August 01, 2002 by Jeff Shepard

Gresham Power (Salisbury) introduced its new CPCI-AC-3U-200 high-efficiency, 200W Compact PCI power supply with worldwide ac input and active power-factor correction. The CPCI-AC-3U-200 features better than 81 percent efficiency at 230Vac input, space-saving dimensions of 3U x 8HP x 169.60mm, hot-swap connection, output current sharing for N+1 redundant operation and requires no minimum load to function correctly. Backplane connection is via the standard Positronic 47-pin PICMG 2.11 connector.

Standard output-voltage configuration is 5Vdc at 20A, 3.3Vdc at 30A, +12Vdc at 3A and –12Vdc at 0.5A. The input voltage is universal from 85Vac to 264Vac over the frequency range of 47Hz to 63Hz, and a 48Vdc input version is also available. Full output power is available over a temperature range of –10 to +55 degrees C with 15 CFM of cooling.

Additional standard features include, unlimited duration overload and short-circuit protection; over-voltage and over-temperature protection; load sensing on 5Vdc and 3.3Vdc outputs; enable, inhibit and power-good signals; front-panel LEDs to indicate output and input power status; and an I2C data bus for remote monitoring and control. The power supply is approved to UL, CSA and TUV; is CE marked; and the conducted EMC meets EN5022 Class B and FCC-68 Part-15 safety agency standards.
