20W Triple-Output DC-DCs for Avionics and MRO Designs
Modular Devices, Inc. (MDI) has expanded its POWRMOD product line, specifically designed for Avionics and commercial Aviation MRO applications, with the PM3704DC-DC 20W triple output dc-dc converters. These units offer a primary output of +5Vdc at 1A, and dual secondary outputs of +/- 12-Vdc or +/- 15-Vdc at 400mA.
The PM3704 features the following: No external components required. Precision machined metal case for heat removal and EMI shielding; Common Mode EMI Filters (Input and Ouput); Low Ripple, independently regulated outputs; Fast Transient Response Time; Simple On-Off control; Short Circuit and output overload protection; Full magnetic isolation (No Optocouplers); Works through input transients of DO-160G; Designed for long life, reliable operation in Avionics environments; Power Supply Watchdog signals
PM3704's come in a 48.27x48.27x10mm machined metal case with corner flanges for ease of mounting and effective thermal management. All POWRMOD products are available with Commercial Screening (-40 to +85 degrees C ) or Rugged screening (-55 to +105 degrees C) levels. PM3704 is designed to suit cost conscious, avionics and MRO applications.
