Hi-Rel DC-DC converters

31 January 2017 Power Electronics / Power Management

Gaia Converter extended its ultra wide input voltage range DC-DC converter platform with the new High Rel MGDD-40 series, targeting military and airborne applications.

The 9-60 V and 80 V transient input voltage range is ideal to comply with Mil-Std-1275, 704 or DO-160 standards without an additional front-end protection device. This performance is achieved thanks to Gaia’s proprietary switching techniques while also keeping efficiency over 90%.

With two outputs (for parallel, serial or symmetrical operation) of 5 V, 12 V, 15 V and 24 V, they can cover a wide variety of needs such as single 5 to 48 V output, ±15 V or 2x24 V outputs, for example. Packaged in a very low-profile 0,84 x 3,81 x 4,45 cm housing, the MGDD-40 series has a wide temperature range of -55°C to +105°C and are potted to fit rugged military and airborne environmental conditions.

The units are full featured and protected with zero- to full-load regulation, trim and on/off capability, adjustable UVLO, soft start, embedded EMI filter as well as over-current and over-temperature protection. They can also be synchronised and/or paralleled for added power or N+1 redundancy. Designed for rugged applications, the MGDDI-40 series does not use any optocoupler.
