TDK has announced the introduction of the RFE2500 series of AC/DC power supplies. Rated at up to 2500W output power, the units are available in three output voltages, 12V, 24V and 48V. Featuring screw terminal and bus-bar connections, this very compact series does not require an additional plug-in rack or backplane making it ideal for space-constrained industrial, communications and test & measurement applications.

TDK has announced the introduction of the TDK-Lambda CUS200M series of AC/DC power supplies. With efficiencies up to 94%, the series can deliver 200W with convection cooling or up to 250W with 1.5m/s airflow. The units, packaged in the industry standard 3x5” footprint, have both medical and ITE certification to the IEC 60601-1 and IEC 60950-1 regulatory standards. 

TDK-Lambda's video showcases extensive range of AC/DC power supplies suitable for a wide variety of applications including industrial, medical, test and measurement and renewable TDK-Lambda's CUS350M range of AC/DC power supplies is approved for use in many medical applications.

Outdoor events now use multiple, large display screens and a host of other electronics, and portable diesel generator sets often provide the AC power in temporary locations. By Andrew Skinner, TDK-Lambda EMEA  

Configurable power supplies from TDK-Lambda are the first 1,200 to 1,500W-rated versions to have full Means of Patient Protection (MoPP) isolation. The QM series of AC/DC power supplies are also claimed to have the lowest acoustic noise at that power level, for use in medical or healthcare environments.

TDK Corporation announces the introduction of the PFE1000FA series of power modules, representing a significant upgrade to the PFE1000F launched eight years ago. The series offers efficiencies as high as 90%, an improvement of up to 4%. Rated between 720W and 1000W, the products are designed for use with a cold-plate where cooling fans are not permitted, including industrial, MIL-COTS and communications applications.

TDK Corporation announces the introduction of the iBH series of 80W, 20A Point of Load (POL) non-isolated DC/DC converters, featuring a wide 0.7V to 5.5V output adjustment range. The iBH converters can operate from either 5V or 12Vdc bus voltages, having a wide input voltage range of 3.5V to 14V, reducing inventory carrying costs by stocking just one part number.

TDK has announced the 12, 24 and 28V output HQA DC/DC converters, with additional output voltage models to be added in the coming months. Packaged in a ruggedised quarter brick form factor, the encapsulated HQA120 models can deliver 120W output power and will operate over a 9 to 40V input range (50V for 1 second). These 89% efficient converters are suitable for use in COTS, communications and industrial equipment.

The introduction of two further models to the TDK-Lambda i6A series of step-down, non-isolated DC-DC converters has been announced by TDK Corporation. The i6A4W is capable of supplying currents of up to 20A, and the i6AN allows the creation of negative voltages delivering currents up to 8A. 

TDK-Lambda has announced the introduction of the iDQ series of 10A, 48VDC nominal EMC filter modules. With high on-board capacitance, the filters are suited for use with DC/DC converters, minimising the need for external components and thus saving PCB space. Rated for a maximum voltage of 75VDC, the iDQ has a differential mode attenuation of 63dB at 300kHz measured with a 50Ω source and load impedance.

Certified to the IEC 60601-1 & 60601-1-11 medical standards, a series of 40-65W Class II external power supplies has been unveiled by TDK-Lambda. The DTM65-C8 series have 4,000VAC isolation from input to output and require no ground wire connection. The series is intended to power a range of hospital, dental and home healthcare products for monitoring, imaging and diagnostic applications.

TDK Corporation announces the introduction of the CUS350M series of AC/DC power supplies. Rated at 350W output power, the units have both medical and ITE certification to the IEC 60601-1 and IEC 60950-1 regulatory standards. Requiring no forced air for cooling, the CUS350M is suited for applications where audible noise cannot be tolerated, including hospital, dental, broadcast and professional audio equipment.

TDK Corporation announces the introduction of the i6A series of 250W DC/DC converters, featuring a wide 3.3V to 24V output adjustment range. The non-isolated i6A series can deliver up to 14A output current and will operate over a 9 to 40V input range. Power density is 427W/in3 packaged in the industry standard 1/16th brick form factor.

Representing a significant upgrade to the PFE1000F launched eight years ago, TDK has announced the PFE1000FA series AC/DC power modules. The series offers efficiencies as high as 90%, an improvement of up to 4%. Rated between 720 and 1,000W, the products are designed for use with a cold-plate where cooling fans are not permitted, including industrial, MIL-COTS and communications applications.

TDK announces the introduction of eight models to TDK-Lambda’s Genesys series of programmable DC power supplies. The series is now available with output voltages of 800, 1000, 1250 and 1500V and with output powers of 10 or 15kW. These high voltage units address the requirements for applications in the OEM, industrial, defence & aerospace, alternative energy and ATE markets including: semiconductor and automotive test, and component test...
