Astrodyne Corporation introduces a compact, half-brick COTS AC/DC power module that offers high efficiency and reliability. The PFC-375 is ideal for use in military and commercial applications, as well as in shock vibration and harsh environments.
“The PFC-375 offers high power factor, compliance with MIL STD 704 transient and MIL STD 461 and RTCA DO-160 total harmonic distortion requirements. It provides a smaller sized, lower power alternative to our ¾ brick, 650W, PFC-650 module while offering the same performance characteristics,” Jerrold Hornstein, director of business development at Astrodyne, said.
Other features of the PFC-375 include: insulated metal substrate construction, over temperature shutdown capability, automatic recovery, an operating temperature of -55 to +100 degrees Celsius, a frequency range of 47 to 880 Hz, a 1 A output amperage, a 375 V output voltage, a power factor of 0.99 and more. The PFC-375 also comes in RoHS compliant or SnPb solder versions and meets MIL STD 461 and RTCA DO-160 conducted emissions and line harmonics compliance, according to the company.
