Power supplies deliver high power density
TDK-Lambda has announced the EFE Series of embedded front-end power supplies designed to deliver high power density, high efficiency and enhanced reliability.
Power supplies minimise waste heat
The GEN60-40, GEN150-16 and GEN600-4 models achieve 88% efficiency at 200V AC, while the GEN8-300's efficiency is rated at 84%.
"The PAF series of DC/DC convertors uses Lambda's innovative combination of ASIC control with zero voltage switching (ZVS) technology, giving three times the power density over more traditional convertors.
The addition of the PAF60048 to the PAF family, increases the choice of power outputs to now include both 500W and 600W units, providing a wider more cost effective match to customer needs", said Edward Wright, Lambda's business development manager.
The PAF60048 series comprises two convertors: a 12V output unit with a maximum output current of 50A, and a 28V output convertor with a maximum output current of 21.5A.
Both units have a nominal input of 48V DC with a voltage range of 36 to 76V DC, and provide over current protection from 105 to 140% together with over voltage protection from 115 to 135%.
The convertors can be connected in series or parallel, allowing a wide choice of multiple unit configurations.
The full-function capability of the modules offers a wide choice of features including remote on/off, IOG signal and remote sense.
The units are ideal for applications such as large computers with distributed power architecture and telecomms basestations.
With baseplate operating temperatures from -40 to +100C and resistance to humidity, the modules are suitable for tough operating environments.
Among the global safety standards the series complies with are UL1950, CSA950 and EN60950. Request a free brochure from TDK-Lambda UK ...
