The maximum input voltage that can be applied to the TPS77601DRG4 is 18V, but it's recommended to keep it below 15V for optimal performance and reliability.
To ensure the stability of the output voltage, it's essential to use a suitable output capacitor with a minimum capacitance of 10uF and an ESR (Equivalent Series Resistance) of less than 1 ohm. Additionally, the output capacitor should be placed as close as possible to the output pin of the device.
The minimum input capacitance required for the TPS77601DRG4 is 1uF, but it's recommended to use a higher value (e.g., 4.7uF) to ensure stable operation and reduce input voltage ripple.
The TPS77601DRG4 is rated for operation up to 125°C, but it's essential to consider the thermal design and ensure that the device is properly cooled to prevent overheating. Additionally, the output current may need to be derated at higher temperatures to prevent thermal shutdown.
The output voltage of the TPS77601DRG4 can be calculated using the formula: Vout = 1.2V x (1 + R1/R2), where R1 and R2 are the resistors connected to the FB pin. The output voltage range is from 1.2V to 15V.
