Up to 72W 4:1 Input
16th Brick DC-DC Converters
Londonderry, NH – October 10, 2018 – Semiconductor Circuits, Inc. expands the power rating of the “Cool Power Technologies” wide input range 16th brick DC-DC converter series. These open frame (through-hole or SMT) or baseplated modules provide up to 72W of output power @ output voltages of 5.0, and 12Vdc – ideal for distributed power architecture applications or as a fully regulated intermediate bus converter. These modules are compliant with DOSA 16th brick footprint and interface standards. The converters have a wide input voltage range of 18 to 72 VDC (9-36 Vin upon request) & provide 2250 VDC input to output isolation.
The CPT 4:1 series offers output voltages from 3.3V to 48V and input voltage ranges of 9-36Vin or 18-72Vin. Other power levels and output voltages in the 4:1 input series are available upon request. We also welcome quick-turn modifications and custom configurations to meet our customer’s particular requirements.
The CPT 4:1 input series meets EN 60950 basic insulation requirements and is RoHS III Directive 2015/863/EU and REACH 1907/2006 – 205 SVHC compliant. The module complies with all of the typical industry requirements including no load operation, 2X nominal input voltage transient and pre-biased load startup.
Other features include: fixed-frequency operation, auto-restart OVP, OCP & OTP protections, UVLO, remote sense and +/-10% output voltage trim using industry standard equations. Remote ON/OFF is standard with positive or negative logic options available.
The modules feature a standard 16th brick pinout with dimensions of 1.3” L x 0.9” W (33.02mm x 22.86mm.) They have a maximum height of 0.374″ (9.5mm) which accommodates tight card spacing with minimal airflow blockage of downstream components. Baseplate modules offer a standard 0.500″ inch max. height [12.7mm] for interfacing with heat spreader/chassis surfaces.

Londonderry, NH – January 23, 2018 – Semiconductor Circuits, Inc. introduces the new “Cool Power Technologies” Compact Chassis Mount DC-DC converter series.
Londonderry, NH – September 14, 2017 – Semiconductor Circuits, Inc. introduces the CPE6D24, CPE6R24 and CPE5R48 “Cool Power Technologies” wide input range 8th brick DC-DC converters designed for use in power radio and other applications where it is intended to directly replace larger quarter bricks modules (identical pin out and functionality.) The converter features an industry standard 18-36Vdc or 36-72Vdc (24 or 48Vdc nominal) input voltage ranges and have outputs trimmable from 21-34Vdc (model dependent – see datasheet.) The modules have a typical full load efficiency of 93% which allows for use over a wide ambient temperature range with minimal derating. The open frame design is also available with an optional baseplate for those applications where conduction cooling is required or preferred. This module is compliant with DOSA footprint and interface standards.
