| | | 1/16th Brick 500W DC-DC Converters Roll |
| TDK has announced the 500W rated i7A non-isolated DC-DC converters. Capable of operating from an input voltage of 18V to 60V, the step-down converters deliver an output voltage that can be adjusted from 3.3V to 24V with an output current of up to 33A. The series is designed to be used in a wide range of applications including medical, communications, industrial and battery powered equipment. |
