2025-10-27 10:27:03 360
EN5339QI Description
A compact PowerSoC synchronous step-down DC-DC converter, the EN5339QI integrates an inductor, synchronous MOSFETs, PWM controller and compensation in a 4 × 6 × 1.1 mm 24-pin QFN package to deliver up to 3 A of regulated output from a 2.4–5.5 V input in an ultra-small solution footprint.
EN5339QI Features
All-in-one PowerSoC — integrates inductor, drivers and control circuitry for the smallest possible POL (point-of-load) solution.
3 A continuous output capability — supports moderate power rails for SoCs, FPGAs and ASIC core supplies.
Wide input range — operates from 2.4 V to 5.5 V, accommodating common system rails.
Adjustable output (0.6–4.6 V typical) — flexible VOUT selection via resistor divider or VID pins for core and I/O rails.
High switching frequency (≈3.5–4 MHz) — enables use of tiny MLCCs and minimizes total solution area.
High efficiency (up to ~95%) — minimizes thermal dissipation in compact designs.
Thermal-friendly, exposed-pad QFN — bottom thermal pad for PCB heat sinking and reliable thermal performance in small form factors.
Protection features built-in — enable/disable (EN), over-current protection (OCP), over-temperature (OTP), short-circuit protection (SCP) and UVLO for robust system behavior.
EN5339QI Applications
Point-of-load (POL) power for FPGAs/ASICs — supply tight-tolerance core voltages where board area is at a premium.
Embedded processors and SoC rails — compact, high-efficiency conversion for CPUs and NPUs in edge devices.
Telecom and networking modules — powering transceivers and line cards requiring low-ripple, high-efficiency rails.
Storage and server mezzanine cards — on-board buck for memory or core rails in dense server add-in modules.
Compact industrial and medical electronics — small-footprint power for rugged designs with limited PCB area.

EN5339QI Alternatives
EN5322QI / EN5329QI (Enpirion family) — similar integrated PowerSoCs in the same product family at 2 A and 2 A variants respectively for lower current needs.
EN5335QI / EN5337QI (Enpirion family) — other 3 A PowerSoC variants in the Enpirion/EN53xx portfolio if specific pin or feature variants are required.
Discrete/regulator modules from other vendors — compact integrated buck modules or power-stage modules from TI, Murata or RECOM for designers preferring alternate footprints or supply-chain options (compare efficiency, footprint, switching frequency and thermal specs when selecting).
Higher-power Enpirion parts (EN5364QI / EN5394QI) — choose these when your design needs larger continuous currents (6 A–9 A).

EN5339QI FAQs
What input and output voltage ranges does the EN5339QI support?
The device accepts 2.4 V to 5.5 V on VIN and can be configured for outputs typically from 0.6 V up to roughly 4.6 V, making it suitable for many core and I/O rails.
Is an external inductor required on the PCB?
No — the EN5339QI is a PowerSoC with an integrated inductor, so only a small set of external capacitors and a few support components are required, greatly reducing BOM and layout complexity.
How much current can the EN5339QI safely deliver continuously?
It is specified to provide up to 3 A continuous output current in normal operating conditions; thermal design (copper area, vias to PCB ground) will determine safe sustained current on your board.
What switching frequency and benefits does it use?
The EN5339QI operates at a high fixed switching frequency (around 3.5–4 MHz) so designers can use small MLCC output capacitors and achieve a very compact total solution area.
Which protections are integrated and how do they behave?
The module includes enable/disable control, over-current protection (OCP), short-circuit protection (SCP), over-temperature shutdown (OTP) and UVLO — these features protect the load and the converter and simplify system fault handling; consult the datasheet for detailed trip thresholds and fault recovery behavior.
