Converter modules offer very high density, efficiency

Vicor (Andover, MA) announced a new platform of isolated, regulated DC/DC converter modules based on the company’s Converter housed in Package (ChiP) power component platform. Delivering up to 2X the power density of conventional DC/DC converters, according to the company, the new ChiP DCMs enable power engineers to conserve valuable board space. They accommodate applications requiring high power density and thermal management flexibility. The platform spans DC/DC conversion requirements from 12 V to 420 V input and 12 V to 55 V output.  Coupled with FPA and ZVS regulators, these components enable dense, efficient and scalable source-to-load power system solutions. ChiP DCMs provide:

• Up to 1244 W/in3 power density.
• 93 percent efficiency.
• Parallel array capability of up to eight units.
