Description
The 3A Analog Pico DLynx
power modules are non-isolated dc-dc converters that can deliver up to 3A of output
current. These modules operate over a wide range of input voltage (V
IN
= 3Vdc-14.4Vdc) and provide a precisely
regulated output voltage from 0.6Vdc to 5.5Vdc, programmable via an external resistor. Features include remote
On/Off, adjustable output voltage, over current and over temperature protection. The Tunable Loop
TM
feature 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.
