Vicor has introduced a novel interconnect scheme.
High-frequency ZCS/ZVS switching provides high power density with low noise and high efficiency.
Targeted applications for these products include offline systems with autoranging or PFC front-ends, industrial and process control, distributed power, medical, ATE, communications, defence and aerospace.
E-grade modules and power systems are priced approximately 15% below C-grade versions, allowing more power designers to reap the benefits of designing with high performance, high density DC/DC convertors.
These products are available in four different input ranges (24, 48, 300 and 375V), seven different output voltages (2-48V), and three package sizes (quarter, half and full brick).
Different baseplate and pin options are also available.
Efficiency ranges from 80-90% depending on output voltage, operating temperature range is -10 to +100C and storage temperature range is -20 to +125C.
Pricing for E-grade modules is as low as $0.29/W in quantities of 1000, and they are available in standard leadtimes.
