1×1-in railway dc/dc converters tackle demanding environments

March 7, 2019 By Lee Teschler Leave a Comment

The RP12-AR series dc/dc converters are designed for railway rolling stock applications, but they are also suitable for non-railway high-voltage battery applications. Their 5:1 input voltage range of 36-160 Vdc (185 Vdc for 1 sec) allows for all-in-one solutions for 48-V, 72-V, 96-V and 110-Vdc csm_RP12-railway systems. They have a built-in class A filter network and offer single or dual outputs from 3.3 V up to &pmn;24 V.

The high efficiency of up to 90% enables these modules to be operated at a wide ambient temperature range from -40 to +88°C without derating. Neither forced cooling nor additional heatsinks are required when operating them at full load. The RP12-AR series feature UVLO (Undervoltage-Lockout), OVP (Overvoltage protection), SCP (Short-circuit protection), and OLP (Optical line protection), which makes them candidates for many harsh railway and industrial applications such as powering IoT sensors, battery management systems or electric fork-lift trucks. They are CE marked and come with a three-year warranty.
