    DC/DC Converter Saves Space in Mobile Equipment

    01/24/2019

    San Jose, Calif. – TRACO Power announces the release of their THN 15N series of 15 Watt DC/DC converters in the standard 1x1 inch package, which utilizes the latest advancements in power technology design to meet EMI Level A standards without external components and reduced no-load power consumption of 96-336mW and efficiencies up to 91 percent.
     
    These compact, high-performance 15 Watt DC/DC converters are ideal for addressing power conversion requirements in mobile equipment, instrumentation, distributed power architectures and industrial electronics applications, particularly when space is limited in PCB designs.
     
    The THN 15N features a wide 2:1 input range of 9-18 / 18-36 / 36-75 Vin with single and dual outputs ranging from 3.3 to 24 VDC. High efficiency operation of 86 to 91 percent enables a fullload operating temperature range of -40°C to +70°C (up to 105°C with derating). These highdensity DC/DC converters provide input to output isolation of 1,600 VDC and feature remote on/off control and a voltage trim function inside a 6-sided shielded metal case with an insulated base plate. All models are safety approved to IEC/EN/UL 62368-1 and are qualified to meet EN 55032 Class A conducted emissions limits and can meet Class B limits with the addition of external components. Reliability is measured at >1.6 million hours per MIL-HDBK-2175 and backed by TRACO Power’s 3-year warranty.
