VI Chip® PRM® Modules

VI Chip® PRM® Modules
Description
®
PRM® Modules enable power architects to maximize the
density and performance of their high power designs.
The integration of a high performance Zero-Voltage
Switching (ZVS) topology with custom magnetics results
in a fully integrated buck-boost regulator with over 97%
efficiency. With wide input voltage ranges optimized for
24, 36, 45, and 48 Volt inputs these regulators provide a
regulated 48 Volt output which can be trimmed across a
wide output range. Full sized packages (32.5 x 22 x 6.73
mm) can convert up to 600 Watts of power, also available
in half-sized packages (22 x 16.5 x 6.73 mm) up to
250 Watts. Higher power conversion can be achieved by
arraying modules together.
Use of a ZVS topology enables high-frequency operation
that maximizes efficiency by minimizing the significant
switching losses associated with conventional buck
regulators using hard switching topologies. High switching
frequency also reduces the size of the external filter
components, providing power density while enabling
fast dynamic response to line and load transients
