The existing features of the standard R-78 series (high efficiency, small case size & pin-compatibility with 78-series linear regulators) have been improved by adding a much higher input voltage range of up to 42VDC and double the output power in the same size case. The R-78C series offers 15W/cm³ of power.

RECOM Power, a pioneer in the design and manufacture of DC/DC and AC/DC converters, switching regulators, and LED drivers today announced its worldwide distribution alliance with Mouser Electronics, Inc., regarded as a top design engineering resource and global distributor for semiconductors and electronic components.

RECOM announces that the recently introduced REC8, REC10 and REC15 DC/DC converters are now UL-60950-1 safety certified to complement the EN60950-1 certification that they already possessed. This means that they are now approved for applications world-wide.

Especially the new PowerlinePLUS-Converters. They provide 20 to 50 watts and have been designed for applications with a temperature range of -55°C and 100°C.­ Converters with theses specifications are focussed to railway applications, aerospace, traffic controls, wind energy and semi military environments. They are however also ideal for industrial applications, in which heat generation has to be reduced.

The inaugural webcasts include simple instructions on how to assemble high power LED lighting, showing that SSL lights can now be easily and quickly constructed using solder-free plug and play parts including the LED’s, connectors, optics and RECOM’s LED drivers.

RECOM has added a new series of 60 Watt open frame AC input LED drivers to its range of “LightLine” constant current LED drivers. The new products are approx. half the size of their competitors. The RACD60-Series offers a wide range of output currents and is available in five different versions to meet the current needs of any lighting system from 700mA up to 4.2Amps. The output current can be adjusted with an internal potentiometer to match ...

After the success of its DC LED driver modules, RECOM has developed a new series of constant current LED drivers with universal AC inputs, power factor correction and UL certification. The first two products in the all inclusive RACD series are a 12W and a 20W solution to meet the needs of the high brightness LED lighting market. With universal AC input and constant current output of 350mA or 700mA, the RECOM AC input LED driver modules are suita...

The new miniature SMD-Converters RSx/R2x from RECOM offer 2 Watts power rating, are RoHS6/6 compliant and therefore absolutely lead-free. They can operate at ambient temperatures up to +100°C with convection cooling and without derating, are EN60601 and UL60950 certified and pin compatible with industry standard converters.

RECOM, the company that first developed and brought to market the popular R-78 product family, has designed a DC/DC-converter in a DIP24 case that breaks the 10kV barrier. These new converters, the REC 3.5- and REC 6- families, offer 10kVDC resp.5 kVAC isolation.

Only months after the launch of the new 4-Watt Class, RECOM introduced the RAC20-SB, a highly efficient solution in the medium power range of up to 20-Watts. This ultra-compact converter measures only 52.4 x 27.2 x 23.5 mm (LxWxH), and is supplied in the same housing as the popular 10-Watt model and is also pin-compatible with the equally popular 5 Watt model.

RECOM's new RAC04-Family is for applications with mounting space restriction and low weight requirement. An efficiency close to 80% guarantees high reliability – accord. To MIL-Standards the MTBF reaches 350.000 hours, or 40 years continuous operation.

The PowerlinePlus Series are the first modules to incorporate RECOM's innovative ICE Technology - Innovation in Converter Excellence- a combination of techniques to minimize internal heat dissipation and maximize the heat transfer to ambient to create a new converter series which offers high end performance at a price which is significantly lower than conventional specialist converters.
