- Replacing an isolated 1/16th or 1/32nd footprint DC-DC converter with the i6A and i3A non-isolated converters
Some Distributed Power Architectures (DPAs) utilise 1/16th and 1/32nd “brick” package isolated DC DC converters to step down a 24V or 48V DC source to produce 3.3V,…
- What advantages do i6A 250W non-isolated DC-DC converters offer over isolated modules?
The non-isolated i6A DC-DC converters offer power levels of up to 250W. Traditional isolated converters require a transformer and associated circuitry. As the i6A modules use a…
- What headroom do i6A 250W non-isolated DC-DC converters require?
As the i6A series utilises a step-down topology to maximise efficiency, it needs to have the input voltage higher than the output voltage – this is often…
- Can I create a multiple output power supply using i6A 250W non-isolated DC-DC converters?
David Buck, Market Development Manager at TDK-Lambda EMEA explains how an unlimited number of individually regulated adjustable outputs can be generated from a standard 12, 24, 36…
- How to use the i6A evaluation boards
There are four different evaluation boards available for the i6A series DC-DC converters – these are either populated with a positive output 14 or 20A module, or…
- Can I replace an isolated 1/16th brick DC-DC converter with an i6A non-isolated converter?
The i6A non-isolated DC-DC converter has the same 1/16th brick footprint as the isolated device in the same format, and is therefore a drop-in replacement. This video…
- How to generate high power using the low cost, high efficiency i6A series DC-DC converter
The i6A series of step-down, non-isolated DC-DC converters provides a low cost, high efficiency method for generating high power output. From an input voltage of between 9…
- Why the convection cooled CUS150M AC-DC power supply likes it hot
The new CUS150M series of 150W convection-cooled medical (IEC60601-1) and industrial (IEC60950-1) power supplies operates in temperatures up to 80°C without the need for forced air cooling.…
- How the XMS500 configurable power supply differentiates itself from the rest
Introducing the new 500W, single output XMS500 AC-DC configurable power supply, which is available in either class I or class II configurations. Both versions achieve class B…
- Why is the GENESYS+™ so quiet?
The GENESYS+™ has significantly lower levels of audible noise when compared to the first generation Genesys™ series. This is due to the utilisation of an ambient temperature…
