New series of power converters for demanding space-saving and cost optimisation applications

17-10-2019 | RS Components | Power

RS Components now offers a series of 1W and 2W DC-DC converters from TRACO Power that are ideal for a wide range of applications, particularly those that are cost critical and have strict space constraints.

The TBA series of isolated DC-DC converters comprise four types of 1W and 2W DC-DC converters, each coming in a SIP package. Specially created to provide a low-cost solution with unregulated outputs, but with no concessions on quality or operational lifetime, the series includes the TBA 1/1E/1HI 1W variants, plus the TBA 2 series of 2W units.

Based around a new design, the converters improve on industry-standard features and provide integrated and continuous short-circuit protection circuitry, an operating temperature range from –40C to +85C with no derating and I/O isolation of either 1500 or 3000V(DC).

Other key specifications include input voltage selections of 5, 12 or 24V(DC), as well as 3.3V for the TBA 1 series; an input tolerance of ±10%; efficiencies up to 84%; and a choice or SIP-4 or SIP-7 packages.
