NCS6 DC/DC convertors launched by Murata

These include telecommunications; battery powered systems; process control; and distributed power systems.

The NCS6 series is available with input voltage ranges of 9-36V (12V nominal) and 18-75V (48V nominal) both with under-voltage lock out.

The modules are housed in industry-standard packages that allow them to be used as drop-in replacements in existing designs.

Single output voltages of 3.3, 5, 12 and 15V are available and the NCS6 series achieves a power density of 0.94W/cm3 with efficiency levels from 73 per cent.

A metal case helps the DC/DC convertors achieve high levels of EMI shielding and the encapsulated design gives good thermal performance.

The NCS6 series specifies 1.5kVDC isolation and has typical load line regulation of 0.006 per cent.

Low-noise performance and a design that overcomes the need for electrolytic capacitors help to simplify their inclusion in customer designs.

Overall dimensions of the modules are 32 x 20 x 10mm and operating temperature range is -40C to +85C.

All models in the range are RoHS compliant and use UL 94V-0 rated package materials.
