Vicor IBC054 VI Brick bus converter range

Powerbox has available Vicor’s IBC054 series of wide-input range VI Brick bus converters, available as drop-in upgrades for 5:1 and 4:1 converters.

These eighth and quarter bricks achieve up to 98% efficiency from a 36 to 60 V input at power levels from 300 to 750 W, with 2250 VDC isolation from input to output.

The series offer a transient surge capability of 75 V_in for 100 mS for telecom, Power-over-Ethernet and other applications.

The amplitude converter is the engine behind the range of high input voltage bus converters and low output voltage current multipliers. It offers higher performance than obsolete ‘square wave’ converters that are fundamentally limited by switching losses to low operating frequencies, low power densities and low bandwidth.

A cross reference selection tool enables users to quantify the opportunity to increase the efficiency and power density of their IBA power system.
