MPM3834CGPA-P

Product Overview

The MPM3834CGPA-P from Monolithic Power Systems Inc. is a non-isolated point-of-load module DC-DC converter with a single output. It accepts an input voltage range of 2.75V to 6V and provides an adjustable output from 0.6V to 6V at up to 3A. The module uses a surface-mount 14-PowerLFLGA package measuring 2.5mm x 2.5mm x 1.2mm. It includes remote on/off control and operates over a temperature range of -40°C to 125°C. The device has an efficiency of 85% and is intended for commercial information technology equipment power conversion tasks where a compact non-isolated rail converter is required.

Key Features

• Single non-isolated PoL output with 2.75V to 6V input and 0.6V to 6V adjustable output.
• Maximum output current of 3A.
• Surface-mount 14-PowerLFLGA module package, 2.5mm x 2.5mm x 1.2mm.
• Remote on/off control.
• Operating temperature range from -40°C to 125°C.
• 85% efficiency.

Applications

• Commercial information technology equipment power rails.
• Point-of-load conversion for digital logic and memory subsystems.
• Adjustable low-voltage rails requiring remote enable or disable control.

Design & Procurement Notes

Design considerations should focus on input and output voltage compatibility, output current headroom, and thermal behavior within the -40°C to 125°C operating range. Because the module is a non-isolated point-of-load converter with an adjustable output from 0.6V to 6V, the output setting and input range must be checked against the load requirement. The 2.5mm x 2.5mm x 1.2mm surface-mount package supports compact board layouts, but pad geometry, thermal relief, and nearby component spacing should be reviewed. Remote on/off control can be used for sequencing or fault isolation. For commercial information technology equipment applications, verify that the 3A maximum output and 85% efficiency meet the system power budget and temperature rise targets.
