Compact AC-DC supply delivers 65 W of ‘green’ power from 2″ x 4″ footprint

XP Power announced today the ECS65 series of next generation single output open frame AC-DC power supplies. Capable of delivering 65 W and measuring just 2 x 4 x 1.05 inches (101.6 x 50.8 x 26.7 mm), these highly efficient convection cooled units are rated at up to 90% efficiency. Importantly, with a no load power consumption of less than 0.5 W, the ECS65 series will aid designers of end-products ensure their systems meet all internationally recognized energy efficiency standards.

The ECS65 has a wide operating temperature range from -20 degrees C to + 70 degrees C, that suits most applications. Full output power is available up to +50 degrees C with derating above. The units meet UL/EN60601-1 medical and UL/EN60950-1 commercial safety standards making them suitable for a broad range of industrial and healthcare applications.

Providing all the popular nominal outputs from +12 to +48 VDC, the single output ECS65 has a wide input voltage range of 80-275 VAC. A covered version is also available. They also comply with the EN55011 / EN55022 level B standard for conducted emissions without the need for additional filtering components. Overvoltage, overload and short-circuit protection features are included as standard.

The ECS65 series is just one of XP Power’s line-up of “green” AC-DC power supplies. More information on the full range, and XP’s own Green Power initiative can be found here: http://www.xppower.com/page.php?pagename=Energy&lang=EN

All products have a 3 year warranty.

The ECS65 is priced $32 for 500 pc orders and is available from stock from Newark or direct from XP Power.

Quickly and accurately identify inter-domain leakage issues in IC designs

Sponsored by Siemens Digital Industries Software

Power domain leakage is a major IC reliability issue, often missed by traditional tools. This white paper describes challenges of identifying leakage, types of false results, and presents Siemens EDA’s Insight Analyzer. The tool proactively finds true leakage paths, filters out false positives, and helps circuit designers quickly fix risks—enabling more robust, reliable chip designs. With detailed, context-aware analysis, designers save time and improve silicon quality.
