For applications requiring improved electrical and
thermal performance, consider Murata’s new PAH
series “Half Brick” DC-DC power converters. These
compact modules measure 2.3" X 2.4" X 0.5" (58
X 61 X 12.7mm) and offer the industry-standard
Half Brick footprint.
The PAH Series is ideal for power amplifi er
applications, wireless networks, and telecom
applications. The baseplate provides a means for
conduction cooling in demanding thermal environ-
ment conditions.
The module provides a 28Vdc output at 12.5 Amps
and accepts a wide input voltage range of 18-36 or
36-75 Vdc. The PAH topology offers high effi ciency
(up to 93%), tight line and load regulation, low ripple/
noise, and a fast dynamic load response. A single-
board, highly optimized thermal design contributes to
the superior thermal performance.
These half-bricks provide output trim, sense
pins, and primary side on/off control. Standard fea-
tures also include input under-voltage shutdown,
output over-voltage protection, output short-circuit/
current limiting protection, and thermal shutdown.
