MP2625GL-Z Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

• What is the recommended PCB layout for optimal performance?
  A good PCB layout for the MP2625GL-Z should include a solid ground plane, separate analog and digital grounds, and a decoupling capacitor (e.g., 10uF) between VIN and GND. Additionally, keep the input and output capacitors close to the IC and use short, wide traces for the power paths.
• How do I ensure stability and prevent oscillations?
  To ensure stability, use a minimum output capacitance of 10uF, and ensure the output capacitor's ESR is less than 1 ohm. Also, avoid using ceramic capacitors with high ESL (Equivalent Series Inductance) as they can cause oscillations.
• What is the maximum input voltage that can be applied to the MP2625GL-Z?
  The maximum input voltage for the MP2625GL-Z is 24V, but it's recommended to keep the input voltage below 18V for optimal performance and reliability.
• How do I calculate the output voltage of the MP2625GL-Z?
  The output voltage of the MP2625GL-Z can be calculated using the formula: VOUT = 0.8V x (1 + R1/R2), where R1 and R2 are the resistors in the feedback network.
• What is the maximum output current that the MP2625GL-Z can deliver?
  The maximum output current of the MP2625GL-Z is 2A, but it's recommended to keep the output current below 1.5A for optimal performance and reliability.
