Verotec Announces Slimline High Power Density 3U 4HP Pluggable PSUs

Power Channels: Power Components

Verotec has introduced new 3U 4HP versions of the EPLAX VeroPower family of 19 inch subrack pluggable ac-dc switched mode power supplies to add further capability to its KM6 subrack and metal enclosure families. At only 4HP (0.8 inches) wide and a standard 160mm deep, the new units are the slimmest available from any manufacturer, leaving the maximum possible space in the subrack for active system boards. The units are available with power rails that suit the requirements of many embedded computing applications. The complete VeroPower range consists of pluggable PSUs with power ratings from 20 to 150W.

Output power levels of 20, 40 and 50W are available. The 20 and 40W versions have 94-253Vac autoranging inputs; the 50W has a 115/230Vac switchable input. The monovolt 20W unit has single voltage rail outputs: 5V/4A; 12-15V/1.4A or 24V/0.8A. Three trivolt 40W versions provide either 5V/4A, +12-15V/0.6A and -12-15V/0.6A; +12-15V/1.4A, +12-15V/0.6A and -12-15V/0.6A or 24V/0.8A, +12-15V/1.4A and -12-15V/0.6A. The monovolt 50W unit gives 5V/10A, 12V/4.2A – 15V/3.3A or 24VV/2.1A. All versions use the industry standard H15 connector with the pin-out following the convention established by Vero Electronics when it first developed the pluggable PSU in 1976.

All outputs are highly stable, with worst case line and load regulation a maximum of 0.1% and ripple typically less than 20mVpp. Short circuit, output current limitation and output overvoltage protection are provided, and a powerfail signal is available on all 5V rails.

Energy Efficiency with Class D Amplifier Modules

Class-D switching amplifiers are helping audio designers create personal multimedia devices and home audio/visual systems that demonstrate how compact and stylish equipment can also deliver high sound quality and high audio output power. The key to this breakthrough, providing freedom from the large and bulky boxes housing traditional audio products, lies in the class-D amplifier’s high energy efficiency, which is typically around 90%. This allows designers to reduce or eliminate heatsinks as well as using smaller-sized PCBs and smaller components such as transformers, connectors and power supplies.

The Role of Hall Effect Sensors in Power Distribution Infrastructure

Power distribution units (PDUs) form an essential part of modern computing and data communications hardware. They provide multiple outputs for transferring electrical power with maximum efficiency, controlling the power capacity and safeguarding against the possible causes of supply interruption. With an ever increasing need from tech savvy consumers for higher data throughput and greater quantities of data storage capacity, as well as tough international legislation now governing CO&sub2; emissions, the demands being placed on these units are proving challenging for engineering teams to satisfy.
