XP Power delivers wide input 6W and 8W
DC-DC Converters in an ultra-compact DIP-16
package
XP Power today announced two new series of fully
isolated DC-DC converters in an ultra-compact DIP-
16 package, offering a very high power density of up
to 50W/in3. With two ultra-wide input voltage ranges,
they are ideal for any application that requires through-
hole mount DC-DC converters compliant with global
Information Technology Equipment (ITE) safety
approvals IEC60950-1 and UL/cUL60950-1.
Using the latest design techniques, the JWE06 (6W
total output power) and JWE08 (8W total output power)
DC-DC converters offer 1500 VDC isolation with single
or dual output voltages. Both ranges offer devices with
either 3.3, 5, 12, 15 or 24VDC single, and ±12V or
±15VDC dual outputs. Each series is able to operate
from two ultra-wide input voltage ranges; 9V to 36V
and 18V to 75V, with up to 87% efficiency. All models
feature undervoltage lockout.
All devices in both series meet EN55032 Level A EMI
standards, meaning no additional external filtering is
required. This can save both PCB space and BoM cost.
They also feature an extended operating temperature
range of -40℃ to +105℃, with no derating or forced air
cooling required up to +70℃. The JWE06 and JWE08
series have zero minimum load requirements and
achieve a typical line regulation of ±0.2% and load
regulation of ±0.5%. For dual output models, cross
regulation is a maximum of ±5.0% for load variation on
one output of between 25% and 100% while the other
output is fixed at 100%.
The industry-standard DIP-16 metal cased package
measures just 23.8mm by 13.7mm by 8.0mm. This
level of integration offers developers the opportunity to
reduce overall PCB area or add additional features into
existing product profiles.
These class-leading features coupled with their small
outline, excellent isolation and industry standard
safety compliance make the JWE06 and JWE08 DC-
DC converters ideal for a wide range of applications
including Automation & Process Control, Broadcast,
Fixed and Mobile Telecommunications, Networking &
Data-communications, as well as Instrumentation and
Specialist Equipment.
The series are available from Digi-Key, element14,
Farnell, RS Components, approved regional
distributors, or direct from XP Power and come with a
3-year warranty.
Littelfuse Introduces Surface Mount PPTC
Devices to Prevent Charging Cables from
Overheating
Littelfuse, Inc., the global leader in circuit protection,
today introduced the PolySwitch® LoRho Series SMD
PPTC that provides protection for charging cables and
connectors from heat generated due to faults within the
cable connector or port. As connector sizes get smaller,
so does pin-to-pin spacing, which increases the chance
that dirt, dust, water and other debris will collect between
the pins, and cause an electrical fault. Such faults can
generate high levels of heat, which can damage charging
cables and the devices being charged, as well as injure
users. However, when a LoRho Series PPTC is placed
on the connector’s Vbus line, the device will sense the
