3 Description

The PTH08T250W device is a high-performance 50-A rated, non-isolated power module. This module represents the 2nd generation of the popular PTH series power modules with a reduced footprint and improved features.

Operating from an input voltage range of 4.5 V to 14 V, the device requires a single resistor to set the output voltage to any value over the range of 0.7 V to 3.6 V. The wide input voltage range makes the this device particularly suitable for advanced computing and server applications that utilize a loosely regulated 8-V to 12-V intermediate distribution bus. Additionally, the wide input voltage range increases design flexibility by supporting operation with tightly regulated 5-V, 8-V, or 12-V intermediate bus architectures. The module incorporates a comprehensive list of features. Output overcurrent and overtemperature shutdown protects against most load faults. A differential remote sense ensures tight load regulation. An adjustable undervoltage lockout allows the turnon voltage threshold to be customized. Auto-Track sequencing is a popular feature that greatly simplifies the simultaneous power-up and power-down of multiple modules in a power system. Additionally, the capability to current share between multiple PTH08T250W modules allows for load currents greater than 50 A on a single rail.
