Front end power supply

6 February 2013 Power Electronics / Power Management

TDK announced the extension of its TDK-Lambda HFE1600 range of 1,6 kW high-density, front end power supplies with the addition of a 32 V model.

Particularly well-suited for use in broadcast applications, the HFE1600-32 operates from a universal 85 to 265 V a.c. input, and efficiency of up to 92% minimises heat dissipation and power consumption, thus meeting Climate Savers Computing efficiency standards. The unit is equally well suited for use in applications including communications, laser and process control.

As with other models in the range, the HFE1600-32 AC-DC power supply can be used individually or up to five units can be mounted into a dedicated 1U rack delivering 8 kW. To form a hot swap N+1 redundant power system, up to 10 units can be configured in parallel with single-wire current sharing.

TDK-Lambda has also integrated a keying system to prevent mis-insertion of modules into adjacent racks of differing voltage. Output voltage is programmable by resistance, external voltage or optional PM-Bus compatible I²C communication interface.

The HFE1600 hot swap front end power supplies comply with EN55022 and FCC Class A radiated and Class B conducted emissions and meet IEC61000-4 immunity. All models are safety approved to EN/IEC/UL 60950-1 edition 2 with CE mark and are backed by a three-year warranty.
