Convertors deliver full-rated output power and current, with little or no derating, at high ambient temperatures without the need for heatsinks.
Convertors provide output voltage tracking
FPMS12T and FPLS12T convertors incorporate an output voltage tracking function that enables various sequenced power-up and power-down scenarios when using multiple convertors.
At the leading edge for POL convertors in these standard sizes and input voltage range, the FPMR05T convertors deliver up to 10A of output current, and the FPLR05T convertors deliver up to 30A.
Little or no derating is needed up to 85C.
The FPMR05T convertors are available in 6, 8 and 10A output current models, in industry-standard 22.9 x 10.2 x 4.95mm SIL packages.
The FPLR05T convertors are offered in 10, 16, 20, 25 and 30A output current models, in industry-standard 50.8 x 13.6 x 8.0mm SIL packages.
All models feature remote on/off, overcurrent and overtemperature protection, and output voltage adjust, and are compatible with standard trim equations.
These Senpai Series DC/DC convertors are designed for intermediate bus architecture (IBA) and distributed power architecture (DPA) applications that require high efficiency, tight regulation and high reliability in elevated temperature environments.
At an output voltage of 3.3V, the FPMR05T convertors deliver up to 10A of output current with no derating in ambient temperatures of up to 85C under natural convection, and the FPLR05T convertors deliver up to 30A with no derating in ambient temperatures up to 70C with 2m/s airflow.
This excellent thermal performance results from electrical, thermal, and packaging design that is optimised for high density circuit card conditions.
"With the addition of the FPMR05T and the FPLR05T convertors to the Senpai Series, FDK can now offer a complete lineup of high performance POLs in industry-standard SIP and SMD packages, covering the range up to 30A for 12, 5 and 3.3V distribution rails", said Dr Apurba Roy, Executive Advisor, FDK Corporation.
All Senpai Series products are RoHS compliant.
They are manufactured using FDK's state of the art in-house manufacturing processes and systems in Japan.
