Texas Instruments Power Modules PTH05030W

The PTH05030W is a high-current, non-isolated power module designed for efficient step-down power conversion from a 5-V input. It can deliver up to 30 A of output current and features a wide output voltage adjustment range from 0.8 V to 3.6 V, which can be set using a single resistor. The module boasts a power density of 180 W/in² and efficiencies reaching up to 94%. Key features include on/off inhibit control, pre-bias startup capability, and Auto-Track,Ñ¢ sequencing for synchronized power-up and power-down of multiple modules. It also incorporates output over-current protection and over-temperature protection to safeguard against load faults. The operating temperature range is from -40 °C to +85 °C, making it suitable for various environments. The PTH05030W is compatible with Point-of-Load Alliance (POLA) standards and has received safety agency approvals including UL 1950 and CSA 22.2 950. Its compact size of 1.37 in x 1.12 in allows for efficient use of PCB space, making it a viable option for complex mixed-signal applications, such as multi-processor systems.
