Compact 1 W and 2 W DC-DC converters target medical applications

XP Power today announced the IMM series of 1 and 2 Watt DC-DC converters. The IMM01 1 Watt and the IMM02 2 Watt converters are designed for use in medical applications. Providing a 1500 VAC input/output isolation at a 250 VAC working voltage to facilitate a 1 x MOPP the single and dual output units are approved to the international medical safety standards ANSI/AMII ES60601-1, CSA 22.2 No 60601-1 and EN/IEC60601-1.

The IMM01 and IMM02 are available with a choice of two 2:1 input voltage ranges based around a nominal 5 VDC (4.5 to 9.0 VDC) and 12 VDC (9.0 to 18.0 VDC) inputs. Single output models provide the popular nominal outputs of +3.3, +5, +12 or +15 VDC. Duals provide the combinations of +/- 3.3, +/- 5, +/- 12 or +/- 15 VDC.

Packaged in industry standard SIP-7 or SIP-8 formats the units occupy very little PCB. The IMM01 uses a SIP7 footprint and measures 19.50 x 10.60 x 9.20 mm. The SIP8 2 Watt IMM02 is 21.85 x 10.60 x 9.20 mm. Capable of operating in most environments over the extended operating temperature range of – 20 to + 100 degrees C, the convection cooled units can deliver full power up to + 60 degrees C.

A remote On/Off input pin allows external control of the converter operation from a host application such as to sequence startup.

The IMM series is available from Farnell, element14, Digi-Key, approved regional distributors, or direct from XP Power and come with a 3 year warranty.
