New DC-DC Converters with Input Voltage Ranges of 9 to 36VDC or 18 to 75VDC

Press Release Summary:

  • Available in compact size of 2” x 1”
  • Operates with case temperature of -40°C to +105°C
  • Applications include industrial control, telecom/datacom, test, measurement and battery-operated equipment

Original Press Release:

4:1 Input 40W and 60W DC-DC Converters have a 2�x1� Footprint and Six-Sided Shielding for Reduced Radiated EMI

TDK Corporation (TSE:6762) announces the introduction of the 40W and 60W rated TDK-Lambda PXD series of 2”x1” DC-DC converters. Capable of operating from a wide input voltage of 9 to 36Vdc or 18 to 75Vdc, these converters have a copper case providing six-sided shielding for reduced EMI, simplifying system compliance. Industrial control, telecom/datacom, test, measurement and battery-operated equipment are some of the many applications for the PXD.

The PXD40 and PXD60 converters comprise of 3.3, 5, 12, 15, 24 and 48Vdc single outputs, and ±12, ±15 and ±24Vdc dual output voltages. Using the trim function, the single output models can be adjusted to compensate for voltage drops or to accommodate non-standard system voltages. The wide input ranges can assist with inventory reduction programs with one part number covering multiple nominal voltages.

All models have a negative logic remote on/off function as standard, which can be used to reduce the input current to a low 3mA to prolong battery life for portable equipment in stand-by mode. No minimum loading is required, and the converters are protected against output-overvoltage, overcurrent and overtemperature conditions.

With efficiencies of up to 93%, power losses are minimized allowing the products to operate with a case temperature of -40°C to +105°C. Output power derating can be reduced with the use of optional heatsinks and/or system airflow.

All models carry the CE and UKCA marks for the Low Voltage and RoHS Directives and are certified to the IEC/UL/CSA/EN 62368-1 safety standards. The series has an input to output and input to case isolation of 1,600Vdc.

More information on the PXD40 and PXD60 series, including distributor inventory, can be obtained from the TDK-Lambda Americas website at https://www.us.lambda.tdk.com.
