TPS73501DRBR datasheet by Texas Instruments

TPS73501DRBR Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

• What is the maximum input voltage that the TPS73501DRBR can handle?
  The maximum input voltage is 12V, but it's recommended to keep it below 10V for optimal performance and to prevent overheating.
• How do I ensure stability with the TPS73501DRBR?
  To ensure stability, use a minimum output capacitance of 10uF, and a maximum ESR of 1 ohm. Also, place the output capacitor close to the regulator.
• Can I use the TPS73501DRBR in a high-temperature environment?
  The TPS73501DRBR is rated for operation up to 125°C, but thermal derating is required above 85°C. Ensure proper heat sinking and thermal management to prevent overheating.
• How do I calculate the power dissipation of the TPS73501DRBR?
  Power dissipation (PD) can be calculated using the formula: PD = (VIN - VOUT) x IOUT. Ensure the calculated PD is within the maximum rating of 1.4W.
• What is the minimum input capacitance required for the TPS73501DRBR?
  A minimum input capacitance of 1uF is recommended to ensure stability and prevent oscillations.
