Railway-Certified 20W DC-DC Converter with 4:1 Input

Recom's isolated 20W dc-dc converter, the RP20-FR series, is especially designed for railway applications; it is also a reliable choice for industrial and telecommunication applications. The compact 2"x1" modules feature a wide 4:1 input voltage range (9- to 36-Vdc, 18- to 75-Vdc, or 43 to 160-Vdc) and therefore cover all standard battery-board levels including the ±40% tolerance margin. Besides 3.3V, 5V, 12V and 15V single outputs, dual ±12V and ±15V outputs are also available. The control pin logic can be chosen to be positive or negative.

The converters have an efficiency of up to 89% and feature a wide Tx operating temperature range of -40 to +85 degrees C (-HC versions). Cooling is achieved by natural convection, but if required, the modules are also available with a pre-mounted heatsink.

The modules are EN50155 certified with EN50121-1-3-2, EN61373 and UL/cUL-60950-1 approvals. They come with Recom´s standard 3-year warranty.
