DC/DC Converters for ADSL Application



OTTAWA, Oct. 18 -- Saft Power Systems announces the extension of its DC Converter Family by introducing a range of new DC/DC Converters for ADSL subscriber line-card application. Saft Power Systems has extensive experience in DC/DC converters for telecom application. Saft Power Systems has provided power solutions for over 10 years supporting the evolution to broadband access, with more than 80 million DSL subscribers across the world.

This new range of isolated DC/DC converters provides 5 outputs from a nominal -48V input (-36V to -75V), and delivers up to 100W over a wide operating temperature range of -40 degrees C to +85 degrees C, without power derating.

The initial version provides 5 outputs to meet the needs of many typical DSL line-card applications:

- 3.3V, 5.7A
- 3.3V, 1A
- 2.5V, 4.6A
- 1.25V, 11.5A
- 20V, 2.5A adjustable

All outputs have very low ripple and noise (30mV to 100mV), to meet ADSL specifications. Due to the large number of subscriber line-cards in typical access equipment, the power losses on each card are very critical. For this reason our converter is designed to achieve better than 85% efficiency, even under worst-case conditions. This product is also designed to simplify modification, allowing different output voltages and/or currents to be provided to meet custom requirements.
