Datel Announces USN Series D5 Converters

Datel Inc. (Mansfield, MA) announced the new USN Series D5 converters. The new devices are 8A and 10A SIP non-isolated dc/dc converters. The devices accept a 4V input and deliver 1.5V, 1.8V, 2.5V or 3.3V outputs at either 8 or 10A. The converters measure 2" x 0.53" x 0.4" and occupy 0.8 square inches of board space.

Datel's USNs use a 200kHz, fully synchronous, buck topology. The company claims that they have up to 91 percent efficiency. The devices feature under-voltage shutdown, output over-current detection and continuous short-circuit protection. In addition, the converters have a wide-range output-voltage trim function, a remote on/off control pin, and an optional sense pin. A power-good function can also be added.

Pricing for the USN Series SIP power converters is $44 each in singles and $27 each for 10,000 pieces. Production quantities require six to eight weeks.
