Small 100 W AC/DC switcher for industrial and medical applications

25 January 2006 Power Electronics / Power Management

The ECM100 single-output AC/DC switching power supply from XP Power is claimed to be the world's most compact unit of its type. Using innovative physical and electrical construction, it comes with full industrial, IT and medical approvals to make it suitable for industrial, medical and comms OEM applications. With a footprint of 114,3 x 63,5 mm and a height of 30,5 mm, the power density of the ECM100 is a class-leading 0,452 W/cm³.

Additionally, the unit features Class I and Class II approvals, EN61000-3-2,-3 compliance, and Level B performance for conducted emissions. Outputs are from +3,3 V to +48 V d.c. and the power supplies have safety approvals for any voltage within this range, including custom-specified outputs. Input voltage is from 85-264 V a.c. (170-270 V d.c.) and efficiency is up to 87%.

The ECM100 has very low earth leakage current: less than 100 μA at 115 V a.c. and less than 200 μA at 230 V a.c.. Inrush current is 40 A maximum at 230 V a.c. with the input protected by 3,15 A fuses in both line and neutral. Input to output isolation is 4000 V a.c.

Outputs are adjustable by ±5% on 3,3 V and 5 V models and by ±10% on those with higher output voltages. Line and load regulation are ±0,5% and ±1% respectively and there is no minimum load requirement. The operating temperature range is 0 to +80°C and the power supplies have over-temperature, over-voltage, and overload protection built in.
