DC/DC converters are available fully encapsulated
SynQor is launching a new range of quarter brick-sized DC/DC converters for industrial applications operating from a 12V bus (operating range is 9-22V). Single output voltages offered range from 1.8-48V (with nine different models available), and the converters are capable of supplying up to 40A or 100W of usable power.
Housed in the industry-standard 2.30 x 1.45inch quarter brick footprint and pinout, the IQ12xxxQTAxx devices are available as open-frame units for convection-cooled applications, or with baseplates for conduction-cooled applications. And, for the first time, SynQor can supply them fully encapsulated for use in harsh environments.
Utilising SynQor's well proven Synchronous Rectified Topology, efficiencies of up to 91 per cent are achieved in the following configurations: 1.8V/40A; 3.3V/30A; 5V/20A; 7V/14A; 12V/8A; 15V/7A; 24V/4A; 30V/3A and 48V/2A. The modules have at least a basic-grade isolation rating between input and output of 2250V DC (reinforced-grade for the encapsulated version). Calculated MTBF figures are in excess of 2MHrs, and all units are fully 6/6 RoHS-compliant.
Control and protection features include remote sense, a wide output voltage trim range of -20 to +10 per cent, input under-voltage lockout, output OVP, current limit, short-circuit protection, and thermal shutdown. Operating temperature range is -40 to +100degC.
Sample and production quantities are available immediately with a stock to 12-week lead-time. The modules are priced at $103 in OEM quantities.
