Packaged in a ruggedised quarter brick form factor, the encapsulated HQA120 models can deliver 120W output power and will operate over a 9V to 40V input range (50V for 1 second).  These 89% efficient converters are suitable for use in COTS, communications and industrial equipment.<\/p>\n<p>The HQA120 has been qualified using methods consistent with MIL-STD-883 &amp; 202, and offers a two screening and operating temperature options.  The M-Grade has functional testing in cold, hot and room ambient temperatures, and an extended 96 hour burn-in with ten-cycle temperature testing.  The S-Grade has functional testing at room ambient temperature and a standard burn-in period.  The full load operating temperature for the M-Grade is -55 to +115\u00b0C and -40 to +115\u00b0C for the S-Grade.<\/p>\n<p>Two baseplate mounting versions are available.  The flanged format measures 60.6mm x 55.9 mm x 12.7 mm, with the non-flanged following the standard quarter brick format and measuring 60.6mm x 39 mm x 12.7 mm.  Negative logic remote on\/off and remote sense is provided.<\/p>\n<p>All models are fully regulated, have a constant switching frequency for easier system EMC integration and utilise no opto-couplers in the control loop for increased reliability.   Full auto-recovery protection is provided and the output can be adjusted \u00b110% or turned on or off remotely.<\/p>\n<p>Safety certification includes IEC\/EN 60950-1, UL\/CSA 60950-1 with CE marking for the Low Voltage and RoHS2 Directives.  Input to output and input to baseplate isolation is 2250Vdc.<\/p>\n<p>For more information about the TDK-Lambda HQA series of DC-DC converters, please call TDK-Lambda directly on +44 (0)1271 856600 or visit the TDK-Lambda website at: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.emea.lambda.tdk.com\/uk\/hqa\" target=\"_blank\">www.emea.lambda.tdk.com\/uk\/hqa120\/12-28<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>TDK Corporation announces the introduction of the 12V, 24V and 28V output HQA DC-DC converters, with additional output voltage models to be added in the coming months.
