Isolated converter

Isolated converter#

The PDS_IC module features an isolated DC/DC converter, providing a secure and stable power supply for sensitive electronic systems, such as computers and subsystems. The DC/DC converter modules are available in power ratings ranging from 60 W to 300 W, allowing them to support a wide variety of power requirements. Key characteristics include:

  • isolated power line with a configurable output voltage,

  • isolated voltage and current measurements on the isolated bus,

  • temperature monitoring for reliable operation,

  • reverse polarity, over-voltage and over-current protection for safety,

  • integrated EMC filter to reduce electromagnetic interference,

  • transient protection to guard against sudden voltage spikes.

Important

Higher power IC like 150W and 300W are expected to generate increased heat; therefore, adequate cooling is recommended.
