The PKM 4000A series of DC/DC power modules
represents another Ericsson "industry first" achieve-
ment in the continued development of our "third
generation" of high density, high efficiency DC/DC
power modules in an industry standard quarter
brick package with unparalleled performance.
These breakthrough features have been achieved by
using the most advanced patented topology, ultiliz-
ing integrated magnetics and synchronous rectifica-
tion on a low resistivity multilayer PCB.
The product features fast dynamic response times
and low output ripple, which are important param-
eters when supplying low voltage logics. The PKM
4000A series is especially suited for limited board
space and high dynamic load applications such as
demanding microprocessors.
Ericsson's PKM 4000A Power Modules address the
converging "New Telecoms" market by specifying
the input voltage range in accordance with ETSI
specifications. The PKM 4000A series also offers
over-voltage protection, under voltage protection,
over temperature protection, soft-start, and is short
circuit proof.
These modules are manufactured using highly auto-
mated manufacturing lines with a world-class quali-
ty commitment and a five-year warranty. Ericsson
Inc., Microelectronics has been an ISO 9001 certi-
fied supplier since 1991.

Stress in excess of Absolute Maximum Ratings may cause permanent
damage. Absolute Maximum Ratings, sometimes referred to as "no
destruction limits," are normally tested with one parameter at a time
exceeding the limits of output data or electrical characteristics. If exposed
to stress above these limits, function and performance may degrade in an
unspecified manner.
