Artesyn Embedded Technologies produces an extensive and rapidly growing range of small, isolated DC-DC converters for low-power industrial applications in areas such as automation, instrumentation, test and measurement, and telecommunications.
Artesyn's portfolio of industrial DC-DC converters for low-power applications comprises four different families, all of which are suitable for ruggedized applications in harsh environments. They are fully encapsulated and housed in metal cases for robustness, accommodate a wide operating temperature range, and are high-efficiency, high power density designs. Spanning power ratings from 3 W to 50 W, with single and dual outputs from 2.5 V to 24 V and ±5 V to ±15 V, the converters feature wide input voltage ranges for maximum design-in flexibility.
