Small DC/DC convertor suits tight
applications
The open-frame EST series has a footprint of less than 774mm2, making it suitable for use in a range of networking, telecom, wireless and industrial designs requiring tight board spacing.
Ideal Power has released the EST series of isolated DC/DC convertors from Small Technology Research Group The sixteenth brick (32 X 22mm) DC/DC convertors are capable of delivering up to 50W of output power at higher voltages, or up to 20A of output current at an output of 1.8V DC

Convertors support migration to lower voltages
Ideal Power has released a new power version of its ESB Series (ESB-PV) of DC/DC convertors, which deliver high current and efficiency in an industry-standard sized standard package.
The low-cost devices are designed to operate efficiently over a 4:1 input range of 18 to 75V DC, facilitating their employment on boards with industry standard bus voltages of 24, 48 or 60V.
Their wide input range permits the use of single power system designs which are capable of operating in a range of environments.
The series is RoHS-compliant and can withstand a basic isolation voltage from input to output of 2250V DC.
The open-frame construction of the EST series, combined with its input voltage range and footprint of less than 774mm2, makes it suitable for use in a range of networking, telecom, wireless and industrial designs requiring tight board spacing.
The most common employment is on PC boards in mobile/optical switches, high-capacity network routers, high-end datacom and medical systems, as well as in a variety of systems using a distributed power architecture.
EST convertors boast fixed frequency synchronous rectification control for high efficiency, together with positive/negative remote sense, remote on/off logic and +/-10% output trim.
Protection features include input and output over-voltage protection, over-temperature protection, short circuit protection and under voltage lockout.
They are provided with either active-high or active-low on/off polarity.
The modules operate over an ambient temperature range of -40 to 85C.
