Input converters designed for battery-driven applications

CUI Inc. announces a new member of its V-Infinity product family -- a series of high efficiency, 4:1 input dc-dc converters that provide output power ranging from 10 to 20 W. Packaged in an industry standard 2 x 1 in. footprint, the VYB Series is suitable for battery-driven applications where charging and discharging conditions require an especially wide input range. With a temperature range of -40° to 85° C, the converters are suited for most operating environments.

Available in 3.3, 5, 12, or 15 Vdc single output models and ±5, ±12, or ±15 Vdc dual output models, the VYB Series accepts input voltages of 9 to 36 Vdc or 18 to 75 Vdc. Outputs are fully regulated to within ±0.5% over all line input conditions and ±1.0% for all load conditions. Input-to-output isolation of 1,500 Vdc is provided across the range.

Single output 15 and 20 W models offer an output trim that allows adjustment within ±10% of nominal output, while all models include remote on/off. Additional features include short circuit protection for the entire series, and overcurrent and overvoltage protection for 15 and 20 W models.
