Description
The 12V TLynx
TM
series of power modules are non-isolated dc-dc converters that can deliver up to 20A of output
current. These modules operate over a wide range of input voltage (V
IN
= 4.5Vdc-14Vdc) and provide a precisely
regulated output voltage from 0.69Vdc to 5.5Vdc, programmable via an external resistor. Features include
frequency synchronization, remote On/Off, adjustable output voltage, over current and temperature protection,
power good and output voltage sequencing. The Ruggedized version (-D) is capable of operation up to 105°C and
withstand high levels of shock and vibration. The Tunable Loop
TM
, allows the user to optimize the dynamic response
of the converter to match the load with reduced amount of output capacitance leading to savings on cost and PWB
area.
