SynQor Corp. announced the launch of two new families of Non-Isolated, Surface Mount, Point of Load converters within its NiQor family, which have the benefit of ultra wide input and output configurations to address the growing demands of Intermediate Bus Architecture (IBA) applications.
The NQ16W50SMA16 has an input voltage range of 6-16V, making it capable of being used in conjunction with 4:1, 5:1 and even 6:1 Bus Converter strategies, and an output voltage range of 0.75 to 5.5V which is programmable by a single external resistor, thereby considerably reducing inventory levels at the OEM. Similarly the NQ04W33SMA16 operates over an input voltage range of 2.4-6V and has an output voltage trim range of 0.75-3.6V. The efficiencies of the devices are as high as 94%, leading to minimal derating requirements across the entire output voltage range.
Both devices are packaged in the DOSA compatible 1.3" x 0.53" footprint and DOSA standard SMT pinout to ensure true second sourcing capabilities. New to this range of NiQor devices is the sequencing/tracking feature which greatly simplifies the implementation of various different output voltage timing requirements when using multiple point of load devices in a particular application with multiple voltage chipsets. Control and protection features include optional remote sense, input under-voltage lockout, output OVP, output current limiting, short circuit protection, and thermal shutdown. Operating temperature range is -40 to +105°C. The devices are fully RoHS compliant.
Sample and production quantities are available immediately with a stock to 8-week lead-time. The modules are priced at $15.80 in OEM quantities.
