TL3016CD datasheet by Texas Instruments

TL3016CD Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

• What is the maximum input voltage that the TL3016CD can handle?
  The TL3016CD can handle input voltages up to 40V, but it's recommended to keep it below 35V for reliable operation.
• How do I ensure the TL3016CD is stable and doesn't oscillate?
  To ensure stability, make sure to use a minimum output capacitance of 10uF, and keep the output voltage ripple below 1% of the output voltage. Also, use a low-ESR capacitor and keep the layout clean and compact.
• What is the maximum output current that the TL3016CD can provide?
  The TL3016CD can provide up to 1.5A of output current, but it's recommended to keep it below 1.2A for reliable operation and to prevent overheating.
• How do I adjust the output voltage of the TL3016CD?
  The output voltage of the TL3016CD can be adjusted by using a resistive divider network between the output pin and the adjust pin. The ratio of the resistors determines the output voltage.
• What is the purpose of the 'EN' pin on the TL3016CD?
  The 'EN' pin is an enable input that allows the user to turn the regulator on or off. When the 'EN' pin is high, the regulator is enabled, and when it's low, the regulator is disabled.
