CAMARILLO, Calif., June 25, 2012 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Power-One, Inc. (Nasdaq:PWER), a leading global manufacturer of renewable energy and energy-efficient power conversion and management solutions, introduces the 1/8^th brick i-PWER™ SQE48T20120. This DOSA-compliant 20A DC-DC bus converter provides a fully-regulated 12 volt isolated output and operates across the full 36 to 75 input voltage range. 

The SQE48T20120 converter's outstanding thermal performance readily supports use in extreme environmental and reduced-airflow applications — particularly when thermally-mounted to a system enclosure with the available baseplate, thereby increasing effective heat conduction away from the converter and its load.

"The new bus converter being introduced, addresses our customers need for more power at the board level," said Edward Carter, VP and GM Industrial and Transportation Business Unit. "This converter continues to push efficiency higher and improves power density thus reducing the overall size of the power footprint on the customer's board."

The SQE48T20120 is full-featured, providing the capability to withstand a 100V input transient for 100ms. It meets Basic Insulation requirements, is UL94 V-0 flammability rated, operates down to no load conditions and will start up into pre-biased loads. This i-PWER product is fully protected including: hiccup-mode overcurrent, output overvoltage, input undervoltage lockout and overtemperature shutdown.
