Frequently asked questions

What is the rated load current for each channel?

The rated load current is 8A for each channel, though derating is necessary for certain VIN, VOUT, and thermal conditions.

Can the switching frequency be synchronized?

Yes, by applying a clock signal to the CLKIN pin, the module's switching frequency may be synchronized from 0.75MHz to 2.25MHz.

What is the default phase difference between channels?

Channel 2 is set up to synchronize to the CLKOUT signal of channel 1 with a default phase difference of 180°.
