As supply voltages trend lower and load currents increase, centralized power
becomes more impractical. The tight accuracy, low noise and quick transient
response demanded by today’s low-voltage CPU’s, ASIC’s and DSP’s make power
processing at the "point of use" the only viable solution. As voltages decrease much
below 3.3V, the task of designing your own circuit to efficiently derive low-voltage
power from higher-voltage buses (5V, 12V, 48V, etc.) becomes significantly more
challenging.
When you are designing power-hungry 2.5V partitions or boards, consider
Murata Power Solutions’ new UNR-2.5/12-D5. This non-isolated, 5V-to-2.5V DC/
DC delivers a full 12 Amps at an impressive 87% efficiency. Packaged in a 1" x 2" x
0.44" metal case, the converter exploits synchronous rectification, planar magnetics
and 100% automatic SMT assembly to bring you an incomparable 30 Watts of 2.5V
power.
The UNR-2.5/12-D5 delivers full power over the –40 to +50°C temperature
range without heat sinking or forced-air cooling. It is fully line (±0.1%) and load
(±0.5%) regulated and features low noise (40mVp-p) and quick (30µsec) transient
response. The unit offers remote on/off control, and it can withstand a sustained
output short circuit with full recovery to rated accuracy.
Designing your own 2.5V step-down buck regulator may be practical for low-
power applications. When you need 12 Amps, the task becomes significantly more
time consuming. Consider that the high efficiency, ease-of-use, and overall cost
effectiveness of Murata Power Solutions’ new 2.5V UNR Series make the quick
solution the best solution.

be driven with any logic circuit capable of meeting the following drive require-
ments. Logic "0" = 0 to +0.8V. Logic "1" = +2.0V to +V

transistor can be used. The drive circuit should be rated for more than 5.5V.
Applying a voltage to pin 2 when no input power is applied to the converter can
cause permanent damage to the converter.

➀
These devices have no minimum load requirements and will regulate under no-load conditions.
➁
Achieving specified performance requires the installation of an external 470µF input capacitor
with an ESR of 20m and an rms ripple current rating of 6 Amps, as well as an external 22µF
output capacitor with an ESR of 200m or less.
➂
No-load/full-load conditions. When the unit is off, the input "standby" current is typically 10mA.

➄
Output noise may be reduced by installing additional external capacitors across the output
terminals. Caps should be selected for low ESR (typically 60mW) and located as close to the
unit as possible.

Overcurrent detection initiates at approximately 30% above rated load, where the output
current "hiccups" at an overage current of 1A and remains there until the short is removed.

As 3.3V CPU’s, DSP’s and PLD’s proliferate and low-voltage currents increase,
the shortcomings of both traditional centralized power architectures and the recently
introduced 3.3V outputs on AC/DC converters become more apparent. The solution
is to locally derive 3.3V power from buses of higher voltage (5V, 12V, 48V, etc.).
"Point-of-use" power processing is the only way to guarantee the tight accuracy, low
noise, and quick transient response required by these new devices.
If you are designing power-hungry 3.3V partitions or boards, consider Murata
Power Solutions’ new UNR-3.3/12-D5. These non-isolated, 5V-to-3.3V DC/DC’s
deliver up to 12 Amps. Packaged in 1" x 2" x 0.44" metal cases, these converters
use synchronous rectification, planar magnetics, and 100% automatic SMT assem-
bly to bring you the most cost-effective 3.3V power.
The 90% efficient UNR-3.3/12-D5 delivers its full 40W output power from
–40 to +50°C without heat sinking or forced-air cooling. It is fully line (±0.1% max.)
and load (±0.5% max.) regulated and features a TTL-compatible on/off control.
These devices can withstand a sustained output short circuit and automatically
recover to rated accuracy.
Designing your own 3.3V step-down buck regulator may be practical for low-
power applications. When you need 12 Amps, the task becomes significantly more
challenging and time consuming. It’s time to consider the high efficiency, ease-of-
use, and overall cost effectiveness of Murata Power Solutions' UNR Series. Safety
agency approvals and full EMI characterizations are currently in progress.
