Description
The Pico TLynx TM 6A power modules are non-isolated dc-dc converters that can deliver up to 6A of output current. These modules
operate over a wide range of input voltage (V
IN
= 2.4Vdc-5.5Vdc) and provide a precisely regulated output voltage from 0.6Vdc to
3.63Vdc, programmable via an external resistor. Features include remote On/Off, adjustable output voltage, over current and
overtemperature protection, and output voltage sequencing (APTH versions). 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.
