AC-DC brick converters — Advanced Energy Industries Inc.
Advanced Energy extended its Artesyn AIF family of intelligent, integrated, and configurable full-brick AC-DC converters with the addition of a 48-V module. The AIF11WAC operates with best-in-class efficiencies up to 93% and delivers a small form factor solution for the latest 48-V power architectures in 5G remote-radio-head RF, robotics, 3D printing, and industrial designs.
Rated for 500 W of continuous power and offering a wide 90- to 264-VAC input range, the AIF11WAC reduces system size and component count. Integrated PMBus control and monitoring as well as an intuitive GUI simplify power supply optimization and enable ongoing system health measurements during operation. A fully encapsulated construction supports operation in high-pollution and harsh environments, as well as systems that require external mounting, such as external signage, IP-sealed industrial automation systems, heavy industrial equipment that generates conductive dust, and 5G telecom communication nodes.
