Low-cost DC-DC converter family

30 November 2020

THE TSR-E, TEA, TBA and TEC series of low-cost DC-DC converters are available from 1 to 3 watts and cover 12 new product families.

Traco Power has taken a simple and effective design approach. By innovative engineering, the company says it has come up with an electrical design which minimises component and labour costs. A key focus of those designs was to maximise automation of the manufacturing process. This was achieved by:

  • Using transformers which are wound by machine
  • Standard pinning layouts where the pins can be soldered by a robot
  • Minimising the number of components and only use SMD components for DC-DC converter which can be soldered by robot
  • Building automated testing facilities for fully automated Burn-In Testings

With this design, Traco Power optimised automation of the manufacturing process which enabled it to launch cost- and quality-optimised, low power DC-DC converters suitable for high volume IoT projects.

Key specifications of the TSR-E, TEA, TBA, TEC DC-DC converters are:

  • Highly cost-efficient design
  • Standard I/O isolation of 1500VDC with optional 4000VDC
  • -40 to +86°C operating temperature range without derating
  • Available input ranges ±10%, 2:1 and 4:1
  • Industry-standard SIP-4, SIP-7 and SIP-8 packages
  • 3-year warranty

Applications

• Space and cost critical applications
• High volume projects where simple and reliable products are needed
