DC DC Converters

DC-DC converters serve as a vital link between the DC sources of power in a system and the loads that require DC power. These sophisticated devices can convert low voltage DC to higher voltage DC, high voltage DC to lower voltage DC, or even AC to DC. No matter the task, the process can be broken down to its basic components: input, control and output.

The DPX2024WS05 DC-DC converter is one of the most reliable and popular converters for industrial applications. It is a non-isolated buck converter that offers up to 95% efficiency, low noise, and wide input voltage range. It offers multiple output current levels, with the highest being 24A. Furthermore, it features a variety of protections, including over temperature, over current, and short circuit.

Application Field

The DPX2024WS05 DC-DC converter is designed for industrial applications, spanning a wide range of industries and applications. It is particularly used in applications where high reliability and repeatability are needed, such as in medical equipment, renewable energy, robotics, LEDs, and other industrial control applications. Its wide input voltage range allows it to be installed in both 24V and 48V systems, making it a popular choice in vehicles, marine, and stationary applications.

Working Principle

The working principle of the DPX2024WS05 DC-DC converter can be broken down into 3 stages. First, a voltage regulator stage. This stage takes the input voltage and regulates it to an optimal level. Second, switching stage. A power switch controls the conduction of the circuit, allowing energy to be transferred from the regulator stage to the output stage. Finally, there is the output stage, which is responsible for the delivery of power. This stage transforms the regulated input voltage into the output voltage and current.

The power switch is controlled by a Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) signal. The controller adjusts the PWM pulse width to maintain the output at a predetermined voltage value. This control method allows for improved efficiency compared to linear regulators, and also allows for fast response time to load changes.

Conclusion

The DPX2024WS05 DC-DC converter is a reliable and cost-effective choice for industrial applications and other medium power requirements. With its wide input voltage range, high efficiency, fast response time and low noise levels it is an ideal choice for consumer and industrial applications alike.
