Medical-grade power supplies offer convection cooling
A series of medical-grade AC/DC power supplies offer full performance at elevated ambient temperature levels, for example in enclosures where forced cooling is not possible because of hygiene, safety, contamination or acoustic noise. RECOM’s RACM series contains 40, 65 and 100W modules which offer continuous output power with free air convection cooling.
Half brick converters with efficient baseplate-cooled power
A development effort for industrial class DC/DC half brick converter modules has been announced by Murata Power Solutions. The ICH series of industrial grade, isolated DC/DC converters provide efficient, baseplate-cooled power from 360-500W from an industry-standard half-brick package measuring 61.0x64.0x13.2mm.
DC/DC high voltage modules
For use with its range of avalanche photodiodes, LASER COMPONENTS is a supplier of DC/DC high voltage modules capable of providing up to 380V from a 5V input voltage. Three versions are available; the dBC-120-3x, providing output voltages in the range 1 -120V, the dBC-220-3x for 1-220V and, for larger APDs requiring higher voltages up to 380V, the dBC-380-5x. All three modules feature a compact housing (21 x 21 x 8.3mm), ideal for small-footprint...
Intelligent charge controller supports various power levels
A highly integrated single chip power bank solution has been introduced by ON Semiconductor for the development of next-gen Li-Ion powered products. The LC709501F total Li-Ion battery solution offers broad power and voltage/current output range of 5, 9 and 12V operation, with a maximum charge/discharge capability of up to 30W through simple FET selection.
Range of AC/DC power supplies backed by extended warranty
Effective 1st October 2016, the warranties on TDK Corporation's TDK-Lambda RWS-B series general purpose AC/DC power supplies have been extended from five to seven years. At the same time, warranties on its LS series general purpose AC/DC power supplies have been extended from three to five years.
Buck-boost regulators deliver up to 150W at 97% efficiency
Vicor has announced the addition of two buck-boost regulators to its Cool-Power ZVS Regulator portfolio. Delivering up to 150W at greater than 97% efficiency, these Cool-Power Regulators incorporate Vicor’s proprietary high frequency zero-voltage switching (ZVS) technology and feature best-in-class conversion efficiency, power density, and performance.
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...
