Cost-effective 1W Insulated DC-DC converters for space-constrained designs

Murata's cost-effective new NXE1 series 1W Insulated DC-DC converters are now available from Farnell element14. The units have a profile 30% lower than the 7mm height industry norm, making them ideal for designs where space constraint is an issue. The NXE1 has the additional advantage over competing SMD DC-DC converters of being manufactured using automated processes that greatly improve overall product reliability and deliver consistent performance characteristics. An embedded transformer also contributes to the NXE1's space-saving features. With an industry standard pin-compatible footprint, the series is seen as ideal for compact applications and can replace products in existing designs. The series can be used across the full industrial temperature range from -40C to +85C. The units offer ANSI/AAMI ES60601-1 recognition, with UL60950 and UL60101 standards and patents pending.
