The maximum input voltage that can be applied to the LTC4055EUF is 18V, but it's recommended to keep it below 15V for reliable operation.
Proper thermal management can be achieved by providing a heat sink or a thermal pad on the exposed pad of the QFN package, and ensuring good airflow around the device.
A 10uF to 22uF X5R or X7R ceramic capacitor is recommended for the input capacitor, placed as close to the VIN pin as possible.
The LTC4055EUF is rated for operation up to 125°C, but the maximum junction temperature should not exceed 150°C. Derate the output current and ensure proper thermal management for high-temperature operation.
The output voltage can be set using an external resistor divider network connected to the FB pin. The datasheet provides a formula to calculate the required resistor values for a specific output voltage.
