RECOM introduces the wide input 3A POL series converters with a 3 x 3mm miniature size

     This RPL-3.0 series from RECOM takes the concept of "3D power package" to a higher level. The RPL-3.0 is a small, high-efficiency 3A point-of-load converter with a wide input range from 3V to 18V and adjustable output range from 0.8V to 5.2V. The 10 pad heat enhanced LGA package contains an integrated inductor and a baseboard embedded control IC, measuring 3 x 3mm and 1.45mm high. The RPL-3.0 series features strict voltage regulation, comprehensive protection, output voltage sensing, on/off control, and good power signal. You only need to install input/output capacitors and voltage setting resistors to have a complete PoL solution with operating temperatures up to 120°C with appropriate derating.

     The RPL-3.0 series is ideal for distributed power supply architectures that require high currents and high power density, portable devices, imaging systems, and general telecommunications and industrial applications. The evaluation board RPL-3.0-EVM-1 can demonstrate the performance of the module in customer applications.

     Matthew Dauterive, DC/DC Product Manager at RECOM, said: "With 3A current ratings, wide input and output ranges, and micro-size, our new RPL-3.0 series point-of-load converters deliver performance that cannot be matched by standalone solutions in the same volume. True to our motto: "RECOM always strives for the highest power density."
