150W DC/DC has 10:1 input range
Our PKM7200W series of DC/DC converters comes with an ultra-wide input range of 16-160 V (185 V/1 sec) and is ideal for world-wide rail applications. In a case size of just 62 x 40 x 13 mm (2.44 x 1.57 x 0.51 inch) the products provide 150 W continuous output power and 12 V, 24 V or 54 VDC fully regulated single outputs. The parts achieve up to 89% efficiency and feature 4 kVDC isolation, meeting the requirements of EN 50155 for rail, as well as IEC/EN/UL 62368-1 for IT and audio/visual applications.
The PKM7200W series has the novel feature of a VBUS pin, an input-referenced connection that is boosted to around 100 V, irrespective of the input voltage. This can be used to charge a user-supplied capacitor which the DC/DC switches in when the input power is interrupted. The feature enables long hold-up time with a relatively small capacitor, to meet the 10 – 30 ms requirements of EN 50155.
The products are compliant with the rail fire safety standard EN 45545-2 and have been qualified to EN 61373 and the IEC 60068 series of standards for environmental testing. EN 50121-3-2 for EMC in rail applications is met, as well as EN 55011 and the EN 61000-4 series of standards for EM immunity. EMI conducted emissions meet EN 55032, CISPR 32 and FCC part 15J ‘Class B’ with an external filter.
The PKM7200W series operates from -40° C to +100° C baseplate temperature with derating, depending on attached heatsink and airflow. Typically, the parts provide full load with a 20 mm attached quarter-brick heatsink up to 60° C ambient air temperature in natural convection and to around 90° C with 3 m/s airflow.
The PKM7200W series is fully featured, with a programmable input under-voltage lockout, remote control, output trim and remote sensing. Comprehensive protection includes over-temperature, and output short-circuit, over-voltage and over-current.
