LM60430-Q1: Application Inquiry

Part Number: LM60430-Q1

Hello team,

Due to a stock problem, my customer is considering LM60430-Q1 for their project. Their project uses the Raspberry Pi zero (1GHz) as their edge compute. They will use the LM60430-Q1 as a 24 to 5 V DC-DC converter. They will generate PWM signals at 400 Hz, kHz and kHz. They also do some sensing and data capture using the Raspberry Pi Zero W, then push that data to the cloud. Your thoughts on using this chip. What are the pros and cons?

Regards,

Renan

  • Renan,

    This device should work providing the output current is not greater than 3A.

    The 400kHz switching frequency may interfere with noise-sensitive nodes but it is unlikely to interfere with the signal integrity of a 400kHz digital PWM signal. I don't know the exact specs for a raspberry pi Zero's high/low limits for digital signals but the signal would need a lot of interference to be corrupted.
