DC/DC converters occupy less than 1/3 square inch

The 2:1 inputs voltage ranges of 4.5 to 9V DC or 18 to 36V DC can handle up to 15 and 50V DC respectively for up to 100ms. The converters are insulated up to 3kV DC/1s, and reach efficiencies over 80%.

The first versions to be launched will be 5V output, with additional outputs to be released later, says the company. The modules are regulated at ±2% accuracy, with a tight line regulation of ±0.5% and load regulation of ±0.5%. They are short-circuit protected, and operate under natural convection at temperature ranges of -40 to +85°C (24V version) without derating.

The new modules comply with the RoHS guideline and are certified according to IEC/EN 62368-1 and EN 55022/24. The MTBF is more than 2,000 x 10³ hours at 25°C according to MIL-HDBK 217F. The converters have a three-year guarantee. Samples are available via the company’s distribution channels.
