Buck-boost DC-DC konvertere opererer med op til 99 procent effektivitet

TDK-Lambda i9C serien af 1500W non-isolated DC-DC buck-boost konvertere retter sig mod krævende industrielle og batteriforsynede applikationer.

TDK launces the TDK-Lambda i9C series, a 1500W non-isolated DC-DC buck-boost power module designet to maximise system efficiency, reduce thermal stress, and extend battery runtime in demanding industrial and battery-powered applications.

The i9C series launches with a 9 - 80 V input, 9.6 - 60 V output model delivering up to 30 A. A second configuration supporting a 9 - 40 V input range with 5 - 36 V output and up to 50 A is planned to follow, expanding the series’ voltage and current options.

At the core of the i9C series is TDK-Lambda’s patented programmable high-efficiency pass-through (PHEPT) technology. PHEPT allows designers to define an input-voltage window in which the module bypasses regulation and directly connects the input to the output, eliminating switching and conversion losses. 

When operating in this mode, efficiency can reach up to 99 %, significantly reducing heat generation and improving system reliability for  The user-configurable sleep mode programs the power module into a low-power dissipation state during idle or light-load conditions. The adjustable overcurrent protection reduces stress on both the power module and load and helps engineers reduce or eliminate external circuitry.

The i9C is packaged in a compact, wide quarter-brick form factor with an integral baseplate that supports convection, conduction, or forced-air cooling, making it well suited for high-ambient, low-airflow enviroments.

Standard control and protection features include negative-logic on/off control, power-good, remote sense, user-adjustable overcurrent protection, low-power sleep mode, and full auto-recovery protection. The user-configurable sleep mode programs the power module into a low-power dissipation state during idle or light-load conditions. The adjustable overcurrent protection reduces stress on both the power module and load and helps engineers reduce or eliminate external circuitry.

The i9C series is designed for use in industrial, communications, test and measurement, and battery-powered applications, including AGVs, AMRs, commercial drones, and humanoid robotics. The modules are certified to IEC/UL/CSA/EN 62368-1 safety standards and carry CE and UKCA markings for the Low Voltage, EMC, and RoHS Directives.
