Astrodyne Announces 20W Wide Input DC-DC Converters For Telecomm, Board-Level Applications

Designed to meet cost-sensitive power conversion requirements in board-level product applications such as data acquisition, communications, and industrial I/O, Astrodyne announced the FED20W series of modular packaged dc-dc converters that provide output power of 20W. The FED20W series accepts 4:1 wide range inputs from 9 to 75Vdc. Currently 14 models are available that provide single and dual outputs from 3.3 to 15Vdc.

All FED20W series models contain short circuit protection, over voltage protection and On/Off Control function. An internal input filter eliminates the need for the addition of external components and all models are said to be pinout and size compatible with more costly products. In addition, the FED20W series provides 1600V input-to-output isolation and will operate over the ambient temperature range of -40 to +75°C without forced cooling or output power derating. Each unit employs 6 sided shielding and is fully encapsulated with 5-sided nickel coated copper and a FR4 base.

The FED20W series is priced at $48 in OEM quantities with delivery at 6 weeks ARO.
