Description
Austin MiniLynxTM SIP (single-in-line) 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. In addition to sequencing, standard features include remote On/Off, programmable output
voltage and over current protection.

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 SIP 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. 60950-1-03, and VDE
0850:2001-12 (EN60950-1) Licensed.
TM
The Austin MiniLynx SIP 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

Remote On/Off
MODULE
Rpull-up
TM
The Austin MiniLynx SIP 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 logic-high
(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 turned-On, 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.

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 3.5A.

Figure 30. Circuit configuration for using positive

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 Rpullup = 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.
LINEAGE POWER
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, exceeds 140oC
(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
The output voltage of the Austin MiniLynxTM SIP 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

.
7525
⎣
⎦
For example, to program the output voltage of the
TM
Austin MiniLynx module to 1.8 Vdc, Rtrim is calculated
is follows:
⎤
⎡ 21070
Rtrim = ⎢
− 5110⎥
⎦
⎣1.8 − 0.7525
Rtrim = 15.004 kΩ
V IN(+)
By using a 1% tolerance trim resistor, set point
tolerance of ±2% is achieved as specified in the
electrical specification. The POL Programming Tool,
available at www.lineagepower.com under the Design
Tools section, helps determine the required external
trim resistor needed for a specific output voltage.
Voltage Margining
Output voltage margining can be implemented in the
Austin MiniLynxTM modules by connecting a resistor,
Rmargin-up, from the Trim pin to the ground pin for
margining-up the output voltage and by connecting a
resistor, Rmargin-down, from the Trim pin to the Output pin
for margining-down. Figure 33 shows the circuit
configuration for output voltage margining. The POL
Programming Tool, available at ww.lineagepower.com
under the Design Tools section, also calculates the
values of Rmargin-up and Rmargin-down for a specific output
voltage and % margin. Please consult your local
Lineage Power technical representative for additional
details.

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 set-up
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.

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 Modules: Soldering and
Cleaning Application Note.
Through-Hole Lead-Free Soldering
Information
The RoHS-compliant through-hole products use the
SAC (Sn/Ag/Cu) Pb-free solder and RoHS-compliant
components. They are designed to be processed
through single or dual wave soldering machines. The
pins have an RoHS-compliant finish that is compatible
with both Pb and Pb-free wave soldering processes. A
maximum preheat rate of 3°C/s is suggested. The wave
preheat process should be such that the temperature of
the power module board is kept below 210°C. For Pb
solder, the recommended pot temperature is 260°C,
while the Pb-free solder pot is 270°C max. Not all
RoHS-compliant through-hole products can be
processed with paste-through-hole Pb or Pb-free reflow
process. If additional information is needed, please
consult with your Lineage Power technical
representative for more details.
