780W PIM suits high-power ATCA applications
Ericsson Power Modules has announced the PIM4710PD, an extension of the popular 3E Power Interface Module (PIM) family and an even higher power version than its recently announced family member – the 600W PIM4610PD. The module offers high current handling of 20A and increased power capability of 780W at the lower end of its input-voltage range with the capability to handle up to 1080W with a 54V input.
Medical power supply features BF rated outputs
A medical, BF rated output, AC/DC power supply has been released by Power Partners from their medical open frame/u-channel product line. The PPWAM360 series is designed to deliver 360W in a high power density 4x6” footprint with 90264VAC input and five single output models (12, 24, 28, 48 and 54VDC).
Power supply range has programmable ouput voltage
The line of efficient, single output, programmable AC/DC power supplies from Power Sources Unlimited has been expanded with the AE Series (800, 1,500 and 3,000W) and AEK Series (3,000W) from Cotek Electronics. Key applications include factory automation, off-site test and measurement and communications equipment.
World’s smallest-class high power density converters
Murata announced the MYMGK series of miniature “Mono Block” type surface mount point-of-load (PoL) DC/DC converters. These non-isolated “Mono Block” type converters are available in two models, a 6 Amp and a 20 Amp. Each version is available with two output voltage range options. Typical applications for these converters include powering FPGAs and CPUs used in data, telecommunications and networking communications equipmen...
Researchers develop efficient dual-ion battery design
Dual-ion batteries (DIBs) are a new type of battery developed in recent years, typically using graphite as both the cathode and anode material. DIBs can operate across a wider voltage window with safer performance, and are cheaper than conventional lithium-ion batteries.
Medically approved power supply carries CE mark
A medically approved 700W ATX PC power supply has been introduced by TRUMPower. The TMPC-700 gives users a head start in meeting 4th edition EMC standards, including the ability to withstand ESD of 8kV contact and 15kV air. The power supply features China Compulsory Certification (CCC) and Korea Certification (KC) agency approvals.
World’s smallest 40W AC/DC open frame power supply announced
The ECF40 series of single output 40W ultra compact AC/DC power supplies has been announced by XP Power. These open frame convection-cooled units are capable of delivering the full output power of 40W without the need for any external forced air flow up to 50°C.
Power supply added to line of test instruments
A new 80W Power Supply has been added to Global Specialities line of educational and industrial test instruments. The 1412 80W triple range DC power supply is a compact and light weight unit that has a multi-range selectability; it’s just like having three power supplies in one.
Board mounted DC/DC converters power industrial & railway applications
Powerbox introduces two board mounted DC/DC converters to power industrial and railway applications; the extra wide input PQB50U-72S and the ultra-high power density PFB600W-110S. With an unprecedented extra wide input of 12:1 (14V to 160V) the PQB50U-72S delivers 50W in quarter brick packaging, bringing simplicity to power designers addressing EN50155 applications (one unit covering all bus voltages).
20V, 500mA LDO with ultralow noise & 76dB PSRR
Linear Technology announces the LT3045, an ultralow noise, ultrahigh power supply ripple rejection (PSRR) low dropout voltage linear regulator, a higher output current version of the widely accepted 200mA LT3042 ultralow noise LDO. The LT3045’s unique design features ultralow spot noise of only 2nV/√Hz at 10kHz and 0.8μVRMS integrated output noise across a wide 10Hz to 100kHz bandwidth. Low and high frequency PS...
