CUI’s Power Group today announced the addition of a new 3 W isolated Dc-Dc converter series to its portfolio. The PQME3 series housed in a compact, industry standard 14 pin surface mount package measuring 19.20 x 18.10 x 10.16 mm, provides a rugged, low power solution for a variety of industrial, test and measurement, and telecommunication applications.
The 3 W series features 4:1 input ratio ranges of 9 to 36 Vdc and 18 to 75 Vdc, single regulated outputs of 3.3, 5, 9, 12, 15, and 24 Vdc, remote on/off control, and 1500 Vdc input to output isolation. Efficiency is up to 84% and no-load power draw less than 0.1 W. Operating temperatures range from -40 up to +71°C at full load, derating to 60% load at +85°C, making the low power modules suitable for harsh environments.
PQME3 series offers over current and short circuit protections as well as a minimum MTBF of 1,000,000 hours at +25°C ambient, calculated per MIL-HDBK-217F.
