Business Wire
Bel Power, a division of Bel Fuse Inc. (NASDAQ:
BELFA) (NASDAQ: BELFB), announced the expansion of their VRPx
Series of SIP (single inline package) footprint POL (point-of-load)
converters to include 30A, 90A, 100A, 110A and 120A modules. These
non-isolated DC/DC converters are the latest addition to Bel
Power’s portfolio of SIP converters that now comprise vertical and
horizontal mount parts capable of delivering 3A to 120A of output
current. Operating at efficiencies of up to 95% over a wide input
range of 4.5V to 13.8V, the cost-effective, open-frame series offer
an ultra-wide output voltage trim range of 0.5 Vdc to 5.1 Vdc. The
fixed frequency devices moreover feature an integrated heatsink to
maximize usable power density. Notably included in the series are
step-down DC/DC converters boasting an IMON pin for output current
monitoring and parts with a Power State Indicator (PSI#) pin for
phase dropping and higher efficiency during light-load states.
Step-down DC/DC converters, compatible with Intel VRM11.1
requirements, are also provided. Components are designed to meet
worldwide standards for safety and performance and are RoHS EU
Directive 2002/95/EC-compliant.
Engineered for a broad array of PC board mounted power
applications, the POL modules' SIP package enables their use in
almost any space-constrained application in which a 12V power
source is available. The VRPx Series' competitive pricing and
compact size make Bel Power's newest DC/DC converters ideally
suitable for employment in such networking and telecommunications
equipment as servers, workstations, computers and peripherals.
Boasting a remote on/off pin, low ripple current and
differential remote sense, the VRPx Series' components switch at a
fixed frequency (400KHz or 500KHz module dependent). They moreover
incorporate control and protection features including input
under-voltage lockout, output over current/short circuit
protection, 2-, 3-, or 8-bit VID (Voltage Identification Digital),
and a power good signal. For more detailed information on the Bel

In production quantities, per-piece pricing for the VRPx Series
of non-isolated DC/DC converters is $9.35 and $17.20, for the 30A
and 90A modules, respectively. Parts featuring outputs of 100A,
110A and 120A are priced at $18.35 each. Samples and production
quantities are available from stock with lead times of up to 12
weeks. To locate a representative, visit
