Ruggedized 6 Watt DC/DC Converters with Ultra-Wide 8:1 Inputs

San José, Calif. – October 27, 2025: TRACO Power is proud to announce the release of the new TEC 6UI series of ruggedized 6 Watt DC/DC converters.

The TEC 6UI series comprises isolated DC/DC converters featuring an ultra-wide input range. These next-generation converters are engineered to seamlessly replace and serve as an alternative to existing 2:1 and 4:1 input converter series – delivering uncompromised performance and cost-efficiency. With an input voltage range of 9 to 75 VDC, the TEC 6UI supports a broad spectrum of standard bus voltages, reducing the need for multiple model variants within a single application.

Each model includes built-in protections such as short circuit protection, overcurrent limitation, undervoltage lockout, and remote-control functionality. The converters are certified for an operating temperature range of -40°C to +80°C in accordance with IEC/EN/UL 62368-1 and are capable of functioning at altitudes up to 5000 meters.

Housed in a compact SIP-8 plastic case, the TEC 6UI series is well-suited for space-constrained applications. Available in both single and dual output configurations, these converters are ideal for a wide range of industrial applications.

Key Features:
• Compact SIP-8 plastic case

• Ultra-wide input range: 9 VDC to 75 VDC

• IEC/EN/ES 62368-1 Certified

• Operating temperature from -40°C to +80°C

• I/O isolation 1600VDC

• Operation up to 5000m altitude

• Short circuit protection and over current limitation

• Under voltage lockout

• Remote ON/OFF

• 3-year product warranty

The new TEC 6UI models are in stock now and available through
TRACO Power’s global distribution network. Please see https://www.tracopower.com/tec6ui for documentation and sourcing.

Want early design analysis without simulation?

Sponsored by Siemens Digital Industries Software

Traditional verification methods are failing today's complex IC designs, which require a proactive, early-stage analysis approach. A shift-left methodology addresses IP block integration challenges and the limitations of traditional simulation and ERC tools. Insight Analyzer detects hard-to-find leakage issues across power domains, enabling early analysis without full simulation. Identify inefficiencies earlier to reduce rework, improve reliability, and enhance power performance.
