Würth Elektronik extends its MagI³C-FDSM power module product range: The fixed step-down regulator modules now cover all bus voltages from 12V up to 48V. The modules facilitate development for applications with direct connection to bus voltages of 12V, 24V, or 48V.

The wide input voltage range up to 74.5V makes the FDSM module robust against voltage transients on the 48V bus. The new power modules are implemented in a cost-effective SIP-3 package and provide fixed output voltages of 3.3V, 5.0V as well as 12V, with an output current up to 0.5A.

Features of MagI³C-FDSM series

The MagI³C-FDSM series are fully integrated DC/DC voltage converters with fixed output voltage. Besides the power stage, the modules consist of a regulator, inductor as well as input and output capacitors. The power modules are protected against short circuits and thermal overload.

MagI³C-FDSM reduces the workload involved in circuit design to a minimum, as no external components are required for operation this reduces development costs and time. For simple assembly, the MagI³C-FDSM family has been realized in a standard THT housing. Pre-compliance testing of the evaluation board has shown the conducted and radiated EMI is below limits established by relevant standards.
