Description
The QBK025A0B series of DC-DC converters are an expansion of a new generation of DC/DC power modules
designed to support 12Vdc intermediate bus applications where multiple low voltages are subsequently generated
using discrete/modular point of load (POL) converters. The QBK025A0B series provide up to 25A output current in
an industry standard quarter brick, which makes it an ideal choice for small space, high current and 12V
intermediate bus voltage applications. The converter incorporates synchronous rectification technology and
innovative packaging techniques to achieve efficiency reaching 94% at 12V full load. This leads to lower power
dissipations such that for many applications a heat sink is not required. The output is fully isolated from the input,
allowing versatile polarity configurations and grounding connections. Built-in filtering for both input and output
minimizes the need for external filtering.
RoHS Compliant

Absolute Maximum Ratings
Stresses in excess of the absolute maximum ratings can cause permanent damage to the device. These are absolute
stress ratings only, functional operation of the device is not implied at these or any other conditions in excess of those
given in the operations sections of the data sheet. Exposure to absolute maximum ratings for extended periods can
adversely affect the device reliability.

CAUTION: This power module is not internally fused. An input line fuse must always be used.
This power module can be used in a wide variety of applications, ranging from simple standalone operation to an
integrated part of a sophisticated power architecture. To preserve maximum flexibility, internal fusing is not included,
however, to achieve maximum safety and system protection, always use an input line fuse. The safety agencies require a
fast-acting fuse with a maximum rating of 15A (see Safety Considerations section). Based on the information provided in
this data sheet on inrush energy and maximum dc input current, the same type of fuse with a lower rating can be used.
Refer to the fuse manufacturer’s data sheet for further information.
