1W and 2W DC-DCs target Medical Applications

XP Power today announced the IMM series of 1- and 2-Watt dc-dc converters. The IMM01 1-Watt and the IMM02 2-Watt converters are designed for use in medical applications. Providing a 1500Vac input/output isolation at a 250Vac working voltage to facilitate a 1 x MOPP the single and dual output units are approved to the international medical safety standards ANSI/AMII ES60601-1, CSA 22.2 No 60601-1 and EN/IEC60601-1.

The IMM01 and IMM02 are available with a choice of two 2:1 input voltage ranges based around a nominal 5Vdc (4.5- to 9.0-Vdc) and 12Vdc (9.0- to 18.0-Vdc) inputs. Single output models provide the popular nominal outputs of +3.3, +5, +12 or +15 Vdc. Duals provide the combinations of +/- 3.3, +/- 5, +/- 12 or +/- 15 Vdc.

Packaged in industry standard SIP-7 or SIP-8 formats the units occupy very little PCB. The IMM01 uses a SIP7 footprint and measures 0.76 x 0.42 x 0.36 inches. The SIP8 2-Watt IMM02 is 0.86 x 0.42 x 0.36 inches. Capable of operating in most environments over the extended operating temperature range of -20 to +100 degrees C, the convection cooled units can deliver full power up to +60 degrees C.

A remote On/Off input pin allows external control of the converter operation from a host application such as to sequence startup. The IMM01 single output series is priced at $10.15 for 500 pcs orders and is available from Allied Electronics, Digi-Key, Newark or direct from XP Power and come with a 3-year warranty.
