Asceta™ iQG Series DC/DC Power Modules 
 48V Input, 12V / 33A Output 
Quarter Brick
The Asceta™ power module series provides 
exceptionally high true useable power in an 
industry standard quarter brick format. With 
up to 96% efficiency and a maximum power 
rating of 400W, the Asceta series of DC-DC 
converters is ideally suited for tight space, 
power-hungry, ATCA applications in 
demanding thermal environments. This 
rugged building block is designed to serve as 
the core of your high reliability system. The 
droop current sharing capability allows 
multiple modules to be connected in parallel. 
The monotonic start-up into a pre-bias output 
capability with the synchronous rectification 
enhances versatility.
