Mastering the nuances of modern ac-dc power supply selection ...

A rugged, ultra-wide input AC/DC converter now delivers up to 54VDC—ideal for PoE+, medical, and industrial applications without increasing size or complexity.

How to calculate the efficiency of a power converter A power converter’s efficiency (AC-DC, DC-DC, or Buck) is determined by comparing its input power to its output power. More precisely, the ...

Adoption of electric vehicles is fuelling an industry in power conversion for a comprehensive charging infrastructure, writes Jon Cooper of Avnet Abacus. Electric vehicles (EVs) are here to stay, with ...

The new Artesyn CSU2000ADC-3 joins the company’s market-leading CSU series of AC-DC power conversion solutions and broadens AE’s product portfolio to meet data center power supply needs for ...

Permanent magnet DC (PMDC) motors offer smaller solution size and increased efficiency in applications such as portable vacuums and cordless electric power tools. When designing an isolated power ...

The 150-W supply integrates active power factor correction (PFC) to convert a universal ac-input voltage (95 to 264 V ac) to 24 V dc. Typical line/load regulation exceeds ±2% from 5% to full load.

The device can work over a wide input voltage range of 80 to 240 V. Tested power-line frequency range was 50 Hz and 60 Hz; dedicated control pulse train was developed for each power-line frequency.

Capable of operating from a 350-528Vac three phase delta or wye input, the TPS3000-48 avoids the need for the step-down transformer a 208/230V input PSU would require, said the firm. Efficiency is up ...

A low-power (60-W) ac-dc universal input power supply has a compact footprint (51 x 102 mm or 4 x 2 x 0.97 in.) and meets EN60601-1 and EN60950. It also meets all UL, CSA, and EN standards. Three ...
