L4981A Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

  • The maximum input voltage that can be applied to the L4981A is 40V, but it's recommended to keep it below 30V for reliable operation.

  • The inductor value depends on the output current, switching frequency, and input voltage. A good starting point is to use the inductor value recommended in the datasheet (e.g., 10uH) and adjust based on your specific application requirements.

  • The bootstrap capacitor (CBOOT) is used to generate the high-side gate drive voltage. Choose a capacitor with a value between 10nF to 100nF, depending on the switching frequency and output current.

  • Ensure good thermal design, use a heat sink if necessary, and keep the device away from heat sources. Monitor the junction temperature (TJ) and adjust the design as needed to keep TJ below 150°C.

  • The minimum ESR required for the output capacitor depends on the output current and switching frequency. A good rule of thumb is to choose an output capacitor with an ESR of 0.1 ohms or less.
