February 14, 2014 - MicroPower Direct introduces MB5000RU DC/DC Converters that deliver 50W of isolated, tightly regulated output power in a compact 1 x 2 x 0.4 inch case. They are designed for applications requiring very wide inputs, compact size, high power, robust performance and long term reliability. Ten standard models operate from wide 24 VDC (9V to 36V) or 48 VDC (18V to 75V) 4:1 inputs, providing tightly regulated single outputs of 3.3, 5, 12, 15 or 24 VDC.
Standard features include line/load regulation less than 0.5%, input/output isolation of 1,500 VDC, a remote control input and efficiency as high as 92%. All models are protected for output short circuit faults, over temperature conditions, and output over current faults. The MTBF (per MIL HDBK 217F) is greater than 328 khours.
The MB5000RU family is packaged in a compact 1 x 2 x 0.43 inch case. The pin-out is industry standard. Operation is specified for the ambient temperature range of -40°C to +61°C (adding the heat sink option extends the temperature range to +69°C). The MB5000RU series is an ideal solution for a wide variety of board level power applications requiring high power density, robust performance and low component cost.
All MicroPower Direct products are designed to provide long, reliable field life. Considerable attention is given to the proper selection, derating, and layout of all circuit components. In addition, extensive reliability screening is also performed on all modules as a routine part of our production process.
