The maximum operating temperature range for the VIPER17HDTR is -40°C to 150°C.
To ensure proper cooling, make sure to provide a heat sink with a thermal resistance of less than 10°C/W and ensure good airflow around the device.
The recommended PCB layout for the VIPER17HDTR involves placing the device near the input capacitors, using a solid ground plane, and minimizing the length of the high-current paths.
To protect the VIPER17HDTR from overvoltage and undervoltage conditions, use a voltage supervisor or a voltage monitor IC to detect and respond to abnormal voltage conditions.
The maximum current rating for the VIPER17HDTR is 17A, but this can be limited by the thermal design and the PCB layout.
