DC-DC power IC converts 48 V to extremely low voltage

The HS200 is a dc-dc power IC that offers greater than 97% efficiency at 2.6 W and greater than 90% efficiency at 15 W.

With no load, the HS200 consumes only 0.5 mW. Power can be pulled from any of its

three outputs simultaneously up to 15 W. Efficiency is nearly flat from full load down to 5% load.

Target applications for the HS200 include Power-over-Ethernet products such as wireless access points, security cameras, IoT gateways, and VoIP phones — as well as 48-V input telecom and data center blades and electric and hybrid vehicles. The HS200 also targets products with 24-V inputs such as HVAC systems and industrial controllers. The device can perform voltage conversions on input voltage ranging from 12 to 48 V with output voltage as low as 1.5 V.
