EN6338QI 3A PowerSoC
Step-Down DC-DC Switching Converter with Integrated Inductor
DESCRIPTION
The EN6338QI is a Power System on a Chip
(PowerSoC) DC-DC converter. It integrates MOSFET
switches, small-signal circuits, compensation, and the
inductor in an advanced 3.75mm x 3.75mm x 1.9mm
19-pin aEASI package.
The EN6338QI is specifically designed to meet the
precise voltage and fast transient requirements of
present and future high-performance, low-power
processor, DSP, FPGA, memory boards and system
level applications in distributed power architecture.
The device’s advanced circuit techniques, ultra high
switching frequency, and proprietary integrated
inductor technology deliver high-quality, ultra
compact, non-isolated DC-DC conversion.
The Intel Enpirion power solution significantly helps
in system design and productivity by offering greatly
simplified board design, layout and manufacturing
requirements. In addition, a reduction in the number
of vendors required for the complete power solution
helps to enable an overall system cost savings.
All Enpirion products are RoHS compliant and lead-
free manufacturing environment compatible.
