RECOM leads the market again with the release of the RACM06E-K/277, an economical 6W AC/DC converter with an exceptional range of features in a tiny 1” X 1” form factor.
This board-mount, through-hole module accepts inputs from 80-305VAC (120-430VDC) for worldwide nominals from 100-277VAC and output options are 3.3V, 5V, 12V, 15V, or 24VDC. The thermally optimized design of the module enables operation over a wide temperature range, -40°C to +90°C, with a full load rating of up to 60°C. Over-temperature and output short circuit/over-voltage protection are provided while an MTBF of nearly 2M hours at 25°C and a design life of 43,000 hours ensures trouble-free operation over long periods.
Certifications for the RACM06E-K/277 are comprehensive and include IEC/EN 62368-1 for IT/multimedia, IEC/EN 60335 for household, and IEC/EN/ANSI/AAMI 60601-1 for medical, where 2MOPP isolation is achieved, along with less than 0.1mA touch current for body floating (BF) patient connect applications. ‘Class B’ EMC specifications are met with a good margin, with a floating output.
The RACM06E-K/277 is rated for operation to 5000m in over-voltage category II (OVCII) environments according to IEC/EN 62368-1 and to 3000m for OVCIII, according to IEC 61558-2-16. The part is encapsulated with a plastic casing and the case size is 25.6 x 25.6 x 16.6mm and the weight is just 20 grams.
This miniature AC/DC solution is ideal for small, portable devices that require an AC supply in various global environments. It can also be considered for a variety of other uses such as an economical and convenient auxiliary supply in larger power conversion equipment or to power IoT nodes.
