Description
The Austin MegaLynx ATM series SMT power modules are non-isolated DC-DC converters in an industry standard package that can
deliver up to 30A of output current with a full load efficiency of 92% at 1.8Vdc output voltage (VIN = 3.3Vdc). These modules operate
off an input voltage from 2.7 to 4.0Vdc and provide an output voltage that is programmable from 0.8 to 2.0Vdc. They have a
sequencing feature that enables designers to implement various types of output voltage sequencing when powering multiple modules
on the board. Additional features include remote On/Off, adjustable output voltage, remote sense, over current, over temperature
protection and active current sharing between modules.

Absolute Maximum Ratings
Stresses in excess of the absolute maximum ratings can cause permanent damage to the device. These are absolute stress ratings only,
functional operation of the device is not implied at these or any other conditions in excess of those given in the operations sections of
the data sheet. Exposure to absolute maximum ratings for extended periods can adversely affect the device reliability.
