Flex Power Modules adds telecomms DC/DC converter to BMR492 series
The latest eighth brick DC/DC converter in Flex Power Modules’ BMR492 series is a telecomms input range model. It has a wide 36 to 75V input range for telecomms / PoE applications.
The through-hole BMR492 0311/011 provides a regulated 12V output rated at 504W / 42A adjustable from 8.0 to 13.2V and achieves 96 per cent efficiency at half load. Monitoring and control functions are provided via an optional PMBus interface. The BMR492 0311/011 is supported by the Flex Power Designer tool for easy set-up and characterisation in customer application circuits.
The DC/DC converter has a 2250V isolation rating and features an optional baseplate for effective heat transfer to an attached heatsink. It is halogen-free and is fully protected against short circuits, output over-voltage, over-temperature and input under-voltage. The module is supplied in the industry standard, eighth-brick format, measuring 58.4 x 22.7 x 12.7mm with baseplate fitted.
Olle Hellgren, director product management and marketing of Flex Power Modules said that the DC/DC power converter is suitable for power-dense data centre DC/DC conversion and that this latest addition to the range means it can now be used in traditional telecomms applications where a wider input voltage operation is required.
