REF3230AIDBVTG4 datasheet by Texas Instruments

REF3230AIDBVTG4 Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

• What is the recommended output capacitor value for the REF3230AIDBVTG4?
  The recommended output capacitor value is 10uF to 22uF, with a minimum ESR of 5 ohms to ensure stability and noise reduction.
• How do I ensure the REF3230AIDBVTG4 is properly decoupled from the power supply?
  Decouple the REF3230AIDBVTG4 from the power supply using a 0.1uF to 1uF capacitor between the VCC pin and GND, and a 10uF to 22uF capacitor between the output pin and GND.
• What is the maximum output current that the REF3230AIDBVTG4 can supply?
  The maximum output current that the REF3230AIDBVTG4 can supply is 10mA, but it is recommended to limit the output current to 5mA or less to ensure accuracy and stability.
• How does the REF3230AIDBVTG4 behave during power-up and power-down?
  The REF3230AIDBVTG4 has a soft-start feature that prevents output voltage overshoot during power-up, and it also has a built-in power-down detector that disables the output during power-down to prevent unwanted current consumption.
• Is the REF3230AIDBVTG4 suitable for high-temperature applications?
  The REF3230AIDBVTG4 is specified to operate from -40°C to 125°C, making it suitable for high-temperature applications, but it's recommended to derate the output current and ensure proper thermal management to prevent overheating.
