The RPX sequence of DC/DC converters from RECOM RPX now meets the AEC-Q100 Grade 1 requirement, making it safer and dependable for automotive functions. The brand new converters are available a QFN package deal and embrace ‘wettable flanks’ for Automated Optical Inspection (AOI). The sequence consists of RPX-0.5Q and RPX-1.5Q DC/DCs which have an enter vary as much as 36V, and the output could be trimmed from 0.8V to 30V. The modules require low exterior elements and provide low EMI and glued frequency operations.
In keeping with the corporate, the RPX sequence integrates the mandatory inductor and requires simply exterior enter and output capacitors, scaled for the client’s software, for full performance. On/off management and synchronization inputs are supplied with a power-good output. Delicate begin together with full quick circuit, over-current, over-temperature, and enter under-voltage safety is included. Because of the FCOL development, EMI is low, and fixed-frequency operation makes any required further filtering straightforward to implement.
The RPX sequence consists of RPX-0.5Q and RPX-1.5Q DC/DCs with an enter vary as much as 36V, and the output could be trimmed from 0.8V to 30V. Whereas the RPX-0.5Q variant can ship 0.5A, the RPX-1.5Q can ship as much as 1.5A of present. Each the chips are available a tiny 3 x 5 x 1.6mm leadless, thermally-enhanced QFN package deal, which is able to working at nicely over 100°C ambient with derating. That is made doable by state-of-the-art integration and superior 3D packaging methods utilizing an over-moulded Flip Chip on Leadframe (FCOL) development to supply the bottom package deal thermal resistance whereas retaining manufacturing and end-product pricing low. The RPX sequence additionally gives safety options akin to gentle begin together with full quick circuit, over-current, over-temperature, and enter under-voltage safety. Moreover, it gives On/off management and synchronization inputs are supplied with a power-good output.
Matthew Dauterive, DC/DC Product Supervisor of RECOM feedback, “The success of our RPX vary has spurred us on to additional qualify them to automotive requirements. This provides our prospects additional confidence that they will also be utilized in different software areas akin to industrial or ATE, with excessive reliability.”
