NON-ISOLATED DC/DC CONVERTERS 12V Input / Programmable Output / 40A VRM 9.0 Compatible VRNB-40A180 PRELIMINARY RoHS Compliant • High efficiency means less power dissipation • Remote on/off • 2-Wire Remote sense • Optional 5 bit voltage programming schemes o Intel VRM 9.x compatible 1.1V to 1.85V o Motorola compatible 1.0V to 1.68V • Adaptive voltage positioning Description The VRNB-40A Series are non-isolated step down dc/dc converters providing up to 40A of output current and designed to be compatible to the Intel VRM 9.0 / 9.1 VID codes. Standard features include remote on/off, over current protection, remote sense and a power good signal. This product also makes use of adaptive positioning to improve transient response performance. These products are specifically design to power a wide variety of high performance microprocessors but may be used almost anywhere low-voltage silicon is being employed and a nominal 12V source is available. Typical applications include file servers, work stations and other computing applications.

These models are as follows: VRNB-40A18B: Compensated for capacitor bank utilizing 4-6 820uF Oscon capacitors. VRNB-40A18M: Compensated for Oscon caps but all output voltages are divided by 1.1 yielding an effective range of 1.0 to 1.68V compatible with the requirements for new Motorola microprocessors. Note: Grounding pin 9 of this device doubles the output voltages shown in this table.
