DC-DC converter is used to convert DC current from one level to another.This article provides information on one of the DC-DC converters, the 40IMX35D12D12-8.It further explains its application field and working principle.

Application Field

40IMX35D12D12-8 is a DC-DC converter manufactured by 40 Electronics. It is available in a compact size and can be used in a variety of applications such as high-end industrial applications, automotive applications, solar and renewable energy applications, and many more.Its small size and isolated output makes it suitable for use in DC-DC conversion for multiple devices such as motor drive systems, industrial AC/DC converters, UPS systems, and many more.

Working Principle

As a DC-DC converter, 40IMX35D12D12-8 works under the principle of DC-DC conversion. In DC-DC conversion, a DC voltage source is used to convert a constant voltage to a higher or lower voltage with the help of a converter device. The converter device consists of a power element, transformer, and rectifier circuits. The power element is responsible for controlling the current and voltage signals, while the transformer and rectifier circuits are responsible for converting the voltage. The rectifier circuit uses diodes to convert the alternate current into direct current, which is then converted to the desired voltage level. Once the voltage is converted, the current is rectified and then sent back to the input (source) of the DC-DC converter.

40IMX35D12D12-8 is designed as a highly efficient converter. It can convert a wide range of input voltage from 10-80V DC. Its narrow-style construction allows it to maintain efficiency even at low input voltage and a reasonably high maximum input current. Its fixed switching frequency keeps total harmonic distortion (THD) to a minimum, which in turn reduces the influence of EMI. Further, the power output of 40IMX35D12D12-8 is adjustable and its isolated output makes it highly suitable for high-end industrial applications.
