Aimtec Announces New 30W DC-DC Converter

Aimtec announced its newest series of 30W dc-dc converters, AM30EW-Z, pack 15 watts psi in a compact 2 x1" package, saving what is said to be up to 35% PCB space compared to other 30W converters in a 2 x 1.6" package.

Ultra wide (4:1) input ranges of 9~36 and 18~75Vdc feature soft start and provide the flexibility that is required 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 1600Vdc to protect the load circuit from any transient voltage surges present at the input of the converter.

Single, dual and triple outputs include 3.3, 5, 5.1, 12 and 15Vdc feature a tight load regulation of ±0.5% (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 value added features of AM30EW-Z series include soft start, which contributes to an MTBF of 3.2million hours; remote ON/OFF control and a cold start up temperature of -40°C, allowing these robust modules to answer the needs of a broad range of industrial control and outdoor applications.

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. Priced starting at $40.34/100+ pcs, samples are available from stock.
