DC/DC Converters Derive 5V From 3.3V

Offered in an industry-standard, single-in-line package (SIP), the V7PC-04C series non-isolated, dc/dc converters operate with a 3V to 4V input range and output 5V and a maximum current of 5A. The V7PC-04C500 with remote on/off and V7PC-04C50N both provide full-load efficiencies over 90% and operate to 70°C with no derating. Other features include an output power up to 20W, fixed-frequency operation, and overvoltage and short-circuit protection. Designed specifically for designs where space limitations are a major consideration, the converters measure just 2.5" x 0.55" x 0.36". Prime applications for these compact components include portable and desktop computers, peripherals, telecommunications, networking, test instruments, and automation equipment. Pricing for the series is $11.50 each/10,000. For more information, contact BEL FUSE INC., Jersey City, NJ. (800) 235-3873.
