Instructions for Use:
Input Voltage (VIN):
- Ensure the input voltage is within the specified range (12V to 18V) to avoid damage or inefficient operation.
Output Voltage (VOUT):
- The output voltage is fixed at 5V. No external adjustments are necessary.
Output Current (IOUT):
- The device can provide up to 6.5A continuously. For reliable operation, ensure that the load does not exceed 6A to maintain optimal performance and longevity.
Efficiency (η):
- The typical efficiency is around 92% to 95% at full load. This ensures minimal power loss and heat generation.
Dropout Voltage (VDROP):
- The dropout voltage is typically 0.3V to 0.5V. Ensure the input voltage is at least this much higher than the output voltage to maintain regulation.
Quiescent Current (IQ):
- The quiescent current is very low, typically between 10μA and 20μA, which helps in reducing power consumption when the load is minimal.
Ripple Rejection (ψR):
- The device provides good ripple rejection, typically between 60dB and 80dB at 100kHz, ensuring a clean output voltage.
Operating Temperature (TOP):
- The operating temperature range is from -40°C to 125°C. Ensure adequate cooling if the device is expected to operate near the upper limit.
Storage Temperature (TSTG):
- The storage temperature range is from -65°C to 150°C. Store the device in a dry, cool place to prevent damage.
Thermal Resistance (θJA):
- The thermal resistance is typically between 35°C/W and 45°C/W. Proper heatsinking is recommended for high current applications to dissipate heat effectively.
Package Type:
- The device comes in a TO-220 package. Ensure proper mounting and soldering techniques to avoid mechanical stress and ensure good thermal contact.
Additional Notes:
- Always refer to the datasheet for the most accurate and detailed information.
- For high current applications, consider using a heatsink to improve thermal performance.
- Ensure all connections are secure and free from shorts to prevent damage to the device.
