6W DC/DC converters offer highest power ratings

XP Power has announced the ITX series of 6W DC/DC converters. Available in an industry standard SIP 8-pin packages measuring just 21.85 x 11.1 x 9.2mm, the devices are believed to have one of the highest power ratings available in an SIP format.

Delivering a power density of up to 46W per cubic inch, they also offer 85% efficiency and meet the design requirements for modern energy efficient and space constrained applications. No forced air flow or additional heatsinking is required. The single and dual regulated output ITX series comprises four 2:1 input voltage ranges of 4.5 to 9VDC, 9 to 18VDC, 18 to 36VDC and 36 to 75VDC. Single output models provide 3.3, 5, 12, 15 or 24VDC and duals +/-5, +/-12 or +/-15VDC. Standard input/output isolation is rated at 1.5kVDC, although a 3kVDC isolation option is available to order by quoting model suffix –H. Another option (-R) provides a remote on/off input for external control of the converter such as for sequencing start up or automatic on/off switching. The ITX series can be used in most environments and has an extended operating temperature range from -40 to 90°C. Full output power can be delivered up to 65°C without derating.
