Product Details
The Himalaya series of voltage regulator ICs and power modules enable cooler, smaller, and simpler power-supply solutions. The MAXM15068 is a high-efficiency, synchronous step-down DC-DC module with integrated controller, MOSFETs, compensation components, and inductor that operates over a wide input-voltage range. The module operates from 7.5V to 60V input and delivers up to 200mA output current over a programmable output voltage from 5V to 12V. The module significantly reduces design complexity, manufacturing risks, and offers a true plug and play power/supply solution, reducing time-to-market.
The MAXM15068 employs peak-current-mode control architecture. To reduce input inrush current, the device offers a fixed 3.75ms soft-start time.
The MAXM15068 module is available in a low profile, compact 10-pin, 2.6mm × 3mm × 1.5mm, uSLIC™ package.
Applications
- Industrial Sensors and Process Control
- 4-20mA Current-Loop Powered Sensors
- LDO Replacement
