Quarter brick module enables transition to 48 V
infrastructure at efficiencies up to 97% across wide load
range
Advanced Energy Industries, Inc. (Nasdaq: AEIS) – a global
leader in highly engineered, precision power conversion,
measurement and control solutions – today announced the company’s
first non-isolated bus converter (NIBC) in industry-standard
quarter-brick format for 48 V power conversion in compute and
telecom applications. Operating at up to 900 W with efficiencies as
high as 97%, the new Advanced Energy Artesyn™ NDQ900 DC/DC
converter provides a single, regulated 12.25 V output and
incorporates a PMBus interface for flexible digital control and
monitoring.

The NDQ900 NIBC features a wide 40 V to 60 V DC input range and
is ideal for high-power computing, networking, telecommunications,
data storage and test and measurement applications requiring a
regulated 48 V to 12 V bus conversion. A flat efficiency curve
ensures that the quarter-brick module delivers optimum power
conversion performance for a wide range of loads.
“The combination of ultra-high-efficiency operation, thermally
optimized design and digital control addresses the growing demand
for 48 V power conversion solutions in data center and enterprise
computing systems,” said Joe Voyles, vice president of marketing,
industrial power conversion products at Advanced Energy. “The
high-power-density NDQ900 optimizes performance while minimizing
power consumption across multiple load scenarios.”
Built around a baseplate construction that serves to improve
thermal management and simplifies attachment of a heatsink, the
NDQ900 is designed for optimal thermal performance. With forced air
cooling, the module can deliver full power over an operating
temperature range of -40 °C ~ +85° C.
The NDQ900 is a fixed-frequency converter with no minimum load
requirement. It features an active current sharing capability that
facilitates the connection of multiple power supplies in parallel
for applications requiring higher load current or redundancy. In
addition to PMBus connectivity, the module offers a remote-control
function and a power good signal.
Approved to all international safety standards, the NDQ900
features an integrated under-voltage lockout (UVLO) function and
protection against over-current, over-voltage and over-temperature
conditions. Advanced Energy supplies the module with a two-year
warranty as standard.
