Eighth-brick convertors power through
the heat

Convertors provide 30A output at regulated voltages of 3.3 to 1.2V with little or no derating at elevated temperatures.

FDK Corp has released the first eighth-brick products in its Sensei Series of isolated DC/DC convertors FPER48T convertors provide 30A output at regulated voltages of 3.3 to 1.2V with little or no derating at elevated temperatures

With a 48V DC input and 2m/s airflow, FPER48T convertors deliver full-rated output current at ambient temperatures up to 75 and 85C at output voltages of 3.3 and 1.2V, respectively, with no need for heatsinks.

These convertors are designed for intermediate bus architecture (IBA) and distributed power architecture (DPA) in telecommunications, data processing, computing and storage applications.

The 30A FPER48T convertors of the Sensei Series operate from a 36 to 75V DC input, and are available in standard output voltages of 3.3, 2.5, 1.8, 1.5 and 1.2V.

They are offered in a 58.4 x 22.8mm industry-standard eighth brick footprint and pinout, and have a low body profile of 10.7mm, making them particularly suitable for high-density card-rack applications.

Standard features include input undervoltage lockout (UVLO), output overcurrent protection (OCP), output overvoltage protection (OVP), overtemperature protection (OTP), remote output voltage sense and output voltage trim using industry-standard trim equations.

The FPER48T convertors meet the basic insulation requirements of EN60950 and feature input to output DC isolation of 1500V.

"FDK's leading-edge thermal performance results from electrical, thermal, and packaging design that is optimised for high density circuit card conditions using advanced circuit and thermal design techniques", says Dr Apurba Roy, Executive Advisor, FDK Corp.

"With the addition of the 30A FPER48T convertors to the Sensei Series, FDK can now provide high-performance solutions for isolated output voltages in the range from 12 to 1.2V for IBA and DPA applications".

All Sensei Series products are RoHS compliant.

They are manufactured using FDK's state of the art in-house manufacturing processes and systems in Japan.

In quantities of 1000 pieces, the 30A FPER48T convertors are priced at US $37.00 each.
