TEP 100-4815

DC-DC converters are electronic components used in applications that require the conversion of a direct current (DC) input, into a direct current output of different voltage. The TEP 100-4815 DC-DC Converter is no exception; designed to convert a 15 – 48V DC Input, into a 3.3V – 12V DC output. It also features over-voltage protection, reverse input protection and short-circuit protection.

Input Power Range

The TEP 100-4815 converter has an LED light that indicates the status of the converter\'s power input, and it utilizes a 15 - 48V DC input voltage to power the converter. If the input voltage is higher than 48V, the input voltage will be cut off, and the LED will turn off immediately to prevent any damage to the converter.

Output Power Range

The TEP 100-4815 converter offers a wide range of power configurations that make it suitable for a variety of applications. It can generate a 3.3V - 12V DC output voltage, and has an output current of up to 1.5A. It also has over-voltage protection, which limits the output voltage to 5 to 12V, to protect the converter from damage.

Efficiency

The TEP 100-4815 converter has a wide operating temperature range of -40℃ ~ +85℃, and its efficiency can reach up to 88%, making it a reliable and energy-efficient choice for a variety of applications. The converter also features reverse input protection, which prevents any damages to the electronic components that would be caused by a reversed input voltage.

Working Principle

The TEP 100-4815 converter works on the principle of a buck converter, which is an electronic component that steps down the voltage from an input source to the desired output. It consists of a MOSFET control which is used to regulate the amount of current being drawn from the input source, and an inductor which stores and releases energy to maintain the output voltage. The MOSFET is then driven by a PWM (Pulse Width Modulation) control signal to switch the MOSFET on and off at a determined frequency.

When the MOSFET is switched on, the current from the input source charges the inductor, and the stored energy in the inductor is then released to the output when the MOSFET is switched off. This process is repeated and the average value of the output voltage is controlled by varying the on and off times of the MOSFET, which is regulated by the PWM control signal.

Applications

The TEP 100-4815 DC-DC converter is suitable for a variety of applications, including portable medical equipment, automotive electronics, industrial power supply systems, and other electronic circuit projects. Such as powering radios, displays, and LED indicators. This converter is a reliable and cost-effective solution for those looking for a powerful and energy-efficient DC-DC converter.
