Vicor have announced the addition of eight wide input Micro DC-DC converters to its 28 Vdc input family. These models have nominal output voltages ranging from 3.3 to 48 Vdc and a maximum power of 100 W (50 W at 3.3 and 5 Vout and 100 W at 12, 15, 24, 28, 36, and 48 Vout). These modules are ideal for either 12 or 24 V applications such as MIL COTS or commercial battery systems in vehicles. They can also be used in a variety of vehicle or man portable applications including lighting, communications, portable test equipment, display, and control systems. With efficiencies ranging up to 81 percent, these converters operate from 28 V nominal input, with an input range of 9 to 36 V. These models are available in four environmental grades (with operating temperatures as low as –55ºC) with six pin options and three baseplate options. These modules, which are available in RoHS‐compliant models, are a compact 2.28 x 1.45 x 0.5 in. (57,9 x 36,8 x 12,7 mm) in size and have a wide trim range of 10 to 110 percent of nominal output voltage.
