LT1959IS8#PBF datasheet by Linear Technology

LT1959IS8#PBF Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

• What is the maximum input voltage that the LT1959IS8#PBF can handle?
  The maximum input voltage that the LT1959IS8#PBF can handle is 36V, but it's recommended to operate it within the specified input voltage range of 3.5V to 36V for optimal performance and reliability.
• How do I ensure the stability of the output voltage in my design?
  To ensure the stability of the output voltage, make sure to follow the recommended layout and component selection guidelines in the datasheet, and use a sufficient output capacitor with a low ESR (Equivalent Series Resistance) to minimize output voltage ripple and oscillation.
• What is the minimum input capacitance required for the LT1959IS8#PBF?
  The minimum input capacitance required for the LT1959IS8#PBF is 10uF, but it's recommended to use a higher value (e.g., 22uF) to ensure stable operation and minimize input voltage ripple.
• Can I use the LT1959IS8#PBF in a high-temperature environment?
  The LT1959IS8#PBF is rated for operation up to 125°C, but it's recommended to derate the output current and input voltage at high temperatures to ensure reliable operation and prevent overheating.
• How do I calculate the output voltage of the LT1959IS8#PBF?
  The output voltage of the LT1959IS8#PBF can be calculated using the formula: Vout = 0.8V * (1 + R1/R2), where R1 and R2 are the resistors in the feedback network.
