FDK Introduces 10 and 25A Senpai POL Converters in Small Industry-Standard Footprints
FDK Corp. announced the addition of two new high performance dc-dc converters to its Senpai Series of non-isolated point-of-load (POL) converters. The FPMR12TR7510 converter operates from a 6.0 – 14.0Vdc input bus, and delivers up to 10A in the smallest industry-standard footprint, which the company says provides up to 67% higher output current than other available POL converters in the same input voltage range.
The power density of up to 780W/cubic inch sets a new standard for power delivery in this footprint and pin-out. The FPLR05SR7525 converter operates from a 3.0 – 5.5Vdc input bus, and delivers up to 25A in the next smallest industry-standard footprint, providing up to 25% higher output current than other available POL converters in the same size and input voltage range.
The FPMR12TR7510 converter is offered in a 0.9x0.4x0.195 inch (22.9x10.2x4.95mm) industry-standard SIP package and provides a tightly-regulated programmable output voltage in the range of 0.75V – 5.5Vdc. The FPLR05SR7525 converter comes in a 1.30x0.53x0.327 inch (33.0x13.4x8.3mm) SMD package with industry-standard footprint and pin-out and provides a tightly-regulated programmable output voltage in the range of 0.75 – 3.63Vdc. Both models feature remote ON/OFF, over-current and over-temperature protection, and output voltage adjust, and are compatible with standard trim equations.
These Senpai Series dc/dc converters are designed for Intermediate Bus Architecture (IBA) and Distributed Power Architecture (DPA) applications that require high efficiency, tight regulation, and high reliability in elevated temperature environments. The FPMR12TR7510 and FPLR05SR7525 converters deliver full-rated output current with no derating in ambient temperatures of up to 60 and 70°C, respectively, with 400LFM (2m/s) airflow. This leading-edge thermal performance results from electrical, thermal, and packaging design that is optimized for high density circuit card conditions.
"FDK continues to push the edge of the envelope for point-of-load power delivery," said Dr. Apurba Roy, Executive Advisor, FDK Corp.. "These latest additions to the Senpai Series reflect FDK’s ongoing commitment to providing high performance, high quality, and cost effective IBA power products."
All Senpai Series products are RoHS compliant. They are manufactured using FDK’s state-of-the-art in-house manufacturing processes and systems. In quantities of 1,000 pieces, the FPMR12TR7510 and FPLR05SR7525 converters are priced at $9.50 and $18.00, respectively. Samples are available now.
