12V TLynxTM: Non-isolated DC-DC Power Modules
July 24, 2009
4.5 – 14Vdc input; 0.69Vdc to 5.5Vdc output; 20A output current
application to meet output ripple and noise
requirements. Selecting RTUNE and CTUNE according to
Table 2 will ensure stable operation of the module.
In applications with tight output voltage limits in the
presence of dynamic current loading, additional output
capacitance will be required. Table 3 lists
recommended values of RTUNE and CTUNE in order to
meet 2% output voltage deviation limits for some
common output voltages in the presence of a 10A to
20A step change (50% of full load), with an input
voltage of 12V.
Please contact your Lineage Power technical
representative to obtain more details of this feature as
well as for guidelines on how to select the right value
of external R-C to tune the module for best transient
performance and stable operation for other output
capacitance values or input voltages other than 12V.

and CTUNE for Vin=12V and various external
ceramic capacitor combinations.
