Overview

The PTH12010WAH is a high-performance, non-isolated DC/DC converter module designed to deliver up to 12A of output current from a 12V input. It features a wide-output voltage adjustment range from 1.2V to 5.5V using a single external resistor, providing a compact and efficient power solution for demanding point-of-load applications.

Why Choose This Part

This module offers exceptional power density with a 12A output in a small through-hole footprint. It includes advanced features such as Auto-Track sequencing for multi-rail power-up synchronization, over-temperature protection, and a fast transient response that minimizes the need for large external capacitance.

Applications

Point-of-Load Regulation
High-efficiency power conversion for localized rails on complex digital boards near FPGAs and ASICs.
Industrial Computing
Providing stable 1.2V to 5V rails for single-board computers and industrial controllers.
Telecommunications Infrastructure
Used in networking equipment to derive secondary logic voltages from standard 12V intermediate bus architectures.
Distributed Power Architectures
Integrating into multi-stage power systems where a central 12V supply must be stepped down for various subsystems.

Getting Started

When designing with the PTH12010, ensure the output voltage is set via a 1% tolerance resistor connected between the VO Adjust pin and GND. It is critical to place high-quality ceramic input capacitors near the module pins to handle the high switching currents and maintain stability.
