NiQor-Non-Isolated, Ultra-High Efficiency DC-DC Converters

Telecom Non-Isolated DC-DC Converters

Non-Isolated, Ultra-High Efficiency DC-DC Converters for Telecom, Industrial and Medical Applications

The NiQor® DC-DC converter is a non-isolated buck regulator, which employs synchronous rectification to achieve extremely high conversion efficiency. The NiQor family of converters are used predominately in DPA systems using a front end DC-DC high power brick (48 Vin to low voltage bus). The non-isolated NiQor converters are then used at the point of load to create the low voltage outputs required by the design. The wide trim module can be programmed to a variety of output voltages through the use of a single external resistor.
