Regulated 10W DC-DC Converters with 4:1 Inputs

August 07, 2016 by Jeff Shepard

RECOM's new RP10-A and RP10-AW series include a range of dc-dc converters for applications where wide input range and accurate regulation are key factors. Typical applications include battery-powered systems, instrumentation, or distributed power architectures in telecommunication or industrial electronics.

The 1”x1” modules with industry-standard footprint offer a wide 4:1 (RP10-AW: 9- to 36-Vdc and 18- to 75-Vdc) or 2:1 (RP10-A: 9- to 18-Vdc, 18- to 36-Vdc and 36- to 75-Vdc) input voltage range and are available with single (3.3-, 5-, 12-, 15-, 24-Vdc) or dual outputs (±5-, ±12-, ±15-Vdc). They can be used over an operating temperature range of -40 up to +100 degrees C (derating starts at 78 degrees C depending on the model and cooling method) and offer an efficiency of 91%.

The converters can be ordered with optional positive or negative control logic. Additional features include under-voltage lockout, short-circuit, over-current and over-temperature protection. The outputs can be trimmed by ±10% to perfectly fit the needs of the load.

The modules have a built-in EMI filter to meet EN55022, class A. Class B can be achieved easily with a small capacitor (<10µF). The series are UL60950-1 certified. They come with RECOM’s standard 3 year warranty. Samples are available from all of RECOM´s global distributors.
