Description
The 12V PicoTLynxTM 2A power modules are non-isolated dc-dc converters that can deliver up to 2A of output current. These
modules operate over a wide range of input voltage (VIN = 3Vdc-14Vdc) 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. A new feature, the Tunable LoopTM, 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.
