Vicor 1300W Power Converter Offers 96% Efficiency

Vicor DCM5614

 May 4, 2020

Vicor has announced the DCM5614, an isolated, regulated 270V-28V DC-DC converter with an output power rating of 1300W in a 5.6×1.4×0.3 inch VIA package. Providing unmatched power density of 451W/in3 at a weight of just 178g, the DCM5614 supports advanced airborne, shipboard and UAV systems where power density, weight and efficiency are critical.

With 96% efficiency, power dissipation is significantly reduced, and the innovative planar and thermally adept VIA package enables multiple cooling strategies for enhanced thermal performance. Modules can also be easily paralleled for increased power or stacked for increased output voltage.

When combined with downstream regulators and PoL current multipliers, the DCM enables power system architects to achieve power-system solutions with outstanding performance metrics and low total cost.

  • Isolated, regulated DC-DC converter
  • Up to 1300W, 46.43A continuous
  • 96% peak efficiency
  • 451W/in3 power density
  • Wide input range 180 – 400VDC
  • Safety Extra Low Voltage (SELV) 28V nominal output
  • 2121VDC isolation
  • ZVS, ZCS high-frequency switching

icotek: UT Cable Grommet, The New Slotted U-Shaped Cable Grommet for Frameless Installation up to IP54

The UT cable grommet is an U-shaped cable bushing and makes it possible to route single pre-connectorized cables as well as standard cables with a diameter range of 4 to 11 mm into enclosures. The wall thickness of the enclosure can be from 1 to 4 mm. The UT is a split grommet that can be mounted around the cable. The UT grommet is ideal for installation on the lower part of the enclosure.

Panduit: Improved VeriSafe Absence of Voltage Tester

The new VeriSafe 2.0 Absence of Voltage Tester (AVT) leverages the same test in the existing Verisafe AVT, but with many new features and expanded applications. With the push of a button, workers can quickly determine voltage status and see an active indication when the absence of voltage is confirmed. The automated test minimizes risk by verifying the absence of voltage before equipment is accessed, making it easier for workers to verify an electrically safe work condition.
