RECOM has extended its portfolio with a 50W DC/DC converter with reliability and efficiency. Fully automated manufacturing results in a cost efficient solution for PoE and industrial applications. The RPA50S-W is a low cost 50W DC/DC converter in industry standard 1/16th brick format and pinning (33x23mm).

IoT systems typically consist of a large number of sensors, actuators and data nodes which are then linked to make an intelligent, reactive and smart infrastructure. Many of these sensor and radio communication modules need to be working 24/7 and therefore there is a need for efficient, compact, reliable and economic AC/DC supplies. For exactly these reasons, RECOM has developed a low cost 5W AC/DC converter in a tiny 1″ x 1″ package,...

Modern smart homes, as well as IoT systems require a high number of low power nodes, actuators and sensors to process information intelligently. To efficiently power these applications, RECOM has extended its low power RAC-series with new 3W and 4W converters with EN60335 household certification. These new low cost additions to the RAC family represent a value for money proposition, which is unique in the marketplace.

The main challenges of driving SiC MOSFETs include high-frequency and high-voltage switching. Extreme voltage potentials between the control and power side can wear down isolation barriers and lead to failures. To meet these tough requirements, RECOM has recently introduced a new 2W DC/DC converter series specially designed to power the latest generation of SiC MOSFETs. Switching SiC MOSFETs requires turn-on and turn-off voltages atypic...

RECOM has introduced four new LED drivers with 9W, 12W, 18W and 25W outputs. They deliver 1% to 100% leading-edge or trailing-edge TRIAC-controlled dimming at the market’s most affordable prices. These LED drivers are designed for either retrofit or new installations and allow the user to set the lighting atmosphere and mood in homes, spotlighting and furniture installations.

A new fully medically-certified DC/DC converter has been developed by RECOM, which the company claims to be the first in its class to provide 2MOPP with 250VAC working voltage in a SIP7 package. This compact design offers engineers more freedom to develop their PCB layout, knowing that they will comply with the stringent regulations for medical certifications. It is certainly a challenge to design high performance, space-saving medical devic...

Intelligently networked smart homes and smart offices require mesh control systems with many low power nodes, actuators and sensors that are “always on”. To meet these emerging demands, RECOM takes a big leap with complementing its low-power RAC-series with new low-cost converters with EN60335 household certification. These and upcoming RAC-series converters represent a quality-cost proposition, difficult for competition to match.

  A range of DIN-rail power supplies available from Dengrove Electronic Components can deliver up to 50% above rated power, which enables equipment to operate continuously during short-term overloads avoiding disruptive shutdown-reset, and allows designers to satisfy high system-demand peaks using smaller, lower-cost power supplies.

RECOM claims that its new R1SX series have nearly 20% lower profile than the industry standard due to their inverted transformer design. These 1W DC/DC converters are suited for bus isolation and a wide range of industrial automation control equipment. The R1SX series, an open-frame SMD converter, leverages on the fully automated manufacturing techniques to deliver stable performance and consistent high-quality at a competitive price.

Designed for high power-density in applications which operate with limited airflow, RECOM has released the RECOM RAC150-G series of switched-mode power supplies. Under natural convection, the SMPS modules provide 125W from a compact 4x2" open-frame design and even up to 122W in an aluminium case; under forced air cooling, a constant output of up to 150W is achieved.

RECOM has expanded its R-78B series with a new 2A on-board power supply. These switching regulators can reach efficiencies up to 96%, without heat sinks. The R-78Bxx-2.0 series provides a high power density of up to 17.5W per cm³ in a SIP3 housing measuring only 11.5 x 8.5 x 17.5 mm. The R-78Bxx-2.0 series switching regulators are ideally suited to replace 78xx linear regulators and are also pin compatible with linear regulators in TO-2...

  The new edition of the RECOM DC/DC Book of Knowledge has been released, with an additional chapter on magnetics. In the first few weeks, more than 1,000 online copies have been downloaded by engineers worldwide. This shows how valuable this source of in-depth practical power design information is to the power supply community.

RECOM's new DC/DC converters REC3A, REC5A and REC6A have a built-in EMI filter to meet EN55022, class A. Class B can be achieved easily with a small capacitor. The compact DIP24 modules (31.8x20.3x10.2mm) with 2:1 input (4.5-9VDC; 18-36VDC) provide a regulated 5VDC output and can be operated zero percent minimum load. They are short-circuit and overload protected and are available with an optional integrated under voltage lockout.

Specially designed for single-cell powered IoT application, RECOM announce boost R-78S switching regulators. Due to their wide input voltage range, high efficiency and low stand-by losses, they extend not only the working lifetime of the cell, but also maintain a stable 3.3V output down to 'the last gasp' battery voltage.

The trend throughout the electronics industry towards ever higher packing densities has left its mark on DC/DC converters, as Recom introduces models with 20 to 120W output

The new 2W RTC2 series modules from Recom come in a six-pin, SMD, open-frame package with a footprint of less than 1/3 of a square inch.

  The RECOM R420-1.8/PL switching regulators has been developed specifically for supplying microprocessors from 4-20mA loop. Characteristics of the flat module include extremely low idle power along with high efficiency.

  RECOM new regulated 6 W DC/DC converter, RS6 series is developed specifically for applications with high-power density in extremely compact installation space; the series supply 2.7W per cm³, and will operate at full load even at extreme temperature range from -40°C to +75°C.

A DIN-rail power supply series rated at 120 and 240W has been added to RECOM's existing range. The power supplies support brief peaks of 50% above rating, and the modules can be connected in parallel to increase the output power available or for redundancy. The two versions operate at input voltages ranging from 85-264VAC for worldwide usage, and are equipped with an active PFC circuit for a power factor greater than 0.95.
