VI-B3T-EX-F2

DC-DC Converters are electrical devices that convert direct current (DC) from a given source into a new desired form of electrical energy. This type of converter is useful in applications where an isolated power source is required or where the voltage required is different from the available input voltage. One example of a DC-DC converter is the VI-B3T-EX-F2, which is commonly used in industrial operations, automotive, and energy storage applications. This article will discuss the application field of the VI-B3T-EX-F2 and its working principle.

Application Field

The VI-B3T-EX-F2 DC-DC converter is designed for a variety of applications. In general, it is used to convert standard 96Vdc input voltage to various, adjustable output voltages ranging from 12Vdc to 99Vdc. This type of converter is an ideal choice for industrial applications, particularly in load cell and weighing scales, automotive battery management, home appliances, energy storage systems, and telecommunications.The VI-B3T-EX-F2 is also suitable for power converters that require higher performance such as automotive& Vehicles, Electric Vehicles (EVs), and Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS) devices. The device is designed to handle high switching frequency and transient load in extreme temperatures. In addition, it is RoHS and Pb free compliant.

Working Principle

The VI-B3T-EX-F2 DC-DC converter is based on a simple but effective buck-boost topology design, which is suitable for both AC and DC input sources. The converter features a non-isolated design, meaning that the input and output circuits of the board are not electrically isolated from each other. This allows the converter to operate optimally in harsh environments and when high efficiency is required.The main components of the converter are two switching transistors, an inductor, a diode, an opto-coupler, and a voltage regulation control IC. The switching transistors act as switches, controlling the amount of current that is allowed to pass through the circuit. The inductor stores the energy that is used to generate the output voltage, while the diode allows current to flow in one direction only. The opto-coupler provides signal isolation between the input and output circuits, and the control IC is responsible for the regulation of the output voltage.When AC power is applied to the input of the VI-B3T-EX-F2, the switching transistors are periodically activated to charge the inductor. The electric field generated by the inductor creates a magnetic field which induces the output voltage. The opto-coupler isolates the input and output circuits while the control IC ensures that the output voltage remains constant despite changes in the input voltage.

Conclusion

The VI-B3T-EX-F2 DC-DC converter is a versatile and efficient device suitable for a wide range of applications. It is designed to handle high switching frequency and transient load in extreme temperatures and can accept both AC and DC input sources. The converter is comprised of two switching transistors, an inductor, a diode, an opto-coupler, and a voltage regulation control IC, and is RoHS and Pb free compliant. This device is ideal for a range of industrial applications, heavy-duty automotive systems, energy storage systems, and more.
