Product Details

The BusQor® BQ55120ETx20 bus converter is a nextgeneration, board-mountable, isolated, fixed switching frequency dc/dc converter that uses synchronous rectification to achieve extremely high conversion efficiency. The power dissipated by the converter is so low that a heat sink is not required, which saves cost, weight, height, and application effort. The BusQor series provides an isolated step down voltage from 35- 55 V to a 12 V intermediate bus with no regulation in a standard “eighth-brick” module. BusQor converters are ideal for creating the mid-bus voltage required to drive point-of-load (non-isolated) converters in intermediate bus architectures. RoHS Compliant (see last page).
