Tyco Electronics Power Systems has expanded its NP Series of 48V power systems with the NP control and distribution module (CDM) indoor battery reserve system.
The ATS020 and ATS030 support an input voltage range of 6-14V DC, with programmable output voltage ranges of 0.8-3.63 and 0.8-2.75V DC, respectively.
The ATH version supports an input voltage range of 4.5-5.5V DC, with a 0.8-3.63V DC output voltage range.
The ATM version supports input 2.7 to 5.5V DC input with 0.8 to 2.0V DC output range.
The Austin MegaLynx convertor can reach efficiencies of greater than 92.5% at nominal input voltage conditions and rated output current.
In addition, standard features include programmable output voltages, remote on/off, remote sense, monotonic start up, EZ-Sequence, overcurrent and overtemperature protection.
Current share (-P) and base plate (-H) with additional ground pins for improved thermal performance are available as options.
"The Austin MegaLynx convertor fulfils the need for high onboard current with low output ripple, as required by the latest ICs", says Sabi Varma, Vice President, Marketing and Development Engineering at Tyco Electronics Power Systems Business.
"Austin MegaLynx offers higher current capabilities than our SuperLynx II in the existing package".
The Austin MegaLynx convertor is offered in SMT packaging and RoHS compliant versions are available.
It measures 33.0 x 9.1 x 13.5mm.
This robust construction enables the convertor to operate over a temperature range of -40 to +85C, and allows the use of industry standard handling, cleaning and soldering processes.
Price of the Austin MegaLynx convertor starts at $18.00 each in quantities of 1000 units.
