High-density 6-A power module

Texas Instruments’ TPS84610 is a power module with integral inductor that combines high power density and efficiency with low noise and improved thermal performance. The 6-V, 6-A synchronous integrated module achieves 750 W/ in3 and peak power efficiency up to 97%, with thermal performance of 12°C/W. Use it in telecom power designs for DSPs and FPGAs: it combines inductor and passives onto one lead frame, requiring only three external components for a complete, easy-to-design 150-mm2 solution. It accepts 2.95 V to 6 V, generates a low 0.8-V output and has an adjustable switching frequency from 500kHz to 2 MHz. The 9 x 11 x 2.8-mm low-noise module meets EN55022 Class B electromagnetic emissions and costs $6.50 (1,000).
