Instructions for Use:

1. Input Voltage (VIN):

   • Ensure the input voltage is within the range of 2.7V to 5.5V.
   • The input voltage should be stable and free from excessive noise.

2. Output Voltage (VOUT):

   • The OB3396AP provides a fixed output voltage of 3.3V.
   • Use appropriate capacitors on the input and output to stabilize the voltage.

3. Output Current (IOUT):

   • The device can provide up to 3.0A of output current, with a typical value of 1.5A.
   • Ensure the load does not exceed the maximum output current to avoid overheating or damage.

4. Quiescent Current (IQ):

   • The quiescent current is typically 100μA.
   • This is the current consumed by the regulator when no load is present.

5. Dropout Voltage (VD):

   • The dropout voltage is typically 200mV.
   • This is the minimum difference between the input and output voltages required for the regulator to maintain regulation.

6. Thermal Shutdown (TSD):

   • The thermal shutdown temperature is typically 160°C.
   • If the device exceeds this temperature, it will shut down to prevent damage.

7. Operating Temperature Range (TOPR):

   • The operating temperature range is from -40°C to 85°C.
   • Ensure the device operates within this range to avoid performance issues or damage.

8. Storage Temperature Range (TSTG):

   • The storage temperature range is from -40°C to 125°C.
   • Store the device in a dry environment within this temperature range to ensure long-term reliability.

Additional Notes:

• Use appropriate heat sinking if the device is expected to operate at high output currents or in high ambient temperatures.
• Place the input and output capacitors as close as possible to the regulator to minimize parasitic inductance and improve stability.
• For best performance, use low ESR (Equivalent Series Resistance) capacitors, such as ceramic or tantalum types.
