January 2005 – Digital Power Electronics announce the introduction the latest addition to their market leading range of ultra-high power density switch mode power supplies.

The new series is designated eFO800 and can deliver from 600 to 800 watts continuous power output depending on configuration.

The market leading power density is made possible by very high efficiency synchronous rectification topology, implementation of advanced components and low profile magnetics and a high degree of surface mount assembly. This combination of state of the art design and technology means the dimensions of the eFO800 are just 229 x 102 x 80 mm and it will fit in a 2U rack shelf.

Two input options are available, universal AC (85 – 264VAC) with active power factor correction and 48VDC. The main output features remote sense and all units include OR-ing diodes allowing single wire current sharing for increasing output power or n+1 redundant operation. The power supply has control signals for power-good and inhibit for systems integration. Full international safety agency approvals, UL, cUL and CE have been attained.

Over 60 models are available from a single output 5VDC @ 100A to eight outputs over the range 2.5VDC to 48VDC. The eFO800 is a continuation of the “flexibility” series and may be configured to non-standard, customer specific output voltages with ease. The power supplies are internally fan cooled and will operate at full power over the temperature range -5°C to +50°C. Reliability is calculated at >300,000 hours per Belcore TR-NWT-000332, issue 6.

Melanie O’Connor, General Sales Manager of Digital comments, “The eFO800 is a unique product which will offer our customers an unprecedented amount of power in a very small space. We are constantly being asked for more power from smaller footprints and unusual output voltages. I am sure that this new addition to our “flexibility” range will be a best seller”.

Typical applications for the eFO800 series include; industrial systems, process control telecom, etc.
