11 July 2007
Power Electronics / Power Management
Designed to meet the space and performance needs in low-power telecommunication, industrial control and embedded systems applications, Astrodyne has released the PV15 line of high density enclosed switching power supplies that provide 15 W of output power. All models accept universal input from 90 to 264 V a.c. and five models are available, providing single outputs from 5 V to 48 V d.c. All models feature integral EMI filtering for EN55022 Class B compliance.
These power supplies feature an integral power-good LED indicator and output adjustment potentiometer and will operate over the ambient temperature range of -20 to +50°C without forced cooling or output power derating. All models contain over-voltage and short-circuit protection circuitry. Dimensions are 65,8 mm x 50,3 mm x 27,9 mm (L x W x H) and all models feature screw terminal input/output connections.
