NON-ISOLATED DC/DC CONVERTERS 12 Vdc Input Vref/2 / 10 A Output VRPC-10AT5x RoHS Compliant Rev.A • Non-Isolated • Remote On/Off • High Efficiency • Under-voltage Lockout (UVLO) • High Power Density • OCP/SCP • Low Cost • Remote Sense Description The VRPC-10AT5x is a non-isolated step down dc/dc converter that operates from a nominal 12 V source. This converter is designed specifically to provide bus termination voltages in applications such as DDR (double data rate) memory where the bus termination voltage must closely track the I/O bus voltage. The converter accepts a reference input and uses this to program its output voltage to 50% of the reference. The unit is packaged in an industry-standard single-in-line footprint and provides a maximum 10 A output. Standard features include remote on/off, input under-voltage lockout, over current protection and remote sense. Replace “x” in the part number with “S” or “A” depending on your specific application and specific external capacitor bank. Part Selection Output Voltage Input Voltage Vref/2 Vref/2 12 V 12 V Max.
