FEATURES
DESCRIPTION
The VI Chip® current multiplier is a high efficiency (>89%)
Sine Amplitude Converter™ (SAC™) operating from a
26 to 55 Vdc primary bus to deliver an isolated output.
The Sine Amplitude Converter offers a low AC impedance
beyond the bandwidth of most downstream regulators, which
means that capacitance normally at the load can be located
at the input to the Sine Amplitude Converter. Since the K factor
of the VTM48EH015T050A00 is 1/32, that capacitance value
can be reduced by a factor of 1024, resulting in savings of
board area, materials and total system cost.
The VTM48EH015T050A00 is provided in a VI Chip® package
compatible with standard pick-and-place and surface mount
assembly processes. The co-molded VI Chip® package provides
enhanced thermal management due to large thermal interface
area and superior thermal conductivity. With high conversion
efficiency the VTM48EH015T050A00 increases overall system
efficiency and lowers operating costs compared to conventional
approaches.
• 48 Vdc to 1.5 Vdc 50 A current multiplier
TM
- Operating from standard 48 V or 24 V PRM regulators
• High efficiency (>89%) reduces system power
consumption
• High density (334 A/in3)
• “Half Chip” VI Chip® package enables surface mount,
low impedance interconnect to system board
• Contains built-in protection features against:
- Overvoltage
- Overcurrent
- Short Circuit
- Overtemperature
• Provides enable/disable control, internal temperature
monitoring, current monitoring
• ZVS/ZCS resonant Sine Amplitude Converter topology
The VTM48EH015T050A00 enables the utilization of Factorized
Power ArchitectureTM providing efficiency and size benefits by
lowering conversion and distribution losses and promoting high
density point of load conversion.
• Less than 50 ºC temperature rise at full load
in typical applications
