Mini Family 24V Input DC-DC Converter Module

Category: Electronics, Other Semiconductors, Vicor Corporation

The Mini Family 24V Input DC-DC Converter Module datasheet describes a range of high-efficiency, isolated converter modules suited for various applications, including industrial and process control, medical, communications, and defense and aerospace. The converters have a DC input range from 18 to 36V and can continue to operate at 16V with 75% power post-start-up, featuring an input surge capability of 50V for 100ms.

Features & Benefits

The modules offer isolated outputs with voltages ranging from 3.3V to 48V and regulation within ±0.5% from no load to full load conditions. Efficiency peaks at 89%, and programmability is available from 10 to 110% of output power. The power density is high, with up to 80W per cubic inch, and modules maintain a low profile at just 0.43 inches above the board. These devices are designed with Zero-Current Switching (ZCS) or Zero-Voltage Switching (ZVS) for minimal noise, and they can be paralleled with N+M fault tolerance.

Absolute Maximum Ratings

Ratings include a maximum operating temperature range of -55°C to +100°C at full power, various test voltages for safety, and an isolation voltage rating of 3000V from input to output. The storage temperature range extends from -65°C to +125°C. Other specifications outline soldering temperatures, mounting torque, and pin solder requirements, ensuring secure and reliable assembly.

Product Overview

The components utilize cutting-edge power processing, control, and packaging technologies to achieve a balance of performance, flexibility, reliability, and cost-effectiveness. Environmental compliance is satisfied with RoHS compliant options available with F or G pin selections.

Part Numbering

A part numbering example (V24B12T200BLZ) breaks down the product type (Standard or Enhanced), output voltage, product grade (including operating and storage temperatures), and output power capability, which ranges from 100W to 250W, depending on the output voltage. Additionally, pin style and finish options are provided, with various lengths and finishes (e.g., RoHS compliant, gold) and choices for the baseplate design.

Note

The datasheet cautions that product images may not reflect current product markings—this notice emphasizes the importance of checking specifications rather than relying on visuals for product identification.
