N2Power Expands Agreement with Nu Horizons Electronics
Nu Horizons Electronics has expanded its UK and Ireland distribution agreement with N2Power, a Qualstar Company, to become a worldwide distributor for the entire product line of XL-Series AC-DC power supplies. N2Power’s XL125, XL160 and XL250 Series AC-DC power supplies are said by the company to produce more power in less space, freeing up system real estate.
Compact, high efficiency 275W AC-DC converter series from Nu Horizons saves power and space, reduces system cooling requirements
N2Power's XL275 series of I2C-enabled 275W AC-DC converters is now available from Nu Horizons. N2Power's proprietary packaging technology gives this family its high efficiency (up to 90%) and small 3 x 5 footprint. The very low profile yields an industry-leading 12.22 watts per cubic inch power density. These high efficiency power supplies reduce wasted energy and require little forced air cooling, saving power and space in OEM applications such ...
