EMP11T2R - ROHM Semiconductor

EMP11T2R Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

• What is the recommended PCB layout for optimal performance of the EMP11T2R?
  ROHM recommends a 4-layer PCB with a solid ground plane, and the use of vias to connect the thermal pad to the ground plane. Additionally, keep the input and output traces as short as possible and avoid routing them near noise sources.
• How do I ensure the EMP11T2R is properly thermally managed?
  Use a thermal pad or a heat sink with a thermal conductivity of at least 1 W/m-K. Ensure the thermal pad or heat sink is properly soldered to the device, and consider using thermal interface material (TIM) to improve heat transfer.
• What is the maximum allowed voltage on the input pins of the EMP11T2R?
  The maximum allowed voltage on the input pins is 6V, which is higher than the recommended operating voltage of 5V. However, exceeding 5V may reduce the device's lifespan or cause damage.
• Can I use the EMP11T2R in a high-temperature environment?
  The EMP11T2R is rated for operation up to 125°C, but its performance may degrade at higher temperatures. Consider using a heat sink or thermal management system to keep the device within its recommended operating temperature range.
• How do I handle ESD protection when working with the EMP11T2R?
  Use proper ESD handling procedures, such as wearing an ESD strap, using an ESD mat, and storing the device in an ESD-protective package. The EMP11T2R has built-in ESD protection, but it's still important to handle the device with care.
