Vicor Corporation today introduced
its high density, low profile, integrated VIA PFM AC-DC front-end power modules.
VIA PFM AC-DC front-end converter modules achieve a power density of 8 W/cm³ (127 W/in³) supplying an isolated, PFC regulated 24 V or 48 V SELV DC
output at up to 400 W from the universal AC input range of 85 to 264 V with 93%
peak efficiency.
The
VIA PFM is 5X thinner than traditional 1U supplies, offering unique design
advantages to power system architects challenged by size constraints. With its
9 mm thin profile and 36 mm width, the VIA PFM can be mounted on the sidewall
of any typical 1U chassis, saving valuable real estate.Thermally adept VIA PFMs may
be chassis mounted and conduction cooled to eliminate fans, thereby improving
overall system reliability and further minimizing the power system footprint. High
density, high efficiency and low thermal resistance make VIA PFM front-end modules
well-suited for a wide range of end-market applications, including small cell
wireless base stations, size constrained LED lighting applications, industrial
and automation systems.
About the Vicor Integrated
Adapter (VIA) 9 mm Thin Thermally Adept Modules
VIA
power modules enable power system designers to create highly dense, efficient,
flexible and scalable power systems. Vicor’s 9 mm thin VIA power modules
integrate system functions including EMI filtering, transient protection and
inrush current limiting to reduce design time and design risk. Available in
chassis-mount and PCB-mount configurations, VIA power modules support a
multiplicity of mechanical mounting and thermal management options.
Supporting Tools
Vicor’s
online PowerBench™ design tool suite enables designers to model a complete AC
to PoL power system with a modular power component design methodology. The
PowerBench tool suite provides the ability to quickly configure and visualize
end-to-end power systems and dynamically analyze system performance, accelerating
design cycles and reducing development costs.
