MPS5179 Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

  • The MPS5179 can operate from -40°C to 125°C, but the maximum junction temperature (TJ) should not exceed 150°C.

  • To ensure stability, make sure to follow the recommended PCB layout guidelines, use a sufficient input and output capacitor, and avoid stray inductance in the circuit. Additionally, the MPS5179 has a built-in compensation network, so no external compensation is required.

  • The MPS5179 can handle input voltages up to 60V, but it's recommended to keep the input voltage below 50V for reliable operation.

  • The MPS5179 is designed for high-current applications and can deliver up to 5A of output current. However, make sure to follow the recommended thermal management guidelines to prevent overheating.

  • The MPS5179 has built-in overvoltage protection (OVP) and undervoltage lockout (UVLO) features. The OVP threshold is typically around 60V, and the UVLO threshold is around 8.5V. Additionally, you can use external protection circuits, such as a voltage supervisor or a crowbar circuit, for added protection.
