AC-DC converter module delivers 10 kW in power tablet configuration
Vicor Corporation has announced a 3-phase, AC-DC converter module (“RFM”), capable of delivering 10kW of regulated 48VDC in a power tablet configuration measuring 9.4 x 5.9 x 0.6in (24 x 15 x 1.5cm). The RFM provides a power-factor-corrected, regulated, and isolated DC output with integrated filtering and built-in fault protection for redundant operation. The RFM […]
BGA package option comes to 48-V ZVS buck regulator series
Vicor Corporation announced the PI354x-00-BGIZ, the latest addition to the 48V Cool-Power ZVS Buck Regulator portfolio, offering a new BGA package option to the existing PI354x-00-LGIZ LGA series. PI354x Cool-Power ZVS Buck Regulator’s high-performance ZVS topology enables 48V direct to PoL without sacrificing performance. With step-down regulation from a higher voltage source, engineers can deploy […]
DC-DC converter modules drive tighter regulation loads
Vicor Corporation introduced 25 new products to its growing family of DC-DC converter modules (DCMs) with tighter output voltage regulation of ±1%. With power densities of 1,032W/in3, the new series allows engineers to drive loads requiring tighter regulation with minimal additional circuitry or downstream components. The DCM ChiP (Converter housed in Package) is a DC-DC […]
12V to 48V non-isolated up converter supports data center high-performance GPUs
Vicor Corporation announced a 12V to 48V non-isolated up converter to support 48V high-performance GPUs in data centers that are still relying on legacy 12V power distribution. The 2317 NBM converts 12V to 48V with over 98% peak efficiency, 750W continuous and 1kW peak power in a 23 x 17 x 7.4mm surface-mount SM-ChiP package. […]
Power modules provide 1 kA from 48-V sources to run GPU/CPU/XPUs efficiently
Vicor Corporation announced a new Power-on-Package (“PoP”) ChiP-set including Modular Current Multipliers (“MCMs”) for high performance GPU, CPU, and ASIC (“XPU”) processors. PoP MCMs multiply current and divide voltage from a 48V source in close proximity to XPUs to enable higher levels of XPU performance. Power distribution efficiency and system density rise beyond the limitations […]
New DC-DC converter family powers modern railway applications
A family of wide input range (43 – 154 V input) 3623 (36 x 23 mm) ChiPs with power levels up to 24 0W and 93% efficiency target new rail transportation and infrastructure applications. Modern rail infrastructure requires a wide range of dc-dc converters to power a variety of new services for both freight and […]
ZVS buck regulator puts out 20 A at 24 V
The new Cool-Power ZVS buck, PI3325-00-LGIZ, represents the highest current output ZVS buck to date for 24/28-V applications, providing a regulated 5-V output at up to 20 A. Packaged within a 10x14x2.5-mm LGA SiP package, the PI3325-00-LGIZ addresses the continued need for high power density across a growing spectrum of applications. It also offers pin-for-pin […]
Isolated dc-dc converters feature ±1% regulation
Vicor Corporation announced the expansion of its family of isolated, regulated DC-DC converter modules (DCMs) in ChiP packages, with a range of ±1% voltage regulation devices. With power densities of up to 1,032 W/in3, the new series will offer engineers the option of directly driving loads that require tightly regulated output voltages. Vicor’s current family […]
