Murata DC/DC PoL Module Adopts Powervation's Technology
Powervation Ltd has announced that its PV3012 digital controller is being used by power supply innovator, Murata Power Solutions in a new DC/DC module.
OKLF-T/25-W12N-C is a non-isolated, DC/DC converter delivering a maximum of 25 A at an output of 1.2 V, when operating up to 70°C with a 200 LFM airflow. The adjustable outputs provide precision regulation from 0.69 V to 3.63 V over a wide input range (6.5 V to 14 V). The new modules are designed for powering the latest FPGAs and ASICs used in networking, telecom, and computing applications.
Murata Power Solutions' OKLF 25 A module, is the first device in the series which the company says is a complete power solution that promises ultra-fast load transient response, exceptional de-rating performance, and >90% typical efficiency in a high power density form-factor.
The module is a complete, stand-alone power supply; with the use of the PV3012 digital control IC, it provides a full-line of protection features and precision set-point accuracy.
Comments Bill Smith, Director of Marketing, and Board Mount Power, for Murata Power Solutions: "Our OKLF 25 A module extends the ease of design-in of POL converters. With the Powervation controller, our module delivers precision set-point accuracy of ±0.5% over line, load, and temperature range "“ far better than analog options. Additionally, this new offering adds value by the use of space saving elevated inductors and Powervation's Auto-Control, while also achieving exceptional de-rating performance."
Powervation's Auto-Control is the industry's leading intelligent auto-tuning technology. The patented adaptive compensation technology optimizes dynamic performance and system stability in real-time without requiring any noise injection or the drawbacks of periodic techniques. This is a key benefit for modules and other designs that drive unknown or variable output loads, and addresses the challenges of load parameter drift that occurs over temperature and time.
Comments Powervation's Vice President of Product Marketing, David New: "With the support of the Okami footprint and Auto-Control, the OKLF 25 A offers a solution that is stable over a wide range of applications, user loading, various capacitor types, and host board parasitics. Additionally, many current module users following the DOSA standard are able to use this module to take advantage of the performance of digital power without redesigning their system."
