DC/DC Converters Squeeze Into Tight Spaces

Oct. 8, 2008
Described as ultra-miniature, low-cost 1W dc/dc converters, the G100 series offers 36 models, operating with 5V, 12V, 24V, and 48V inputs and delivering outputs of 3.3V, 5V, 9V, 12V, 15V, ±5V, ±9V, ±12V, or ±15V. Standard features

Described as ultra-miniature, low-cost 1W dc/dc converters, the G100 series offers 36 models, operating with 5V, 12V, 24V, and 48V inputs and delivering outputs of 3.3V, 5V, 9V, 12V, 15V, ±5V, ±9V, ±12V, or ±15V. Standard features include efficiencies up to 81%, 1 kVdc of I/O isolation, a MTBF up to 3.9-million hours, and an operating temperature range from -40°C to +85°C with no derating or heat sinking. Cooling is via free-air convection. Target markets include industrial control systems, remote battery-backed equipment, test instrumentation, and board-level, power-distribution subsystems. Regardless of the model, price is $4.20 each/100. For more information, call Steve Forrester at MICROPOWER DIRECT, Stoughton, MA. (781) 344-8226.
