RECOM announces the launch of its RS12-Z series of 4:1 input DC/DC converters, providing 12W in a SIP-8 package.

Leveraging advanced planar technology, RECOM now offers a full 12W output in the industry-standard SIP-8 package from their new RS12-Z series of DC/DC converters up to 75 °C in free air, the highest power available in this format. With a footprint of just 2cm², the range features 4:1 inputs of 9 – 36V or 18 – 75V with surge ratings to 50V and 100V respectively and regulated single outputs of 3.3, 5, 12, 15 or 24V, all trimmable +/-10% and with remote on/off control. Short circuit and under-voltage protection are included along with 3kVDC/1s isolation and EN 62368-1 certification. EN 55032 class A or class B EMC levels are met with a simple, low cost external filter. The series features a metal casing providing EMI shielding as well as enhanced thermal performance with case tabs providing mechanical stability and additional heat sinking to the customer’s PCB.

“We have incorporated radical design changes in our new RS12-Z series, with a planar transformer construction and metal casing to push the limits of power density achievable in the SIP-8 package” commented Steve Roberts, Innovation Manager at RECOM. “The series is ideal for nominal 12, 24 or 48V systems where real estate is at a premium and full power is needed over a wide temperature range.”

Samples and OEM pricing are available from all authorized distributors or directly from RECOM.
