DC-DC converters with wide input range

9 November 2016 Power Electronics / Power Management

Gaia Converter released a new family of ultra wide input voltage range DC-DC converters targeting railway, transportation and high end industrial applications. The MGDDI-06’s 12 – 160 V input voltage range is ideal to cover all typical battery/bus voltages at once (24 V, 36 V, 48 V, 72 V, 96 V, 110 V, 125 V) with the same device.

With two isolated outputs (for parallel, serial or symmetrical operation) of 5 V, 12 V, 15 V and 24 V, the devices can cover a wide variety of needs such as single 5 to 48 V output, ±1 5V or 2 x 24 V outputs (3 W each) for example. Packaged in a low-profile (0,84 cm) housing with a footprint of 2,54 x 1,91 cm, they have a wide temperature range of -40°C to +100°C and are potted to fit rugged transportation environmental conditions.

The units are full featured and protected with zero to full load regulation, trim and on/off capability, adjustable UVLO, soft start, embedded EMI filter as well as over-current and over-temperature protection. Complying with EN50155/55022 or equivalent standard becomes straightforward thanks to such a wide input voltage range and the use of a fixed switching frequency with embedded LC filter. Designed for rugged applications, the MGDDI-06 series does not use optocouplers in the feedback loop.
