The Distributed-power Open Standards Alliance (DOSA) announced its standard sixteenth-brick, dc-dc converter footprint that has been developed by the DOSA founding members Tyco Electronics Power Systems Inc. (Dallas, TX) and SynQor, as well as DATEL (currently a non-member) and several other power companies and market-leading customers.

New product announcements will follow the standards announcement, including Tyco's KW Series of dc-dc converters, which will provide output voltages from 5.0 V to 1.0 Vdc, up to 25 A output current, and 36 Vdc to 75 Vdc input-voltage range. SynQor will announce its SML family of sixteenth-brick dc-dc converters, and DATEL will also announce its ULS family of sixteenth-brick dc-dc converters.
