➀ XP Power has developed two new DC-DC converter series with a 12:1 ultra-wide input range, addressing various applications in renewable energy, battery systems, and railways; ➁ The RDF150 and RDF200 series operate from a 14V-160V DC input range and are designed to simplify power solutions in railway systems; ➂ These converters are suitable for engineers and designers in renewable energy, battery systems, and railway infrastructure.

➀ Advanced Energy has announced a half-brick dc-dc converter capable of delivering 1.3kW at 28V; ➁ The ADH1300-48S28 is designed for telecom wireless base stations and RF power amplifiers; ➂ Input range is 36 to 75Vdc, with an adjustable output across 14 to 33Vdc and efficiency peaking at 95.5%.

1. Texas Instruments has introduced six multi-amp dc-dc converters using integrated moulded magnetics, reducing their size significantly. 2. The new 'MagPack' branded devices feature a stacked control IC and inductor coil, with a proprietary magnetic material over-moulded to serve as the package. 3. Three of the six devices are claimed to be the industry's smallest 6A power modules, with nearly 1A per 1mm².
