VX-5-1A2 Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

  • Omron recommends a PCB layout with a large copper area for heat dissipation, and a thermal via array under the IC to reduce thermal resistance. A thermal pad or heat sink is also recommended to ensure reliable operation.

  • Omron recommends following the derating guidelines in the datasheet, using a heat sink or thermal pad, and ensuring good airflow around the device. Additionally, consider using a thermally conductive adhesive or thermal interface material to improve heat transfer.

  • The maximum allowable voltage drop is typically around 1-2% of the input voltage, depending on the specific application and operating conditions. Exceeding this limit may affect the device's reliability and performance.

  • While the VX-5-1A2 is designed for low-frequency applications, it can be used in high-frequency switching applications with proper design considerations. However, Omron recommends consulting with their application engineers to ensure the device meets the specific requirements and to discuss potential modifications to the device or application.

  • Omron recommends a soldering profile with a peak temperature of 260°C (500°F) and a dwell time of 10-30 seconds. The device is compatible with lead-free soldering processes, but Omron recommends following the specific soldering guidelines in the datasheet or application notes.
