Efficient POL converters from Nu Horizons can drive 1000µF capacitive loads The OKY-T/3-W5 and -T/5-W5 series from Murata Power Solutions are now available from Nu Horizons. These DOSA compatible non-isolated point of load (POL) converters offer efficiency up to 94.5% and are able to drive loads with high capacitance (up to 1000µF), making this series suitable for powering applications with tight output load regulation requirements such as the latest generation of FPGAs and DSPs. Application areas include powering CPUs, datacom/telecom systems, distributed bus architectures, programmable logic and mixed voltage systems. The OKY-T/3-W5 and -T/5-W5 series feature wide input voltage range of 2.4 to 5.5VDC with a choice of 3A (T/3 series) or 5A (T/5 series) output currents. Output voltage is user programmable between 0.75 and 3.63V. The modules have exceptional thermal derating performance and provide under-voltage lockout, output short-circuit protection, plus over-current and over-temperature protection. Compact overall dimensions of 20.8…
