LTC1261CS8 datasheet by Linear Technology

LTC1261CS8 Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

• What is the maximum input voltage that can be applied to the LTC1261CS8?
  The maximum input voltage that can be applied to the LTC1261CS8 is 7V, although the recommended operating range is 4.5V to 5.5V.
• How do I ensure accurate voltage regulation with the LTC1261CS8?
  To ensure accurate voltage regulation, make sure to decouple the input and output pins with suitable capacitors, and keep the output voltage sense lines as short as possible to minimize noise and voltage drops.
• Can I use the LTC1261CS8 in a high-temperature environment?
  The LTC1261CS8 is rated for operation up to 125°C, but the maximum junction temperature (TJ) should not exceed 150°C. Be sure to follow proper thermal design and heat sinking to ensure reliable operation.
• How do I calculate the output voltage of the LTC1261CS8?
  The output voltage of the LTC1261CS8 is determined by the resistor divider network connected to the FB pin. Use the formula: VOUT = 2.5V x (1 + R1/R2), where R1 and R2 are the resistors in the divider network.
• What is the minimum load current required for the LTC1261CS8 to maintain regulation?
  The LTC1261CS8 can maintain regulation down to a minimum load current of 1mA, but it's recommended to ensure a minimum load of 10mA to ensure stable operation.
