28V Output Converter Reduces Power Dissipation by up to 40%

A 28V output, 12.8A half brick dc/dc converter specifically targeting Power Amplifier designs, but equally suitable for other applications such as powering fan trays, has been announced by Synqor.

Synqor DC-DC convertor
dc/dc converter is 94.5% efficient

 

Available as a single-board package in Open Frame (HEA13) and Base Plate (HEB13) versions, the PQ60280 converter uses synchronous rectification and SynQor's patented topology to achieve low power dissipation, high reliability, and up to 3% improved efficiency over similarly rated devices, reducing dissipated power by up to 40%. With an input voltage range of 35 to 75V, and operating at an exceptional full load efficiency of 94.5%, the open frame device can supply up to 270W at 55°C ambient with just 200LFM (1m/s) of forced air-cooling. For more thermally demanding applications, the base-plated option allows cold wall mounting or attachment of a heatsink to increase the available power to the full 360W rating.

The converter’s trim range of -50% to +10% adds further flexibility, allowing the user to adjust to the desired output voltage for improved linearity within Power Amplifiers, and the device has a basic isolation level from input to output of 2250Vdc. Other control and protection features include remote sense, input UVLO, output OVP, current limit, short circuit, and thermal shutdown.
