An Aimtec product story

Edited by the Electronicstalk editorial team Nov 5, 2009

Aimtec's latest series of 30W DC/DC converters, AM30EW-Z, offer 15W psi in a 2in x 1in package.

Ultra-wide input ranges of 9-36 and 18-75V DC feature soft start and provide flexibility for applications with loosely regulated inputs or with battery-powered applications where input voltages can vary greatly with the battery charge.

The AM30EW-Z series offers input/output isolation of 1,600V DC to protect the load circuit from any transient voltage surges present at the input of the converter.

Single, dual and triple outputs include 3.3V, 5V, 5.1V, 12V and 15V DC and feature a tight load regulation of +/-0.5 per cent (single output) and continuous short-circuit protection with auto-recovery restart to protect the converter, the load and the converter's input circuit from extremely high currents, as caused by a short circuit.

Other features of the AM30EW-Z series include soft start, which contributes to an MTBF of 3.2 million hours, remote On/Off control and a cold start-up temperature of -40C.

In addition to being RoHS compliant, Aimtec's AM30EW-Z carries the CE mark for emissions and immunity standards IEC 61000-4, EN55022 Class A and EN55024.
