DC-DC converter module save space, energy and time at the test house

Now available from Dengrove Electronic Components ideal for saving space in medical-device designs, the RECOM REM1 series, is a 1W DC-DC converter family certified to medical IEC/EN/ANSI/AAMI 60601-1 and general IEC 62368-1 equipment safety standards. The series is also covered by a CB Test Report, which simplifies access to international markets. The converters are packaged as compact SIP7 modules, providing two means of patient protection (2MOPP), with 250V working voltage, 5.2kV/1-minute isolation, and 8mm creepage and clearance, within the 19.6mm x 6mm x 10.2mm outline. In addition to meeting high safety standards and helping new OEM products pass approval tests quickly and economically, the REM1 series also delivers flexibility and high performance. Input-voltage options are 3.3V, 5V, 12V, 15V, or 24V, and the output can be 3.3V, 5V or 12V. Maximum efficiency of 85% keeps power dissipation low, and enables the converters to operate in ambient temperatures from -40C to 90C without derating.
