The InQor Sixteenth-brick converter series is
composed of next-generation, board-mountable,
isolated, fixed switching frequency dc-dc converters
that use synchronous rectification to achieve
extremely high power conversion efficiency. Each
module is supplied completely encased to provide
protection from the harsh environments seen in many
industrial and transportation applications.
