QD48 Dual Quarter Brick Family
DC-DC Converter Data Sheet
The new
QD48
Family of dual output, 48 V input, DC-DC
converters from Power-One offers unprecedented per-
formance in a quarter brick package by providing two in-
dependently regulated high current outputs. This is ac-
complished by the use of patent pending circuit and pack-
aging techniques to achieve ultra-high efficiency, excellent
thermal performance and a very low body profile.
In telecommunications applications the
QD48
converters
provide up to 15 A per channel simultaneously - 30 A total -
with thermal performance far exceeding existing dual quarter
bricks and comparable to dual half bricks.
Unique to quarter bricks, the
QD48
converters utilize inde-
pendent power trains and control functions for each output,
allowing very tight output voltage regulation and very low
channel interference. In some applications they can be used
to replace two single-output quarter bricks.
Low body profile and the preclusion of heat sinks minimize
airflow shadowing, thus enhancing cooling for downstream
devices. The use of 100% surface-mount technologies for
assembly, coupled with Power-One’s advanced electric and
thermal circuitry and packaging, result in a product with ex-
tremely high reliability.
The
QD48
family provides any combination of standard volt-
ages from 5.0 V to 1.2 V in an industry standard seven-pin
package. Outputs can be trimmed from –10% to +10% of the
nominal output voltage, thus providing outstanding design
flexibility.
The
QD48
family is designed to be a drop-in replacement for
existing dual designs, and utilizes a common trim function for
both outputs. The converters are also available in a surface
mount package.
Inclusion of this new converter in new designs can result in a
significant reliability improvement over other available duals
because of its optimized thermal efficiency.
