MAX1482CSD+ Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

• What is the recommended layout and placement for the MAX1482CSD+?
  The recommended layout and placement for the MAX1482CSD+ involves keeping the input and output traces as short as possible, using a solid ground plane, and placing the device close to the power supply. Additionally, it's recommended to use a 4-layer PCB with a dedicated power plane and a dedicated ground plane.
• How do I ensure the MAX1482CSD+ is properly decoupled?
  To ensure the MAX1482CSD+ is properly decoupled, use a 10uF ceramic capacitor between the VIN pin and the GND pin, and a 1uF ceramic capacitor between the VCC pin and the GND pin. Place these capacitors as close to the device as possible.
• What is the maximum current that the MAX1482CSD+ can handle?
  The MAX1482CSD+ can handle a maximum current of 1A. However, it's recommended to derate the current to 0.8A for reliable operation.
• How do I adjust the output voltage of the MAX1482CSD+?
  The output voltage of the MAX1482CSD+ can be adjusted by using a resistive divider network between the VOUT pin and the ADJ pin. The output voltage can be calculated using the formula: VOUT = 1.25 x (1 + R1/R2).
• What is the thermal shutdown temperature of the MAX1482CSD+?
  The thermal shutdown temperature of the MAX1482CSD+ is typically 150°C. The device will shut down when the junction temperature exceeds this value, and will restart when the temperature drops below 130°C.
