By incorporating, among other things, a high-performance encapsulant, members of the firm's 2nd generation (2G) dc-to-dc converters are capable of withstanding operating temperatures ranging from -55°C to 100°C. Designed to improve their suitability for use in COTS applications, the military- or M-Grade converters also can withstand storage temperatures of -65°C to 125°C and have undergone environmental stress screening.
The converters are members of 48V, 300V and 375V input families, each having three package sizes-- MaxiMod, MiniMod and MicroMod-- providing eight standard output voltages between 2 and 48 vdc. Maximum output power for the 48V and 300V families is 500W and for the 375V family, 600W. Prices start at $0.84/W in 100-piece quantities.
