NMPD0115C

DC-DC converters are electronic circuits that allow an alternative current (AC) or direct current (DC) to be converted to a different form of power, usually at a different voltage level. The NMPD0115C is an ideal solution for applications that require a low-noise and highly efficient power management system. This article will discuss the application field of the NMPD0115C and its working principle.

Application Field

The NMPD0115C is a DC-DC converter with a 1A continuous output current ideal for LED lighting, automotive and medical electronics, wireless devices, LED displays, and many other low-noise and high-efficiency power management applications. It is specifically designed for LED lighting applications because it can offer excellent performance and reliability. It features a wide operating input voltage range of 4.5V to 18/36V, respectively. It also features short-circuit protection, over voltage protection, and thermal protection.

Working Principle

The NMPD0115C is a constant frequency, non-isolated, step-down converter with synchronous rectification. The converter outputs a steady output voltage that is regulated and adjusted to the requirement of the LED lightings. The constant frequency operation ensures a stable output voltage and current. The switching frequency is programmable via an external resistor. The NMPD0115C also utilizes high-frequency, synchronous rectification technology to ensure a high converter efficiency of 85% or above.

The NMPD0115C includes a built-in input for output trim and remote on/off control. For output trim, the NMPD0115C has an adjustable voltage trim range from 0.5V to 7V. The remote on/off control allows the user to control the power system remotely, providing greater flexibility for the system. In addition, the NMPD0115C also includes under voltage protection, short circuit protection, and thermal protection.
