DLynx III

The digital DLynx III™ power modules are easy to use, highly configurable non-isolated DC-DC converters that can deliver from 15A up to 320A of output current in both stand-alone and master/satellite configurations.

The MLX/SLX-series operates over a wide input voltage range from 7 VDC to 14 VDC, providing PMBus™-programmable output voltages from 0.45 VDC to 2.0 VDC. With the MLX and SLX DC/DC converters, master modules can either operate as standalone modules or be paired with SLX satellite modules to deliver increased maximum output current for a single output or to provide a second independent, digitally controlled output to power multiple loads. 

The FPLX-series extends the product family with stand-alone 15A, 20A, and 30A modules that are available in compact, 10mm x 10mm common footprints – providing flexibility for applications requiring lower power ranges. The FPLX modules also provide wide input and output voltage ranges, making them well suited for a broad range of applications.
