VE-25V-MV-F4

DC DC Converters

A DC to DC converter is an electrical device that converts DC from one source to another. Generally it is used to supply power from multiple sources, such as batteries, and to adjust the voltage of the output. This can be done in either a linear fashion, which is relatively inefficient, or in a more efficient switch-mode technique.

VICOR\'s VE-25V-MV-F4 is a high-efficiency, wide-input range DC to DC converter. It is part of the "E" series of high efficiency DC-DC converters, providing up to 90% efficiency in a miniature form factor. The VE-25V-MV-F4 is ideal for applications requiring reduced power loss and increased power density.

Application Field and Working Principle

The VE-25V-MV-F4 is designed for use in a wide variety of applications, including automotive, industrial, medical and aerospace systems. It can provide regulation of both step-up and step-down DC to DC voltages, allowing for the efficient regulation of both input and output currents. It is capable of providing current up to 25A, and can operate in both linear and switch-mode modes.

The VE-25V-MV-F4 operates using a synchronous buck-boost switching design. This method provides a more efficient power conversion than a standard switching regulator, as power is wasted much less. The converter utilizes a voltage regulator to control the output, ensuring a stable output voltage and current.

The VE-25V-MV-F4 features a wide operating temperature range, from -40°C to +85°C, allowing for reliability in a wide variety of applications. It is also designed for hot-swapping, allowing it to easily be replaced while the system is still operating. It is also fully protected from overvoltage, overload, short-circuit, and thermal overload.

The VE-25V-MV-F4 provides a compact, efficient and reliable solution to DC to DC voltage conversion, with a wide input and output voltage range as well as a high current rating. It is an ideal solution for compact, high-efficiency systems.
