Further, thanks to embedded dynamic and adaptive controls, it is possible to reduce power consumption by adjusting critical parameters to match load conditions, resulting in higher...

By delivering 35W output power, and with its wide input range of 18 to 72V, Ericsson Power Modules’ PKU-E DC/DC converter provides flexibility to customers where their applications require more that the company’s 15W PKR, and less than the 50W delivered by the original PKU.

Ericsson Power Modules’ eighth brick sized PKB-NG DC/DC bus converter provides an output power of 300W at 42A. With high output power and high efficiency, the converter sits alongside the best products on the market and offers users the opportunity to attain higher power levels in a smaller packaging than traditional quarter brick units. Alternatively, it enables users to achieve higher power in a standard eighth-brick format when upgrading b...

In an industry first, Ericsson’s BMR453 series of DC/DC converters uses a digital control platform contained within the modules themselves. By integrating more into the control circuitry, the concept frees up real estate for greatly improving the power density, simultaneously offered unprecedented levels of control.

Compared to existing products available on the market, the output power of Ericsson Power Modules’ eighth-brick PKB-B DC/DC converter is considerably higher. This is an important benefit when customers are looking for higher power in a smaller packaging than traditional quarter-brick, or to achieve higher power from a standard eight-brick when upgrading boards for higher performance. The PKB4204B PI is rated at 12Vat 20A and is available in t...

Ericsson Power Modules’ MicroTCA power module has gone through extensive interoperability testing with other MicroTCA component suppliers and system integrators. The digital control of the DC/DC converter that is embedded within the module is unique to Ericsson and provides cutting edge performance in terms of the level of control available, and efficiency.

Ericsson has won the Clean Design category in the Elektra Awards for 2007 The Clean Design category recognizes companies that achieve clear results in their approach to design methods that offer benefits to the environment.

Ericsson Power Modules has released a surface-mount version of its successful PKU series of DC/DC converters. The PKU-SI uses proprietary Ericsson technology that meets all assembly and environmental requirements while contributing to lower total cost of ownership. Addressing the market for smaller power supplies, particularly for highly integrated systems in a broad range of applications in telecom and datacom equipments, Ericsson Power Modules ...

Ericsson Power Modules’ DC/DC converter platform for RF power amplifier applications utilizes the industry standard full-brick format and footprint, making it an excellent drop-in replacement that offers enhanced performance. The device, aimed at the telecoms market and customers developing base transceiver stations in cellular radio networks where high efficiency and reliability are required, is also ideal for many other applications, such as ...

Ericsson Power Modules has signed a distribution agreement with Mouser Electronics, Inc. Under the agreement, Mouser Electronics will support Ericsson Power Modules’ sales in the US and Canada, serving customers and expanding sales and demand in the catalog and buy-online market segments for Ericsson’s product portfolio. In particular, Ericsson Power Modules sees Mouser’s ‘buy-on-click’ solution as a very important and valuable additio...

Ericsson Power Modules has introduced an evaluative level MicroTCA power module aimed at telecom equipment manufacturers and system integrators. It is likely that MicroTCA will be used in many different types of both applications and Information and Communication Technology equipment, and those nearest to adopting are most likely for edge and access equipment.

As a company very focused on its environmental, social and economic impact on the world, Ericsson claims to constantly strive to improve these aspects of all its products and services, from manufacturing, through the reduction of product deployment energy consumption levels, to end-of-life disposal.
