LT1170CQ#TR Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

• What is the maximum input voltage that can be applied to the LT1170CQ?
  The maximum input voltage that can be applied to the LT1170CQ is 15V, but it's recommended to keep it below 12V for optimal performance and reliability.
• How do I ensure stability in the LT1170CQ output voltage?
  To ensure stability in the LT1170CQ output voltage, make sure to use a minimum output capacitance of 10uF, and a maximum ESR of 1 ohm. Also, avoid using ceramic capacitors with high ESL values.
• What is the maximum output current that the LT1170CQ can deliver?
  The maximum output current that the LT1170CQ can deliver is 1.5A, but it's recommended to keep it below 1A for optimal performance and reliability.
• How do I adjust the output voltage of the LT1170CQ?
  The output voltage of the LT1170CQ can be adjusted by using a resistive divider network between the output pin and the adjust pin. The output voltage can be calculated using the formula: Vout = 1.25V x (1 + R1/R2).
• What is the purpose of the adjust pin on the LT1170CQ?
  The adjust pin on the LT1170CQ is used to adjust the output voltage of the regulator. It can also be used to implement a soft-start function or to monitor the output voltage.
