Providing a maximum output current of 600mA, the devices feature overload protection and shut down automatically at high temperatures. The converters achieve an efficiency of 92%, making them particularly suitable for battery-powered devices.
The µDC/DC converters can be shut down via an enable input, where the supply current drops to below 1µA. Under light loads, the devices utilise PFM, with a typical low quiescent current of 24µA, to operate in power-save mode. The converters, which feature a fast load transient response, allow light loads to be handled without additional filtering through low ripple voltages and currents.
The B30000P80 series of EPCOS µDC/DC converters are suitable for wearable devices, smart watches and WLAN, GPS and Bluetooth applications. The devices can also be used in camera and sensor modules, optical modules and memory cards.
