Speedy access to medical supplies
A new range of modular AC/DC power supplies for medical applications has almost limitless configuration options and offers typical shipping times of around a week for first customer-configured units.
Convertors satisfy current-hungry applications
Isolated wide-input-range DC/DC convertors deliver 50-60W of power from a standard 40.6 x 50.8 x 10.16mm PCB-mounting open-frame package.
In addition, the flexibility offered by Quikflex allows engineers to accommodate specification changes that may occur during the development cycle without the need for resourcing or requalification.
Providing power ratings options of up to 1000W, the C and D Technologies Quikflex series enables users to configure between one and 12 independent, isolated outputs with standard output voltages of 1.45 to 28V.
Seven adjustable-output modules provide current rating options of 3, 10, 12, 15, 20, 30 and 80A.

DC/DC databook includes quick selection guides
Guides help design engineers quickly identify the most suitable DC/DC convertor for their given application.
In addition to rapid production turnaround, time to market is further reduced by the fact that each delivered unit conforms to EN61000-3-2 for power factor correction and comes with full CE and UL approval.
The Quikflex range of configurable AC/DC power supplies is based around a two-transistor forward convertor front end with planar magnetic main transformer technology and modular magnetic amplifier output stages.
All units feature a universal voltage input and have input/output dielectric strength of 3kV AC.
Products in the Quikflex family require no minimum load and provide line and load regulation of +/-0.1% and 0.2%, respectively.
Ripple and noise performance is specified as the greater of 1.0% or 100mV peak-to-peak.
Protection for overcurrent, overvoltage and overtemperature conditions is standard, while remote sense functionality is also a standard feature on single-output modules.
Configured Quikflex power supplies use industry-standard, compact four- or six-slot extruded aluminium packages.
Power connections are via screw terminal connections.
Primary and secondary controls enable power channels to be individually voltage adjusted or enabled.
In addition, these controls allow engineers to connect Quikflex modules in parallel or series to provide almost limitless power, current and voltage configurations.
Four-slot Quikflex AC/DC power supplies have dimensions of 270 x 127 x 65mm.
Six-slot versions measure 270 x 187 x 65mm.
Operating temperature for all units is -20 to +70C. Request a free brochure from Murata Power Solutions ...
