Description
The PT8100 Excalibur™ power modules are a family of high-output, high-efficiency, fully integrated switching
regulators (ISRs), housed in a solderable 31-pin space-saving copper package. Modules are available for operation from either a 3.3V or 5V nominal input bus voltage. Each provides up to 40A of output current at output voltages as low as 0.8V. The output voltage is programmable via a 5-bit input code.
The PT8100 series incorporates a state-of-the-art, 2-phase, multiple power path topology. This extends the output current range while providing superior transient response
and input current ripple performance. The modules are designed for highend computing and signal processing applications, both of which demand high output currents at low supply voltages.
The modules have a number of standard features to facilitate system integration. These include shortcircuit protection, thermal shutdown, standby (On/Off) control, and an output remote sense to compensate for voltage drop between the
regulator and the load. In addition, the voltage progr...
