The LDO10C is a new high density, open
frame, non-isolated converter for space
sensitive applications. This model has a
wide input range of 3-13.8 V and offers a
0.59-5.1 V adjustable output with
10 A capability. Typical efficiency for
this model is 91% (12 Vin, 2.5 Vout, 10 A
load). The 5-pin version of this voltage
device offers the additional features
of enable, and with a default wide
adjustable out voltage range or option of
power good.
