ADQ500 Series
Active
500 W Quarter Brick
The 500 W quarter-brick isolated DC-DC converters in the ADQ500 series offer regulated 12 VDC and up to 42 A output from an input range of 36 to 75 VDC with a typical full-load efficiency of 95.5%. Switching at 175 kHz, the parts are designed for 48 V supplies in computing, server, and communications equipment. Operating ambient temperature range is -40 to 85ËšC. Standard protection features include input undervoltage, overvoltage lockout, output overvoltage, output overcurrent, and overtemperature conditions. The converters offer pre-bias start-up and allow paralleling with automatic droop method of current sharing. Choose from digital and analog interface options as well as open-frame and baseplate versions with 0.43 inch (11 mm) and 0.52 inch (13.3 mm) installed heights, respectively.

Digital DC-DC Product Portfolio
Jul 13, 2017
Artesyn has a growing range of digital DC-DC converters in standard brick outline and pin configurations.
Our single-output isolated modules (ADO300, ADQ500, ADQ700) offer excellent thermal performance, which, together with an enhanced pre-bias start-up capability, makes them an ideal choice for use in data processing and telecommunication applications, particularly for supplying power to non-isolated modules. Their open-frame design is optimized for forced air or conduction cooling. An aluminum baseplate option is available for enhanced thermal performance.
In digital non-isolated modules, Artesyn offers the LGA80D, which represents one of the highest density current ratings available in the industry. This innovative unit offers two 40 amp outputs, which can either be configured to a single 80 amp output or completely independently controlled. It is also possible to generate a higher current, up to 320 amps as a single power rail, by connecting up to four units in parallel. The wide trim feature of the LGA80D makes it suitable for use with a broad range of semiconductor devices.
The efficiency of the LGA80D is one of the highest available in this category.
Artesyn offers two evaluation kits for the range of digital DC-DC modules, to cover the isolated and non-isolated units. Using these evaluation kits, you can connect the demonstration board to a USB socket on a PC with the PMBus interface dongle and cable provided, and control and monitor the DC-DC modules as they would be used in an application.
The isolated demonstration board can be connected to the non-isolated board, enabling you to test the full DC-DC conversion process from 48 volt DC input at the system level to the low voltages at the processor level, with digital control throughout.
