Hello
Im using the PTR08100W to build the 5V for my firewall ( a small PC).
The firewall uses max 5A. Normaly it needs 2-3A.
Im using the circuit diagram from page 1 of the data sheet.
The input voltage is 12V.Here are some more data.
Ci=330µF
Co=330µF+2200µF+1000µF=3500µF
parallel to Ci and C0 are 2 ceramic Capacitors 10uF.
My question
Is it normal that the PTR08100W (special the inductor). Its getting so hot that I cannot touch it longer than 1 sec.
Greetings Christoph
