TYPICAL APPLICATIONS
DESCRIPTION
The V
•
I Chip™ current multiplier is a high efficiency (>94%)
Sine Amplitude Converter™ (SAC™) operating from a
26 to 48 Vdc primary bus to deliver an isolated output.
The Sine Amplitude Converter offers a low AC impedance
beyond the bandwidth of most downstream regulators, which
means that capacitance normally at the load can be located
at the input to the Sine Amplitude Converter. Since the K factor
of the VTM48FH060T020A00 is 1/8, that capacitance value can
be reduced by a factor of 64, resulting in savings of board area,
materials and total system cost.
The VTM48FH060T020A00 is provided in a V
•
I Chip package
compatible with standard pick-and-place and surface mount
assembly processes. The co-molded V
•
I Chip package provides
enhanced thermal management due to large thermal interface
area and superior thermal conductivity. With high conversion
efficiency the VTM48FH060T020A00 increases overall system
efficiency and lowers operating costs compared to conventional
approaches.
The VTM48FH060T020A00 enables the utilization of Factorized
Power Architecture
TM
providing efficiency and size benefits by
lowering conversion and distribution losses and promoting high
density point of load conversion.
