DC DC Converters - REC3-4812SRWZ/H2/A/M/X2 application field and working principle

REC3-4812SRWZ/H2/A/M/X2 is a high-quality, feature-rich, and reliable DC-DC converter located on the second tier of Vicor\'s post-regulated voltage modules (VRMs). It is designed with high power density in mind, allowing it to operate in high temperature environments with improved heat dissipation while maintaining an ultra-low noise profile. It provides high-efficiency, wide input voltage range, high isolation voltage, extended temperature range operation, and low output noise.

The primary purpose of the REC3-4812SRWZ/H2/A/M/X2 is to take a large input voltage and convert it to a smaller output voltage. This is done by using an internal switching transistor (usually MOSFETs), capacitors, and inductors, to create a DC-DC converter. The input voltage is first rectified, then "chopped" into smaller individual voltages via the switching transistor. These individual voltages are then filtered through an LC filter circuit and combined to create the final output voltage.

The power density of the REC3-4812SRWZ/H2/A/M/X2 is impressive, and allows it to be used in high temperature, demanding environments. It has an input voltage range of 4.5-36V, an output voltage range of 0.59-48V, and offers up to 96% efficiency. This DC-DC converter also has a wide temperature range of -40°C to +85°C, making it well suited for applications in extreme temperatures. Additionally, its extended temperature range allows for continuous downstream thermal control.

The REC3-4812SRWZ/H2/A/M/X2 is ideal for modern, high-end applications that require ultra-low noise and high power density ratings. It can be used to down-convert large voltages to the very low output range required for modern processors, as well as for providing voltage regulation for applications such as network servers, storage systems, and FPGAs. The small footprint and high efficiency of the DC-DC converter also make it suitable for a wide range of applications in the defence, aerospace, medical, and industrial sectors.

The REC3-4812SRWZ/H2/A/M/X2 is a unique product in the Vicor product line, offering a range of features and performance characteristics that make it a great choice for a wide range of applications. The device is built using the latest switching technology, and offers excellent power density, ultra-low noise, and wide input voltage and temperature ranges.
