DC-DC Converters

DC-DC converters are electronic devices which convert direct current (DC) from one voltage level to another, using either a switch-mode or linear regulator method. In a DC-DC converter, the control of the amount of current drawn from the input source allows the operator to adjust the output voltage of the device. DC-DC converters enable the conversion of voltage levels as high as several hundred volts, while still producing a regulated output voltage, regardless of changes in the input load.

The V375A36H500BN application field and working principle is one of the many DC-DC converter modules designed for various applications. It provides a 36-volt output with a maximum current of 500 mA from a 3.3V or 5V input source. It features a high switching frequency, up to 1.2MHz, and a wide input voltage range. The module has overload, over-temperature, and short circuit protection.

The V375A36H500BN works on a pulse-width modulation (PWM) principle. When a signal is sent to the gate of a high-side MOSFET from the oscillator, the source of the low-side MOSFET is no longer connected to ground; instead, it is connected to the output voltage rail. This setup can change the current and voltage across the load resistor, thus modulating the output voltage. The output voltage is then regulated by duty ratio control, where the ratio of the low-side on time to the total time (on time + off time) is held constant.

The V375A36H500BN is suitable for various applications such as DC-DC converters, voltage regulators, battery-powered circuits, power supplies, etc. It can also be used for field-programmable gate arrays (FPGA), avionic systems, and many other circuits. Its multiple protection features make it ideal for harsh environments. Furthermore, it is a reliable, cost-effective, and energy-efficient solution for many applications.
