Murata Power Solutions announced the introduction of the UWE series of highly efficient 100 - 120 Watt open frame isolated DOSA-compatible eighth-brick DC/DC converters. Using the industry standard through-hole package, measuring 58.42 x 22.86 x 9.91 mm (2.3 x 0.9 x 0.39 inches), the single output units offer the nominal outputs of 3.3, 5 or 12 VDC.
Providing an efficiency of typically 91.5 % means that for most applications no forced airflow is required. Suiting embedded computing applications and instrumentation subsystems, the converters accommodate an ultra-wide 4:1 input voltage range from 18 to 75 VDC around a nominal 48 VDC. Line regulation is kept within ±0.25% VOUT and load regulation is maximum ±0.2% VOUT across the complete range. On-board remote sense inputs compensate for line voltage errors at high output currents. A trim function provides the ability to adjust outputs ±10% of nominal output voltage in order to compensate for line losses.
A remote on/off input, negative or positive, provides the ability to remotely control the converter such as required to schedule load startup. The UWE series can operate from -40 °C to +85 °C. Input to output isolation is 2,250 VDC.
Protection features include input under voltage, output short circuit, over current and over temperature.
An optional baseplate is available for conduction cooled applications
