PART NUMBER: VPOL16A-12-SMT
1. Introduction
This application note describes the features and functions of V-Infinity’s
VPOL16A-12-SMT series of non-isolated dc-dc converters. These are
highly efficient, reliable and compact, high power density, single output
dc-dc converters. These “Point of Load” modules serve the needs
specifically of the fixed and mobile telecommunications and computing
market, employing economical distributed Power Architectures. The
VPOL16A-12-SMT series provide precisely regulated output voltage
range from 0.75V to 5.0Vdc over a wide range of input voltage (Vi=9.0 –
14Vdc) and can operate over an ambient temperature range of –40°C
to +85°C. Ultr a-high efficiency operation is achieved through the use of
synchronous rectification and drive control techniques.
The modules are fully protected against short circuit and over-
temperature conditions. V-Infinity’s world class automated
manufacturing methods, together with an extensive testing and
qualification program, ensure that all VPOL16A-12-SMT series
converters are extremely reliable.

3. General Description
3.1 Electrical Description
A block diagram of the VPOL16A-12-SMT Series converter is shown in
Figure 1. Extremely high efficiency power conversion is achieved
through the use of synchronous rectification and drive techniques.
Essentially, the powerful VPOL16A-12-SMT series topology is based on
a non-isolated synchronous buck converter. The control loop is
optimized for unconditional stability, fast transient response and a very
tight line and load regulation. In a typical pre-bias application the
VPOL16A-12-SMT series converters do not draw any reverse current at
start-up. The output voltage can be adjusted from 0.75 to 5.0vdc, using
the TRIM pin with a external resistor. The converter can be shut down
via a remote ON/OFF input that is referenced to ground. This input is
compatible with popular logic devices; a 'positive' logic input is supplied
as standard. Positive logic implies that the converter is enabled if the
remote ON/OFF input is high (or floating), and disabled if it is low.

DESCRIPTION: point of load converter
The converter is also protected against over-temperature conditions. If
the converter is overloaded or the ambient temperature gets too high,
the converter will shut down to protect the unit.
3.2 Thermal Packaging and Physical Design.
The VPOL16A-12-SMT series uses a multi-layer FR4 PCB
construction. All surface mount power components are placed on one
side of the PCB, and all low-power control components are placed on
the other side. Thus, the heat dissipation of the power components is
optimized, ensuring that control components are not thermally stressed.
The converter is an open-frame product and has no case or case pin.
The open-frame design has several advantages over encapsulated
closed devices. Among these advantages are:
