Description
With the ever-pressing need to improve power supply efficiency, improve surge rating, improve reliability, and reduce size, the DFxS family sets a standard in perfor- mance.
The design offers an surge rating of 50 A. This is impor- tant when improving reliability and increasing efficiency. High efficiency designs strive to reduce circuit resis- tance, which, unfortunately can result in increased inrush surge. As such high surge current ratings can be required to maintain or improve reliability.
The design also offers better efficiency by achieving a 1.5 A VF of 1.1 V maximum at 25°C. This lower VF also supports cooler and more efficient operation.
Finally, the DFxS achieves all this in a SDIP surface mount form factor, reducing board space and volumetric requirements vs. competitive devices.
