Targeting a diverse range of applications including industrial process control systems and industrial computing, the IQ24-EGA series is available either as an open frame device, or as a fully encased device with an attached baseplate for cold-plate or heat-sink mounting in harsh environments. Sized at just 58.4 x 22.9 x 10.41mm in open frame format, the devices offer an extremely high power density, at efficiency levels of up to 90%.
The high efficiency and optimum layout of the patented synchronous rectifier based topology employed in the IQ24-EGA, leads to maximum output current availability with minimal derating. In many cases, the Eighth-Brick IQ24-EGA will be able to replace traditional Quarter-Brick packages from competitors used in existing designs, offering great advantages to the board designer. Fixed switching frequency operation offers predictable EMI performance, and MTBF figures in the region of 2.5Mhrs reflect the high reliability of the devices.
The IQ24-EGA series is capable of withstanding transients on the input to 50V for 100ms, and has a basic isolation level from input to output of 2000Vdc. Control and protection features include remote sense, a wide output voltage trim range of –10% to +10%, input under-voltage lockout, output OVP, current limit, short circuit protection, active back bias limiting and thermal shutdown. Operating temperature range is -40 to +100degC.
