25W High Density DC-DCs for Industrial Applications

September 15, 2016 by Jeff Shepard

Artesyn Embedded Technologies announced the new AXA 25W Series of rugged, high density 25-Watt dc-dc converters that provide OEMs with a cost-effective solution for diverse low power applications in areas such as industrial automation, instrumentation, test and measurement, and telecommunications.

Encapsulated in a compact metal 1.0 x 1.0 x 0.4 inch (25.4 x 25.4 x 10.16 mm) industry-standard package with isolated baseplate, the AXA 25W series offers up to 90 percent efficiency and covers an 4:1 input voltage range; nominally 24V or 48V (9- to 36-Vdc and 18- to 75-Vdc) available in single- or dual-output variants. The proven rugged design and encapsulation of this converter family enables operation in harsh environments.

Artesyn’s AXA 25W Series consists of single 3.3V, 5V, 12V and 15V output models together with +12/-12 and +15/-15 Volt dual-output models. These dc-dc modules can operate from minus 40 degrees Celsius up to 85 degrees Celsius.

The converters offer additional features such as overload protection, remote on/off control, input-to-output isolation voltage of 1500 Vdc, and - on single output models - the output voltage can be trimmed by +/- 10 percent of the nominal output. All models are approved to CSA/NTRL/IEC/EN 60950-1 for IT equipment.
