A major player in the energy and power generation industry needed a compact, high-reliability DC/DC converter for their latest systems. Specifically, they required isolated ±15V power to support the control electronics within advanced boiler and generation equipment. Their design required stable dual-output voltages, robust isolation to prevent electrical interference, and reliable operation across a wide temperature range.
Key design goals included:
- Dual ±15V outputs for analog and control circuits
- 3,000 VDC isolation to safeguard sensitive electronics
- Miniature SIP footprint to fit into space-constrained PCBs
- High efficiency and wide operating temperature (-40°C to +105°C)
The engineering team selected the MD100BI family from MicroPower Direct, delivering ±15V dual outputs, continuous short-circuit protection, and greater than 3.5 million hours MTBF in a compact SIP case. This solution ensured both safety and stable performance, even in demanding environments where temperature swings and electrical noise are common.
With MD100BI converters, the manufacturer achieved stable, long-term operation for critical subsystems—improving reliability and ensuring uninterrupted performance in modern energy generation applications.
