Description
The 16V Pico TLynx
TM
4A power modules are non-isolated dc-dc converters that can deliver up to 4A of output current.
These modules operate over a wide range of input voltage (V
IN
= 8Vdc-16Vdc) and provide a precisely regulated output
voltage from 0.59Vdc to 8.0 Vdc, programmable via an external resistor. Features include remote On/Off, adjustable output
voltage, over current and over temperature protection. A new feature, 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.
