The DCP360 series is ideal for major appliances, smart metering, and 24 V industrial bus conversion

The DCP360 step-down converters provide reliable power conditioning for industrial applications with a wide input range of 3.3 V to 36 V.

Offering exceptional performance and integration, the DCP360 series enables simple, low-BOM designs with high conversion efficiency.

Parts are available in LCM (Low Current Mode) for high efficiency at light loads, LNM (Low Noise Mode) for noise-sensitive applications, and with dithering enabled. The DCP360 series is built on a peak current mode control with a soft-start, overcurrent protection, overtemperature protection, and output overvoltage protection.

How to select the right DC-DC converters?

When choosing the right DC-DC converter for your application, you must consider the following factors:

  1. Input voltage range: Ensure that the converter can handle the input voltage range of your application.
  2. Output voltage and current: Select a converter that meets your output voltage and current requirements.
  3. Efficiency: Higher efficiency reduces power loss and heat generation.
  4. Quiescent current: Low quiescent current is essential for battery-powered applications.
  5. Package size: Consider the dimensions and form factor of the converter for your design.
  6. Protection features: Look for features like overvoltage protection and thermal shutdown for added reliability.
