CUI Introduces 10-30 W Chassis Mount DC-DC Converters

October 10, 2011 by Jeff Shepard

CUI Inc. announced the release of a new line of 4:1 input dc-dc converters ranging from 10~30W that are housed in a compact chassis mount package. Featuring screw terminal connections, the VYB10W-T, VYB15W-T, VYB20W-T and VYC30W-T Series are designed for applications where the convenience of chassis mounting is required, including transportation equipment, mobile equipment, and telecom base stations. With a temperature range of -40 to + 85°C, the converters are well suited for most operating environments.

Available in +3.3, +5, +12, or +15Vdc single output models and 12 or ±15Vdc dual output models, the converters accept input voltages of 9-36 or 18-75Vdc. The wide input range is very useful when being driven from a fluctuating device such as a battery which can see both charging and discharging conditions. All outputs are fully regulated to within ±0.5% over all line input conditions and ±1.0% for all load conditions. Additionally, input to output isolation of 1,500Vdc is provided across the range. Dimensions for the VYB10W-T, VYB15W-T, and VYB20W-T Series are 55 x 35 x 19 mm while the VYC30-T Series measures 67.5 x 55 x 19.1mm.

Single output 15, 20 and 30W models offer an output trim that allows adjustment within ±10% of nominal output, while all models include remote on/off. Additional features include short circuit protection for the entire series, and over current and over voltage protections for 15, 20 and 30W models. An optional accessory kit is also available for DIN rail mounting.

The VYB10W-T, VYB15W-T, VYB20W-T and VYC30W-T Series are available through Digi-Key starting at $29.49 for 100 pieces for 10 W models. Contact CUI directly for OEM pricing.
