MAX1626ESA+ datasheet by Maxim Integrated Products

MAX1626ESA+ Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

• What is the maximum input voltage that the MAX1626ESA+ can handle?
  The MAX1626ESA+ can handle input voltages up to 28V, but it's recommended to operate within the specified input voltage range of 4.5V to 24V for optimal performance.
• How do I ensure the stability of the output voltage?
  To ensure stability, it's essential to use the recommended output capacitor value and type, and to follow the layout guidelines provided in the datasheet. Additionally, the input capacitor should be placed close to the VIN pin to minimize noise and ensure stability.
• What is the purpose of the EN pin, and how do I use it?
  The EN (enable) pin is used to turn the regulator on or off. When EN is high, the regulator is enabled, and when EN is low, the regulator is disabled. This pin can be used to implement power sequencing or to turn off the regulator when not in use.
• How do I calculate the output voltage of the MAX1626ESA+?
  The output voltage of the MAX1626ESA+ can be calculated using the formula: VOUT = (R1 / R2) * (1 + R2 / R3) * VREF, where R1, R2, and R3 are the resistors used in the feedback network, and VREF is the internal reference voltage (1.25V).
• What is the maximum output current that the MAX1626ESA+ can provide?
  The MAX1626ESA+ can provide up to 1A of output current, but the actual output current may be limited by the input voltage, output voltage, and thermal considerations.
