300W buck-boost DC-DC converters from TDKERT

TDK  announces the introduction of the i7C series of 8A 300W rated non-isolated DC-DC converters, packaged with the industry standard 1/16th pinout.

The output voltage of these step-up and step-down converters can be adjusted from 9.6 to 48V and accept a wide range input voltage of 9 to 53V.

The i7C 8A series can be used to derive additional high-power outputs from a 12V, 24V, 36V or 48V DC power supply, at a much lower cost than isolated DC-DC converters.

At zero load, the input current draw is typically just 5mA, which can be reduced to around 0.25mA when the remote on-off is used to put the converter into standby. This extends the time battery powered equipment can remain functional, during periods of non-peak operation.

With efficiencies of up to 97%, these compact products are suited for use in medical, communications, industrial, test and measurement, broadcast and portable battery powered equipment.
