Mil-Spec DC/DC convertors live long and prosper
Instead of using optocouplers, XP's full Mil-Spec DC/DC convertors use a patented magnetic feedback solution to deliver long-term reliability.
There are 22 models in the PBM200 series and 21 in the PBM300 family.
Output voltages are from 3.3 to 48V DC in single, dual, triple and quad-output versions.
Designed primarily for medical applications, the PBM200 comes complete with a cover and integral fan and produces 200W, the unit is also available as a 100W convection-cooled U-channel supply.
The equivalent PBM300 ratings are 300 and 150W, respectively.
PBM series power supplies have dual input fusing, meeting requirements for European medical systems without additional external fusing.
The units feature universal AC inputs of 90 to 264V AC, power density of up to 4.76W/in3 and up to 80% efficiency.
All models offer remote on/off and single output versions also have a remote sense function to compensate for up to 0.5V drop between the power supply output terminal and the load.
Overtemperature, overload, overvoltage and short circuit protection are all built in.
The PBM200 and PBM300 are available now.
