Overview

The PTH04040WAH is a high-performance, non-isolated DC-DC power module capable of delivering up to 60A of output current. It operates from an input voltage range of 2.95V to 5.5V and provides a programmable output voltage from 0.8V to 2.5V using a single resistor. This module utilizes a multi-phase switching topology to achieve high efficiency and high power density in a compact through-hole package.

Why Choose This Part

It offers exceptional efficiency up to 93% and includes integrated safety features such as non-latching overcurrent protection and overtemperature shutdown. The Auto-Track technology simplifies complex power-up sequencing requirements for high-performance ICs, while the differential remote sense ensures accurate voltage regulation directly at the load.

Applications

High-End DSP and FPGA Power
Provides the low-voltage, high-current core rails required by advanced digital signal processors and field-programmable gate arrays.
Server and Data Communications
Acts as a point-of-load regulator for high-density computing boards where space and thermal management are critical.
Multi-Voltage System Sequencing
Utilizes the Auto-Track feature to synchronize the output voltage power-up and power-down cycles with other modules in the system.
Pre-biased Load Startup
Safely powers up into loads that already have a voltage present, preventing discharge of output capacitors.

Getting Started

Designers should refer to the datasheet to select the appropriate margin-control and set-point resistors for their target output voltage. The module requires external input and output capacitors for stable operation; specific ESR and capacitance values are detailed in the TI application notes. Evaluation can be performed by integrating the module into a multi-layer PCB designed for high-current thermal dissipation.
