element14 offers an exclusive range of DC-DC Integrated Fixed Point-of-Load (POL) converters that ensure precise voltage regulation and fast transient response. Their compact form factor and advanced protection features—such as overcurrent, overvoltage, and thermal shutdown—enhance system safety and durability.
A DC-DC Integrated Fixed Point-of-Load (POL) Converter is a power supply DC-to-DC converter placed near the load as possible to achieve proximity to power. This is done as proximity to power is an excellent way to improve voltage accuracy, efficiency, and the dynamic response of a power rail. These converters are designed for stable output voltage and are ideal for applications requiring compact, reliable, and cost-effective power solutions. These POL converters reduce complexity and improve performance by integrating key power components—controller, inductor, and capacitor—into a single module.
DC-DC Integrated Fixed-POL Converters are optimized for thermal management, ensuring reliable operation under varying loads and temperatures. These converters are suitable for powering microprocessors, FPGAs, ASICs, and other high-performance devices. With high power density and minimal external components, they can meet the demands of industrial, automotive, and consumer electronics applications.
