15W DC/DC converters suit industrial applications

Campbell Collins has announced the availability of a family of 15W DC/DC converters from Power Mate designed for industrial and telecom/datacom applications.

The company said the FKC15W range offers high power density and a flexible range of input and output voltage.

The series has 4:1 input ranges of 9-36V or 18-75V.

With single outputs of 3.3V, 5V, 12V and 15V, and dual outputs of +/-5V, +/-12V and +/-15V, the family offers a range of solutions to meet customer needs.

Available output current is up to 4A (at 3.3V) and efficiencies are as high as 90 per cent.

Operating temperature range is -40C to +100C (with full power available up to +67C ambient).

Housed in a six-sided, nickel-coated copper case measuring 1.25 x 0.8 x 0.4in (31.8 x 20.3 x 10.2mm), the FKC15W comes with a range of protection features including input under-voltage lock-out, output over-voltage protection; output over-current protection and short-circuit protection.

The units are also able to withstand input voltage transients of 50V for 1s (9-36V nominal) and 100V for 1s (18-75V nominal).

Calculate mean-time before failure figures for the devices are 4.1Mhrs according to MIL-HDBK-217F, and they come with a two-year warranty as standard.
