Description
TM
Austin MicroLynx II SIP power modules are non-isolated dc-dc converters that can deliver up to 6A of output
current with full load efficiency of 96.0% 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 –
TM
TM
5.5Vdc). Austin MicroLynx II has a sequencing feature, EZ-SEQUENCE that enable designers to implement
various types of output voltage sequencing when powering multiple modules on board. 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 MicroLynx II 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.

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 MicroLynx II 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
VIN+
TM
The Austin Lynx II SIP power modules feature an
On/Off pin for remote On/Off operation. Two On/Off logic
options are available in the Austin LynxTM II 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 28. 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 2A.
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.

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
o
thermal reference point Tref, exceeds 150 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.
For negative logic On/Off devices, the circuit
configuration is shown is Figure 29. 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.

Output Voltage Programming
TM
The output voltage of the Austin MicroLynx II SIP can
be programmed to any voltage from 0.75 Vdc to 3.3 Vdc
by connecting a single resistor (shown as Rtrim in Figure
30) 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
⎦
For example, to program the output voltage of the Austin
TM
MicroLynx II module to 1.8 Vdc, Rtrim is calculated is
follows:
⎤
⎡ 21070
− 5110⎥
Rtrim = ⎢
⎦
⎣1.8 − 0.7525
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
TM
Austin MicroLynx II 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 31 shows the circuit
configuration for output voltage margining. The POL
Programming Tool, available at
www.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.

Feature Descriptions (continued)
Voltage Sequencing
Austin MicroLynxTM II series of modules include a
sequencing feature, EZ-SEQUENCETM that enables
users to implement various types of output voltage
sequencing in their applications. This is accomplished
via an additional sequencing pin. When not using the
sequencing feature, either tie the SEQ pin to VIN or leave
it unconnected.
When an analog voltage is applied to the SEQ pin, the
output voltage tracks this voltage until the output reaches
the set-point voltage. The SEQ voltage must be set
higher than the set-point voltage of the module. The
output voltage follows the voltage on the SEQ pin on a
one-to-one volt basis. By connecting multiple modules
together, customers can get multiple modules to track
their output voltages to the voltage applied on the SEQ
pin.
For proper voltage sequencing, first, input voltage is
applied to the module. The On/Off pin of the module is
left unconnected (or tied to GND for negative logic
modules or tied to VIN for positive logic modules) so that
the module is ON by default. After applying input voltage
to the module, a minimum of 10msec delay is required
before applying voltage on the SEQ pin. During this time,
potential of 50mV (± 10 mV) is maintained on the SEQ
pin. After 10msec delay, an analog voltage is applied to
the SEQ pin and the output voltage of the module will
track this voltage on a one-to-one volt bases until output
reaches the set-point voltage. To initiate simultaneous
shutdown of the modules, the SEQ pin voltage is lowered
in a controlled manner. Output voltage of the modules
tracks the voltages below their set-point voltages on a
one-to-one basis. A valid input voltage must be
maintained until the tracking and output voltages reach
ground potential to ensure a controlled shutdown of the
modules.
When using the EZ-SEQUENCETM feature to control
start-up of the module, pre-bias immunity feature during
start-up is disabled. The pre-bias immunity feature of the
module relies on the module being in the diode-mode
TM
during start-up. When using the EZ-SEQUENCE
feature, modules goes through an internal set-up time of
10msec, and will be in synchronous rectification mode
when voltage at the SEQ pin is applied. This will result in
sinking current in the module if pre-bias voltage is present
at the output of the module. When pre-bias immunity
during start-up is required, the EZ-SEQUENCETM feature
must be disabled. For additional guidelines on using EZTM
TM
SEQUENCE feature of Austin MicroLynx II , contact
Lineage Power technical representative for preliminary
application note on output voltage sequencing using

Thermal Considerations
Power modules operate in a variety of thermal
environments; however, sufficient cooling should 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
33. Note that the airflow is parallel to the long axis of the
module as shown in figure 32. 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 RoHScompliant 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
