Instructions for BD909
Input Voltage (VIN):
- Ensure the input voltage is within the range of 4.5V to 36V.
- Avoid connecting the input to voltages outside this range to prevent damage to the device.
Output Voltage (VOUT):
- The output voltage can be adjusted between 0.8V and 36V.
- Use the external resistor network to set the desired output voltage according to the datasheet formula.
Output Current (IOUT):
- The device can provide a continuous output current up to 3A, with a typical value of 2.5A.
- For higher currents, ensure proper heat dissipation and consider using additional cooling methods.
Quiescent Current (IQ):
- The quiescent current is typically 10μA and can go up to 15μA under no-load conditions.
- This low quiescent current helps in reducing power consumption in low-power applications.
Efficiency (η):
- The efficiency is typically 92% when operating at VIN=12V, VOUT=5V, and IOUT=1A.
- Efficiency may vary depending on the specific operating conditions.
Switching Frequency (fSW):
- The default switching frequency is 650kHz.
- This frequency can be adjusted if necessary by modifying the external components.
Operating Temperature (TOPR):
- The device can operate within a temperature range of -40°C to 85°C.
- Ensure the ambient temperature does not exceed these limits to avoid thermal shutdown.
Storage Temperature (TSTG):
- The storage temperature range is from -40°C to 150°C.
- Store the device in a dry and cool environment to maintain its performance.
Thermal Shutdown (TSD):
- The device will automatically shut down if the temperature exceeds 160°C.
- This feature protects the device from overheating and potential damage.
Additional Notes:
- Always refer to the datasheet for detailed information and specific application notes.
- Ensure proper PCB layout and component selection to optimize performance and reliability.
