V.I Chip, Inc. introduces complete powertrain solution for high voltage DC distribution in data centers

The VIB0002TFJ uses a MHz-switching ZVS, ZCS sine amplitude converter (SAC)TM with a high power density of 1,150 W/in3 and over 95% efficiency, providing over 4000 V of safety isolated 330 W power for downstream loads.

In parallel ‘eco-array’ configurations, 380 V to 48 V conversion is achieved at over 90% efficiency from 10% light load all the way to full-load at multi-kW power levels. The new BCM provides a vital link in the progression to 380 V DC data centres, enabling a safe and elegant conversion to the industry-standard 48 V DC rail.

From there, it is an easy and efficient step to high current, sub-1 V loads using established factorised power architecture components. The small size and high power density allows a flexible architectural choice for the system designer to locate the power conversion stage per rack, per shelf or even per individual processor blade.

The BCM V.I Chip package is compatible with standard pick-and-place and surface-mount assembly processes.
