Product category: DC/DC Convertors
News Release from: SynQor Europe | Subject: PowerQor Tera 1.2V
Edited by the Electronicstalk Editorial Team on 18 April 2002

Convertor provides loads of current down
to 1.2V

SynQor has added a 1.2V output module to its popular PowerQor Tera series of industry standard half-brick sized isolated DC/DC convertors.

SynQor has added a 1.2V output module to its popular PowerQor Tera series of industry standard half-brick sized isolated DC/DC convertors The 1.2V modules extend the convertor's application range to the very low voltage levels that are quickly emerging in today's advanced silicon devices

The PowerQor Tera half-brick line now includes output voltages of 15, 12, 5, 3.3, 2.5, 2.0, 1.8, 1.5 and 1.2V.

All units draw power from a 48V nominal input (range: 35 to 75V) and deliver 60A or 165W of output.

Typical efficiency numbers for the 1.2V module are 88% at half-load (30A) and 84% at full load (60A).

The unit provides a full 60A of output current at up to 70C and 200 litre/min airflow with no power derating.

The low voltage Tera series of DC/DC convertors is aimed at the converging telecomms and datacomms markets that are supplying the hardware needed to support network and Internet infrastructure growth.

High-end optical networking MUXs, backbone switches and terabit routers are just some products that require higher currents at increasingly lower voltages to power today's complex electronic circuitry.

SynQor is meeting these challenges by increasing efficiency and power density while reducing convertor size and eliminating the need for a heatsink.

The PowerQor Tera convertors are ideal for these types of OEM designs using distributed power architectures.

The entire family of Tera convertors offer advanced control, safety and protection features including; on/off control, remote sense, no load operation, output voltage trim, input undervoltage and overvoltage lockout, output current limit, output overvoltage protection limit, temperature limit, as well as safety certifications from UL1950, CSA22.2-234, IEC950, 72/23/EEC, 93/68/EEC and ETSI standard ETS300 132-2.

The full-feature model additionally provides active current sharing for parallel operation, external clock and startup synchronisation capability, and a supply voltage for driving an ORing mosfet.

The 1.2V half-brick Tera is complimented by SynQor's 1.2V output quarter-brick Tera module that provides 40A of output current in an industry standard package.

SynQor will soon add 1.2V and lower modules across their broad product line of half-brick and quarter-brick convertors of various power levels.

The entire family of PowerQor Tera half-brick convertors, including the 1.2V module, is currently shipping in production volumes and is available direct from SynQor and through their network of distributors.

The standard Tera half-brick modules are priced at $138.00 in 1000 unit quantities and the full-featured units are priced at $143.00 in 1000 unit quantities. Request a free brochure from SynQor Europe ...
