  • Description

    The LMZ12003 SIMPLE SWITCHER power module is an easy-to-use step-down DC-DC solution capable of driving up to 3A load with exceptional power conversion efficiency, line and load regulation, and output accuracy. The LMZ12003 is available in an innovative package that enhances thermal performance and allows for hand or machine soldering.

    The LMZ12003 can accept an input voltage rail between 4.5V and 20V and deliver an adjustable and highly accurate output voltage as low as 0.8V. The LMZ12003 only requires three external resistors and four external capacitors to complete the power solution. The LMZ12003 is a reliable and robust design with the following protection features: thermal shutdown, input under-voltage lockout, output over-voltage protection, short-circuit protection, output current limit, and allows startup into a pre-biased output. A single resistor adjusts the switching frequency up to 1 MHz.


    Applications

  • Point of load conversions from 5V and 12V input rail

    Note: The Early Failure Rates (EFR) were calculated as point estimate PPM based on rejects and sample size for EFR. The Long Term Failure Rates were calculated at 60% confidence using the Arrhenius equation at 0.7eV activation energy and derating the assumed stress temperature of 150°C to an application temperature of 55°C.
