XP Power released the ECE60 series of single-output, encapsulated 60 Watt AC-DC power supplies. Suiting applications that require a slim profile, high power density and low no-load power consumption, they are available in either PCB mount, chassis mounted with screw terminals, or in a DIN-rail mount configuration.
Believed to have the smallest footprint and the highest power density of any 60 Watt power supply in the industry, the PCB mounted model measures 91,4 x 38,1 x 28,0 mm and has a power density in excess of 0,61 W/cm³. The range comprises eight models providing all the popular nominal output voltages from + 3,3 to + 48 V d.c.
A peak load capability allows up to 130% of rated output power to be available for up to 30 seconds in order to accommodate a higher startup current when powering a motor for example. Using this approach allows an engineer to avoid having to specify a more expensive, higher rated power supply just to provide for an occasional peak load requirement. Also, with its no-load power consumption of less than 0,3 W and efficiency up to 89%, the ECE60 series ensures that end products meet the criteria of ‘green’ energy saving initiatives.
The units meet EMC specification EN55022 for class B conducted and radiated emissions without the need for any additional filtering components, and are able to operate in most environments over a wide range of temperature from –25°C to +70°C with no derating until +50°C. They come with a three-year warranty and their Class II construction means no earth or ground connection is required.
