Full-brick convertors put 500W on
intermediate bus
Two new 500W DC/DC convertors extend the options in powering 12V DC intermediate bus architecture applications.
Two new 500W DC/DC convertors extend the options in powering 12V DC intermediate bus architecture (IBA) applications The two new APC-F501 convertors further expand APC's growing range of high-density DC/DC convertors with low-profile, industry-standard "full-brick" size (117 x 63 x12.7mm) modules of 24V DC (18-36V) and 48V DC (36-75V) input, providing a fully-regulated 12V DC output that is ideal for powering nonisolated point-of-load convertors

Convertors provide a boost to legacy equipment
A new range of cost-effective, flexible and scalable convertors can power new 48V devices from 24V legacy power systems, extending the life of the installed equipment.
Single/triple outputs - same size DC/DC convertors
Combining high reliability, increased flexibility and enhanced performance the APC200 DC/DC convertors' design allows single and triple outputs from the same full brick size (117x61x12.7mm) case
DC/DC convertors in glowing colour
Advanced Power Conversion has published its first full colour catalogue.
Delivering high efficiency of up to 86%, the APC convertor modules enhance the cost and board real-estate benefits of employing a12V architecture whilst also reducing power dissipation and simplifying thermal management.
Flexibility is further improved by true single wire connection for parallel operation between modules.
This provides true N+1 redundancy or a simple route to kilowatts of scalable and compact DC power.
With an outstanding power density of 5.53W/cm3 the APC-F501 also employs fixed frequency operation of 300kHz that can be synchronised to an external clock for noise sensitive circuits and helps with the design of EMC filters.
Both modules feature: 2000V DC input-to-output isolation, low input and output ripple currents, input transient voltage protection, thermal monitoring voltage to provide early warning of system fault, remote sensing, remote shutdown, output current monitor voltage, thermal protection and current limit protection.
