15W, 20W and 30W DC-DC Converters for Medical Applications

June 26, 2018 by Paul Shepard

P-Duke Power has added 15W, 20W and 30W dc-dc converters designed for medical applications in the new MPM15, MPM15W, MPM20, MPM20W, MPD30, and MPD30W product families. They are offered with standard 2:1 input ranges and wide (‘W' models) 4:1 input ranges.

They have been approved by medical safety EN60601-1 and have the highest level of insulation, 2MOPP, which means they are suitable for each kind of medical applications. For example, X-ray, blood analysis, tomography, vision test machine, etc.

Available 2:1 input ranges include 9- to 18-Vdc, 18- to 36-Vdc and 36- to 75-Vdc. Available 4:1 input ranges include: 9- to 36-Vdc and 18- to 75-Vdc. All models are offered with single outputs of 5-, 12-, 15- and 24-Vdc as well as dual outputs of +/-5Vdc, +/-12Vdc and +/-15Vdc.

The 15W models are specified to deliver full power from -40 degrees C to 60 degrees C, derating linearly to zero power at 105 degrees C. 20W models are specified to deliver full power from -40 to +55 degrees C, derating linearly to zero power at 105 degrees C. The 30W models deliver full power from -40 to +40 degrees C, derating linearly to zero power at 105 degrees C.

Protection functions include overvoltage, overload and short-circuit protection. Remote On/Off is offered as an optional capability. These dc-dc converters have a switching frequency of 250kHz.
