Rugged 196W PC/104-Plus DC-DC Power Supply Module

Today Diamond Systems Corporation unveiled the Jupiter-MM-5000 high-efficiency, high-precision family of dc-dc power supply modules. These rugged I/O modules offer up to 196W of +5Vdc and +12Vdc power in either the compact PC/104 form factor or PC/104-Plus form factor. Jupiter-MM-5000 power supplies consist of a PC/104 form factor module with complete dc-dc voltage regulator circuitry, integrated thermal solution, detachable screw terminal block I/O connections, and PC/104 bus connectors.

The wide input voltage range of 7- to 34-Vdc is compatible with industry standard 12V, 24V, and 28V inputs. The Jupiter-MM-5000 uses a state-of-the-art design with the latest generation high efficiency components. It delivers efficiency as high as 95 percent, reducing input power requirements as well as heat generation.

Jupiter-MM-5000 was engineered for rugged applications such as automotive or on-vehicle. Extended temperature operation of -40 to +85 degrees C is tested and guaranteed. Low-profile, surface mount components reduce susceptibility to shock and vibration. I/O connections are made with locking screw terminal blocks for the highest degree of ruggedness. The modules are compatible with MIL-STD-202G shock and vibration specifications.

Specifications and features include: Four models. +5Vdc and +12Vdc outputs in a PC/104-Plus module, +5Vdc output in a PC/104-Plus module, +5Vdc and +12Vdc outputs in a PC/104 module, and +5Vdc output in a PC/104 module; Up to 196W total output power at 25 degrees C including +5Vdc at 20A maximum and +12Vdc at 8A maximum; Optional +3.3Vdc at 5A maximum (minimum order quantities apply); Extreme load stability, 0.35% maximum output voltage droop at 5V output, 0-20A load, Vin = 12V, Ta = 25 degrees C; Extremely low ripple, 12mV peak-to-peak ripple at 5V output, 0-20A load, Vin = 12V, Ta = 25 degrees C; High efficiency: 92-94% at 5V output, 0-20A load, Vin = 12V, Ta = 25 degrees C;

Excellent transient load response, +/-72mV at 5V output, 25-75% load step, 2.5A/usec ramp rate, Vin = 24V, Ta = 25 degrees C; Extreme temperature stability, +/-0.5% at 5V output, 10A load, Vin = 24V, Ta = -40 degrees C to +85 degrees C; Input protection circuit for over/under voltage, reverse polarity, surges, transients and reflected noise; Output current limit and short circuit protection; Wide input voltage range, +7- to +34-Vdc input; Remote on/off control; Heat sink or heat spreader cooling solutions; Dual input option with auto-cutover (minimum order quantities apply).

The Jupiter-MM-5000 dc-dc power supply modules are orderable now and shipping in volume in February, 2016. Single unit pricing starts at US$225 for the +5Vdc PC/104 model.
