Operation of uA78M05-Q1 at -55degC

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: TPS71501-EP

Hi All,

 I am using uA78M05-Q1 regulator in my design for one of the aerospace application. My design specification calls for operation of

the device from -55C to 110C. As per the datasheet, operating virtual junction temperature (Tj) is -40C to 125C. Can we use the IC

for my operating temperature conditions?

 Also Please let me know the impact of operating the device at -55C.

-Thanks,

Shihab

    Shihab,

    I do not recommend this device for use at -55C, most likely issue would be start up failure. I can suggest an alternative device.

    I need to know the minimum and maximum input voltage and minimum and maximum load current.

    Regards,

    Hi Ron,

     

     Input Voltage nominal: 12V, Input Voltage Maximum: 15V

    Output Voltage : 5V

    Output current : 50 mA or more

    Package : SMD

    -Thanks,

    Shihab.

    Shihab,

    I attached all the extended temperature products for linear regulators with input voltage greater than 10V.

    There is only one part that allows the full VIN; it is the TPS71501-EP (adjustable output voltage). However the maximum rated output current  is 50mA.
    The other parts support more current but have a VIN limit of 10V. To use these would require droping the input voltage first.
