Flex Power Modules presents its PKU4116HD through-hole DC / DC converter, with 36-60 V input (80 V peak) and fully regulated 55 V output. The open frame module is the industry standard 1 / 16th brick format, 33.02mm x 22.86mm x 9.8mm, and is rated at 110W / 2A at an ambient temperature of 50 ° C with natural convection and at 85 ° C with additional air flow. Excellent thermal performance also allows operation at 100 ° C ambient with derating. Efficiency is high, typically 92.4% at 48 Vin, full load and proven technology are used to provide high reliability at an attractive price.

The PKU4116HD features monotonic starting in a pre-polarized load, remote control function and full protection against overheating, input undervoltage, output overvoltage and overcurrent. Standby power is typically 0.5 W.

Input / output insulation is 2250VDC and conforms to IEC / EN / UL 62368-1. Together with the 55V output, this makes the room particularly suitable for Power over Ethernet (PoE) applications as well as a power supply for RF power amplifiers in microwave radio systems and small cells. The conducted EMC levels EN 55022/32, CISPR 22 and FCC part 15J can be achieved with a simple network of external filters.

The PKU4116HD is suitable for pin-in-paste reflow processes for convenient automated assembly.

David Xie, Director of R&D and Product Management at Flex Power Modules, comments:
“This new sixteenth brick DC / DC is a great addition to our line with its very competitive price. It is ideal for PoE applications and price sensitive cellular base stations ”.

Flex Power Modules has been a technical pioneer in power module development for over 40 years with quality designed and built into products at every step. The PKU4116HD series benefits from this long experience and has been fully qualified which, together with highly automated manufacturing, guarantees reliable operation. Flex Power Modules products benefit from ISO 9001/14001 certification and unparalleled technical support.
