Description
The SLIN-12F1Ax series of power modules are non-isolated dc/dc converters that can deliver up to 12A of output
current. These modules operate over a wide range of input voltage (VIN = 2.4Vdc-5.5Vdc) and provide a
precisely regulated output voltage from 0.6Vdc to 3.63Vdc, programmable via an external resistor. Features
include remote On/Off, adjustable output voltage, over current protection, and over temperature protection. A
new feature, the Tunable LoopTM, allows the user to optimize the dynamic response of the converter to match the
load with reduced amount of output capacitance leading to savings on cost and PWB area.

CAUTION: This converter is not internally fused. An input line fuse must be used in application.
This power module can be used in a wide variety of applications, ranging from simple standalone operation to
an integrated part of sophisticated power architecture. To preserve maximum flexibility, internal fusing is not
included; however, to achieve maximum safety and system protection, always use an input line fuse. The safety
agencies require a fast-acting fuse with a maximum rating of 15A. Based on the information provided in this
data sheet on inrush energy and maximum dc input current, the same type of fuse with a lower rating can be
used. Refer to the fuse manufacturer’s data sheet for further information.
Note: Unless otherwise indicated, specifications apply over all operating input voltage, resistive load, and
temperature conditions.
