PHIHONG'S PSA150U ADAPTER DELIVERS HIGH POWER WITH INCREASED RELIABILITY, STABILITY



PSA150U adapter provides robust construction - survives knocks, drops.

Fremont, CA (March 1, 2002) - Giving designers of OEM electronic equipment a robust adapter for applications requiring more than 100W of power, Phihong provides its PSAI 50U power adapter. The PSAI 50U power adapter delivers up to 150W of power with increased reliability, stability and overall lifetime of the power supply. PSA150U adapter's universal AC input range eliminates switching needs, and the device carries worldwide EMC compliance.

The PSA150U power adapter's 85% efficiency is the highest on the market, and features a high power density at 150W output. The PSA150U adapter is designed for use in industrial controls, imaging machines, gaming machines, networking systems, portable electronic and telecommunication equipment that require zero down time 24/7. The PSA15OU adapter is CE compliant, thus reducing system approval cost while meeting conducted and radiated EMI standards. The adapter's robust construction readily survives dips and browns-outs, surges, spikes and lightning strikes.

PSA15OU adapters deliver higher efficiency for applications while offering excellent thermal characteristics. Designed and built to Phihong's engineering and quality standards, the PSA150U adapter has active protection to prevent damage to product or user loads under short circuit, overload and over voltage conditions without damage.

"The PSA150U power supply's high efficiency allows it to minimize heat dissipation, resulting in an adapter that is small and reliable," said Keith Hopwood, vice president of marketing for Phihong USA. "Without this high efficiency, the resulting internal temperature rise would be potentially hazardous and a major reliability limiter. In many applications, the adapter may be placed in a confined space, or it may be buried under a pile of cable, so minimizing heat is essential." The unit meets FCC Class B and EN55022 Class B conducted noise limits. Safety approvals pending at this time include UL 60950 3rd edition. Like virtually all Phihong adapters, the PSA150U is approved for UL, cUL and TUV. The product mates with any IEC C 13 line cord. The PSA150U adapter measures 82.34 cubic inches. Pricing is $65.50 each per 100 units with lead times of 16 weeks. Samples are available immediately.

For applications that do not require 150W of power, Phihong's PSA100U power adapter also offers 85% efficiency and features a high power density at 1OOW output.

Phihong is the leading adapter brand in the world for the OEM, networking, personal electronic and office automation markets. With global sales for 2001 exceeding $250 million, Phihong has engineering and manufacturing facilities in North and South America, Taiwan and Mainland China.
