PT4498--48V 20 Amp "Current Booster" for PT4484 DC/DC Converter SLTS110 (Revised 10/31/2000) * 20A Current Boost (Boosts PT4484 to 40A) * Tracks Vout of PT4484 * Synchronized Operation * High Efficiency * Input Voltage: 36V to 75V * 26-pin Copper Case Package The PT4498 is a new high-performance 20A "Current Booster" for use with the PT4484 ExcaliburTM DC/DC converter. The PT4498 adds a parallel output stage to the PT4484, allowing both to operate in perfect sychronization. The PT4498 only operates with a PT4484 and is not a stand-alone product. Refer the PT4484 data sheet for the performance specifications. The booster uses the same 26-pin case and has the package options as the companion regulator.
