Description
The ATH30T033 is a series of high-
current non-isolated power modules.
The product is characterized by high effi-
ciencies, and up to 30 A of output current,
while occupying a mere 1.64 in2 of PCB
area. In terms of cost, size, and perfor-
mance, the series provides OEM’s with a
flexible module that meets the require-
ments of the most complex and demanding
mixed-signal applications. These include
the most densly populated, multi-proces-
sor systems that incorporate high-speed
DSP’s, microprocessors, and ASICs.
The series uses double-sided surface
mount construction and provides high-
performance step-down power conversion
from a 3.3-V input bus voltage. The out-
put voltage of the ATH30T033 can be
set to any value over the range 0.8 V to
2.5 V, using a single resistor.
This series includes Auto-Track.
Auto-Track simplifies power-up and
power-down supply voltage sequencing
in a system by enabling modules to track
each other, or any other external voltage.
Each model also includes an on/off
inhibit, output voltage adjust (trim), and
margin up/down controls. An output
voltage sense ensures tight load regulation,
and an output over-current and thermal
shutdown feature provide for protection
against external load faults.
Package options inlude both through-
hole and surface mount configurations.
