Powering innovation: Next generation of DC/DC converter from RECOM at Rutronik

The programmable outputs of the R24C2T25 isolated DC/DC converter allow customers to evaluate different components and set the optimum voltage levels for the best combination of system efficiency and safety without expensive and time-consuming design changes. One output can be set between + 2.5 VDC and + 22.5 VDC, the other between - 2.5 VDC and - 22.5 VDC with a total positive-to-negative voltage of 18 VDC to 25 VDC to drive SiC gates most efficiently. The isolation of the R24C2T25 is 3 kVAC / 1 min with an extremely low coupling capacitance of 3.5 pF and a common mode transient immunity of +/- 150 V / µs.

In addition to its programmability, the new series impresses with its low weight and space requirement (7.5 mm x 12.83 mm, 36-pin SSO package) combined with high power density. The SMT package improves the high-frequency behavior by reducing parasitic effects and line lengths for applications with fast switching speeds. 

The 2 W DC/DC converter is a versatile solution for isolated gate bias voltages, especially for transistors such as IGBTs, Si, and SiC MOSFETs, as well as Cascode GaNs, and is the ideal choice for applications such as robotics, wind turbines, photovoltaic systems, or battery management systems.
