Description
TM
Austin MiniLynx SMT (surface mount technology) power modules are non-isolated dc-dc converters that can
deliver up to 3A of output current with full load efficiency of 94.0% at 3.3V output. These modules provide a
precisely regulated output voltage programmable via an external resistor from 0.75Vdc to 3.63Vdc over a wide
range of input voltage (VIN = 2.4 – 5.5Vdc). Their open-frame construction and small footprint enable designers to
develop cost- and space-efficient solutions.

CAUTION: This power module is not internally fused. An input line fuse must always be used.
This power module can be used in a wide variety of applications, ranging from simple standalone operation to being
part of a complex power architecture. To preserve maximum flexibility, internal fusing is not included, however, to
achieve maximum safety and system protection, always use an input line fuse. The safety agencies require a fastacting fuse with a maximum rating of 6 A (see Safety Considerations section). Based on the information provided in
this data sheet on inrush energy and maximum dc input current, the same type of fuse with a lower rating can be
used. Refer to the fuse manufacturer’s data sheet for further information.

The Austin MiniLynx SMT module should be
connected to a low-impedance source. A highly
inductive source can affect the stability of the module.
An input capacitance must be placed directly adjacent
to the input pin of the module, to minimize input ripple
voltage and ensure module stability.
To minimize input voltage ripple, low-ESR polymer
and ceramic capacitors are recommended at the input
of the module. Figure 28 shows the input ripple
voltage (mVp-p) for various outputs with 1x22µF
(TDK: C3225X5R0J226V) ceramic capacitor at the
input of the module. Figure 29 shows the input ripple
with 1x47µF (TDK: C3225X5R0J476M) ceramic
capacitor at full load.

Safety Considerations
Output Filtering
For safety agency approval the power module must
be installed in compliance with the spacing and
separation requirements of the end-use safety agency
standards, i.e., UL 60950-1, CSA C22.2 No. 60950-103, and VDE 0850:2001-12 (EN60950-1) Licensed.
TM
The Austin MiniLynx SMT module is designed for
low output ripple voltage and will meet the maximum
output ripple specification with 1 µF ceramic and 10
µF tantalum capacitors at the output of the module.
However, additional output filtering may be required
by the system designer for a number of reasons.
First, there may be a need to further reduce the
output ripple and noise of the module. Second, the
dynamic response characteristics may need to be
customized to a particular load step change.
To reduce the output ripple and improve the dynamic
response to a step load change, additional
capacitance at the output can be used. Low ESR
polymer and ceramic capacitors are recommended to
improve the dynamic response of the module. For
stable operation of the module, limit the capacitance
to less than the maximum output capacitance as
specified in the electrical specification table.
LINEAGE POWER
For the converter output to be considered meeting the
requirements of safety extra-low voltage (SELV), the
input must meet SELV requirements. The power
module has extra-low voltage (ELV) outputs when all
inputs are ELV.
The input to these units is to be provided with a fastacting fuse with a maximum rating of 6A in the
positive input lead.

Feature Description
VIN+
Remote On/Off
TM
The Austin MiniLynx SMT power modules feature
an On/Off pin for remote On/Off operation. Two
On/Off logic options are available in the Austin
MiniLynxTM series modules. Positive Logic On/Off
signal, device code suffix “4”, turns the module ON
during a logic High on the On/Off pin and turns the
module OFF during a logic Low. Negative logic
On/Off signal, no device code suffix, turns the module
OFF during logic High on the On/Off pin and turns the
module ON during logic Low.
For positive logic modules, the circuit configuration for
using the On/Off pin is shown in Figure 30. The
On/Off pin is an open collector/drain logic input signal
(Von/Off) that is referenced to ground. During a logichigh (On/Off pin is pulled high internal to the module)
when the transistor Q1 is in the Off state, the power
module is ON. Maximum allowable leakage current of
the transistor when Von/off = VIN,max is 10µA.
Applying a logic-low when the transistor Q1 is turnedOn, the power module is OFF. During this state
VOn/Off must be less than 0.3V. When not using
positive logic On/off pin, leave the pin unconnected or
tie to VIN.

