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.
Eighth-brick convertors power up to 100W
Murata Power Solutions has a new series of cost-effective eighth-brick DC/DC convertors.
Typical applications for the high-performance ADCDS-1603 can be found in digital still cameras, digital video camcorders, portable CCD image devices, plus a wide range of medical and industrial imaging products.
The ADCDS-1603 has a class-leading signal-to-noise-ratio of 85dB at 3MHz with no latency delay.
The small, fully integrated 40-pin TDIP package incorporates a user configurable input amplifier, a correlated double sampler (CDS), and a 16bit sampling analogue-to-digital convertor (ADC).
Further features of the user-friendly design include edge triggering, gain adjust, offset adjust, a precision +2.0V reference and a programmable analogue input bandwidth function.
Overall power consumption is just 500mW typical.
Central to the ADCDS-1603's high performance is a unique high-speed, high-accuracy, CDS circuit that eliminates the effects of residual charge, charge injection and noise on the output capacitor of the CCD.
This produces a "valid video" output signal that the ADCDS-1603 digitises using its integral high-speed, low-noise sampling ADC.
Two variants of C and D's new imaging signal processor are available: the ADCDS-1603 is designed for commercial applications and has an operating temperature range of 0 to +70C, and the ADCDS-1603EX has an operating temperature range of -55 to +125C, making it suitable for military and more demanding commercial applications.
