Power
Ruggedized, Flexible High Power AC/DC PSUs
Powerstax plc has released the
MC1U series. Offered in 400 W
(MC1U-6A), 700 W (MC1U-6B)
and 1,000 W (MC1U-6C) versions, supporting a 47 Hz to 440
Hz input frequency range, these
power supply units (PSUs) provide
design engineers with a plug and
play solution that can be adapted
to meet exact functional specifications. Measuring 26 by 12.7 by 4
cm, these user-configured PSUs exhibit power conversion efficiencies of up to 91 percent. The available input voltage range is 85
VAC to 264 VAC at 47 Hz to 63 Hz and 90 VAC to 120 VAC at 390
Hz to 440 Hz.
UL60950, CSA22.2 No.950 and EN60950 approved, as well as
fully conforming to both MIL-STD-461F (for electromagnetic interference) and MIL-STD-810G (for shock and vibration) standards,
the products in the MC1U series are targeted at implementation
into military commercial-off-the-shelf (MIL-COTS) and other high
reliability systems.
Over-current, over-voltage and inrush current protection
mechanisms are incorporated into these units, as well as thermal
shutdown. They also have a 3,000 VAC voltage isolation and an
operational temperature range spanning from -55ºC to 70ºC.
A conformal coating on their exterior offers added protection
against dust and liquid ingress.
New Slim Power Adapter from Power Partners
Power Partners have released the
PEAD70SLF series of single output
AC/DC desktop switching power
supplies, which provide up to 70 W
from an input voltage range of 90
to 264 VAC (47 to 63Hz). The series
has standard output voltages of 15,
18, 19 and 24 VDC that require no
minimum load for operation.
This desktop adapter has a
3.66 by 2.28 by 0.66 inch footprint with C8 AC input receptacle.
The PEAD70SLF series features 3,000 VAC input-output isolation, protection circuitry including over-voltage and short-circuit
protection, and an average efficiency rating of 87 percent. These
efficient power supplies have an MTBF of greater than 100,000
hours at full load. All models are RoHS compliant and meet Efficiency Level V, EN55022 and FCC Class B emissions limits, and are
approved to UL, CSA and European UL/EN60950 safety standards.
Power Partners' PEAD70SLF units operate between 0°C and
40°C. These external desktop supplies are well suited for wide
variety of ITE applications, such as test and measurement, communications, and peripherals where small size is preferred.
Multi Format 180 Watt 93 Percent Efficient
Power Supply from XP Power
XP Power has made additions to its GCS series of single output
high efficiency "green" AC-DC power supplies with both ITE and
medical safety approvals. The GCS180 range extends the power
output capability up to 180 watts. All models in the range have a
no load input power of less than 0.5 W and a typical efficiency of
93 percent.
The GCS180 series is available in multiple mechanical formats
giving the designer several mounting configurations to choose
26
from to suit the end application. Convection cooled formats, providing up
to 150 watt output, are in an industry
standard 3 by 5 inch open frame package, an optional enclosed cover option
is also available. The full 180 W output
is available when a forced air flow of
seven CFM is provided by the user or by
using the optional top or end mounted
fan formats.
Across the range, five single output models are available covering the popular nominal outputs of +12, +15, +24, +28 or +48
VDC. An additional 12 V / 0.6 A fan output is standard. Designers
also have the choice of using an input earth connection or not due
to the Class I and Class II input construction used. A remote on/off
feature is available across the range by specifying the "R" option.
ProTek Devices' TVS Array Provides Circuit
Protection in Computing Applications
ProTek Devices has introduced
a low capacitance transient voltage
suppressor (TVS) array designed to
protect computing applications from
the damaging effects of electrostatic discharge (ESD) and electrical
fast transients (EFT). Such computing applications include Ethernet
10/100/1000 base T, FireWire, wireless communications devices and USB interfaces.
The TVS array is the PLR3311, which meets IEC 61000-4-2 (ESD),
IEC 61000-4-4 (EFT) and IEC 61000-4-5 (surge) standards requirements. At higher operating frequencies or faster edge rates,
insertion loss and signal integrity are a major circuit protection
concern. The PLR3311 is designed to remove these concerns. This
device offers low capacitance (5 pF [typical]) and low leakage
current. It features 40 watts peak pulse power per line (tp = 8/20
micro amps) and a low clamping voltage. The PLR3311 protects
one bidirectional line. The component is provided with a rated 3.3
stand-off voltage. It is RoHS and REACH compliant.
The PLR3311 is provided in a molded JEDEC DFN-2-0402
package. It has an approximate weight of just two milligrams.
The package features lead-free pure-tin plating (annealed) and a
solder reflow temperature (pure-tin - Sn, 100) of 260°C to 270°C.
It has a flammability rating of UL 94V-0. The operating and storage
temperature for the PLR3311 is -55°C to 150°C.
Eaton 5SC UPS Provides Power Protection for
Servers, Storage and Network Equipment
Eaton has released the Eaton 5SC
uninterruptible power system (UPS) in
North America, delivering power protection for small business servers, storage and network equipment. The 5SC
rounds out the Eaton 5 series product
portfolio and complements the 5S, 5P
and 5PX UPSs.
As an information technology solution, the 5SC features a LCD interface
that provides a clear status of key UPS
parameters, such as input and output
voltage, load and battery level and estimated runtime. It is designed to protect tower servers, network-attached storage (NAS)