For negative logic On/Off devices, the circuit
configuration is shown is Figure 31. The On/Off pin is
pulled high with an external pull-up resistor (typical
Rpull-up = 5k, +/- 5%). When transistor Q1 is in the Off
state, logic High is applied to the On/Off pin and the
power module is Off. The minimum On/off voltage for
logic High on the On/Off pin is 1.5Vdc. To turn the
module ON, logic Low is applied to the On/Off pin by
turning ON Q1. When not using the negative logic
On/Off, leave the pin unconnected or tie to GND.

Overcurrent Protection
To provide protection in a fault (output overload)
condition, the unit is equipped with internal
current-limiting circuitry and can endure current
limiting continuously. At the point of current-limit
inception, the unit enters hiccup mode. The unit
operates normally once the output current is brought
back into its specified range. The typical average
output current during hiccup is 2A.
Input Undervoltage Lockout
At input voltages below the input undervoltage lockout
limit, module operation is disabled. The module will
begin to operate at an input voltage above the
undervoltage lockout turn-on threshold.
Overtemperature Protection
To provide over temperature protection in a fault
condition, the unit relies upon the thermal
protection feature of the controller IC. The unit will
shutdown if the thermal reference point Tref,
o
exceeds 140 C (typical), but the thermal shutdown
is not intended as a guarantee that the unit will
survive temperatures beyond its rating. The
module will automatically restart after it cools down.
Output Voltage Programming
TM
The output voltage of the Austin MiniLynx SMT can
be programmed to any voltage from 0.75 Vdc to 3.63
Vdc by connecting a single resistor (shown as Rtrim
in Figure 32) between the TRIM and GND pins of the
module. Without an external resistor between TRIM
pin and the ground, the output voltage of the module
is 0.7525 Vdc. To calculate the value of the resistor
Rtrim for a particular output voltage Vo, use the
following equation:
⎡ 21070
⎤
Rtrim = ⎢
− 5110⎥ Ω
⎣Vo − 0.7525

Thermal Considerations
Power modules operate in a variety of thermal
environments; however, sufficient cooling should
always be provided to help ensure reliable operation.
Considerations include ambient temperature, airflow,
module power dissipation, and the need for increased
reliability. A reduction in the operating temperature of
the module will result in an increase in reliability. The
thermal data presented here is based on physical
measurements taken in a wind tunnel. The test setup is shown in Figure 35. Note that the airflow is
parallel to the long axis of the module as shown in
figure 34. The derating data applies to airflow in
either direction of the module’s long axis.

modules have a relatively large mass when compared
to conventional SMT components. Variables such as
nozzle size, tip style, vacuum pressure and pick &
placement speed should be considered to optimize
this process. The minimum recommended nozzle
diameter for reliable operation is 3mm. The maximum

Lead Free Soldering
The –Z version Austin MiniLynx SMT modules are
lead-free (Pb-free) and RoHS compliant and are both
forward and backward compatible in a Pb-free and a
SnPb soldering process. Failure to observe the
instructions below may result in the failure of or cause
damage to the modules and can adversely affect
long-term reliability.
Pb-free Reflow Profile
Power Systems will comply with J-STD-020 Rev. C
(Moisture/Reflow Sensitivity Classification for
Nonhermetic Solid State Surface Mount Devices) for
both Pb-free solder profiles and MSL classification
procedures. This standard provides a recommended
forced-air-convection reflow profile based on the
volume and thickness of the package (table 4-2). The
suggested Pb-free solder paste is Sn/Ag/Cu (SAC).
The recommended linear reflow profile using
Sn/Ag/Cu solder is shown in Figure. 39.
required for MSL ratings of 2 or greater. These
sealed packages should not be broken until time of
use. Once the original package is broken, the floor
life of the product at conditions of ≤ 30°C and 60%
relative humidity varies according to the MSL rating
(see J-STD-033A). The shelf life for dry packed SMT
packages will be a minimum of 12 months from the
bag seal date, when stored at the following conditions:
< 40° C, < 90% relative humidity.
Post Solder Cleaning and Drying
Considerations
Post solder cleaning is usually the final circuit-board
assembly process prior to electrical board testing. The
result of inadequate cleaning and drying can affect
both the reliability of a power module and the
testability of the finished circuit-board assembly. For
guidance on appropriate soldering, cleaning and
drying procedures, refer to Board Mounted Power
