Farnell is addressing the need to deliver more power for e-mobility applications with Traco Power’s range of DC/DC converters.
Farnell’s product segment leader for Traco Power, Steve Hallgate, said, “Compact, reliable and, above all, robust DC/DC converters are essential to meet the ever-increasing demands of e-mobility applications. Very often, such converters must endure extreme and fluctuating temperatures in harsh environments for years without issue. Those attributes of endurance and reliability are what set these Traco Power converters apart.”
Stated advantages include: extreme reliability, even in harsh environmental conditions; optimised heat dissipation and fan-free operation; >90 per cent efficiency; and widetemperature range from-40 to 85°C.
One example is the TMR 12WI series offering 4.73W/cm3 power density in a SIP-8 metal package occupying only 2.0cm2 board space. Operating temperature range is -40 to 65°C without derating under natural convection conditions. The compact dimensions suit these converters to space-critical applications.
