Product Overview
These DC-DC converter modules use
advanced power processing, control and
packaging technologies to provide the
performance, flexibility, reliability and cost
effectiveness of a mature power component.
High frequency ZCS/ZVS switching provides
high power density with low noise and
high efficiency.
