configuration
• High efficiency: 87% typical @ Vin = 12 V,
Vout = 1.5 V, Iout = 60 A
• Available RoHS compliant
The NXI100 non-isolated dc-dc converter simplifies the application of Intel Xeon(TM) or
Pentium®4 processors by providing a purpose-designed, point-of-load, power management
solution for low-profile applications. Capable of delivering 81 A, and meeting the exceptional
transient response requirements of these loads, the converter comes in a versatile, PCB-
pluggable form. Artesyn utilizes advanced circuit techniques, component selection and
state-of-the-art thermal packaging, to deliver reliable high power density. Multi-phase power
conversion provides industry-leading conversion efficiency without adding unneccesary
complexity, and NXI100 meets the precise regulation specifications of VRM9.0/9.1 without
expensive external components. An active circuit guarantees the current sharing
specification is met during static or dynamic loading conditions.
