May 13, 2003- International Rectifier, IR® introduces a new line of 10 watt, radiation-hardened, "off-the-shelf" DC-DC converters. The new devices are available either unscreened or screened to Class K per MIL-PRF-38534, simplifying qualification processes and enabling faster project completion compared to custom-designed converters.
Small and light, the new S-series converters are an ideal choice for low power circuits such as analog and digital control power systems, as well as signal amplifiers and sensors in geo-synchronous (GEO) and low earth orbit (LEO) satellite applications.
The new converters feature 28 VDC input, with single or dual output configurations, and operate up to 81% efficiency. The new S Series converter line includes various functional and protection features such as under-voltage lockout, output over-voltage limiter, on/off inhibit, short-circuit and overload protection. Other features include magnetically coupled feedback, with radiation hardness of 100krads total ionizing dose (TID).
The new converters address the requirements of neutron fluence and prompt dose requirements that may be the key design considerations in many applications. Refer to the data sheet for single event effect (SEE), neutron, and prompt dose immunity for optimum performance.
