Industry's smallest 36-V, 1-A DC/DC step-down power module shrinks board space by up to 58 percentDALLAS, Feb. 23, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- Texas Instruments (TI) (NASDAQ: TXN) today introduced two new 4-V to 36-V power modules that measure just 3.0 mm by 3.8 mm and require only two external components for operation. The 0.5-A LMZM23600 and 1-A LMZM23601 DC/DC step-down converters achieve up to 92 percent efficiency, which minimizes energy loss, and feature tiny MicroSiP™ packaging that shrinks board space by up to 58 percent. The converters expand TI's power module portfolio to address up to 1-A performance-driven, space-constrained communication and industrial designs, including field transmitters, ultrasound scanners and network security cameras. For more information, samples and evaluation modules, see ti.com/lmzm23601. TI will demonstrate the 1-A LMZM23601 power module in booth No. 501 at the Applied Power Electronics Conference (APEC) in San Antonio, Texas, March 6-8, 2018. Read this blog post to find out about all of the products TI will unveil at APEC, as well as end-to-end power-management system solutions including hardware, software and reference designs that help engineers get to market quickly. The LMZM23600 and LMZM23601 modules are offered with either fixed 5-V or 3.3-V output voltages, or with external synchronization and adjustable 2.5-V to 15-V output voltages. The LMZM23601 features a mode pin that allows flexibility to operate at a fixed frequency for low electromagnetic interference (EMI), or an automatic pulse frequency modulation control mode for high efficiency at light loads. Read the white paper, "Simplify low EMI design with power modules," to understand the EMI advantages of modules verses discrete converters. Key features and benefits of the LMZM23600 and LMZM23601
