Murata Launches Wide Range DC/DC Converters

Murata Power Solutions has introduced its UEI-series of isolated, wide-range dc-dc converters that are said to deliver industry leading 50-60W of power output from a standard 40.6 x 50.8 x 10.16mm (1.6. x 2 x 0.4") PCB mounted, open frame package; plastic cased versions are available upon request. The regulated UEI series has an operating temperature range of -40 to +85°C and is suitable for a wide range of ’current hungry’ applications including industrial, wireless and mobile communications, transportation, medical and instrumentation. Capable of stable no-load operation without external components, the UEI series uses a synchronous rectifier forward topology for high efficiency operation resulting in minimal heat build-up and the ability to be operated using convection cooling and without the need for fans. Full magnetic and optical isolation of up to 2250Vdc provides basic insulation. The UEI series is fully RoHS compliant and all versions possess UL60950-1, CSA-C22.2 No.60950-1 and IEC/EN60950-1 safety.
