XP Power has introduced the JTH15 series of 15W dc/dc converters. Fitting into a metal cased compact 50.8 x 25.4 mm (2 x 1 inch) footprint, they are suited to low power, board mounted designs. The series can accommodate a wide 4:1 range of input voltages, from 9 36 VDC or 18 72 Vdc. Both single and dual output versions are available. The single output device is available with +3.3, +5, +12 or +15V rails, while the dual version has +/-5, +/-12 or +/- 15 outputs.
Models are fully regulated, with a line regulation of +/-0.5% and a load regulation of +/- 0.5%, 10-100% load. Input to output isolation is rated at 1,500 Vdc. The JTH15 series will suit most environments without the need for additional heat sinking or airflow. The units operate from -40 degrees C to +100 degrees C, with derating above +60 degrees C. The converters have a high MTBF of >1.2 million hours to MIL-STD 417F for long life and high reliability.
