The EXB250 is a new high efficiency, open-frame, isolated
165 Watt converter series. The EXB250 delivers very high output
current at low voltages and excellent useable power density for
today's high-end applications. The design takes advantage of
open-frame construction to provide a low weight, low thermal
impedance baseplate design. The simplicity of the baseplate
design enables customers to easily manage cooling of the product,
eliminating the guesswork associated with competing products.
The seven models in the series feature an input voltage range of 33
to 75VDC and are available in output voltages of 12V, 5V, 3.3V,
2.5V, 1.8V, 1.5V and 1.2V. The output voltage on each model is
adjustable from 90% to 110% of the nominal value. Typical
efficiencies for the models are 90% for the 3.3V, 88% for the 2.5V,
and 87% for the 1.8V version. The EXB250 series also has a remote
on/off capability. Overcurrent and overvoltage protection features
are included as standard. With full international safety approval
including EN60950 (TÜV Rheinland) and UL/cUL1950, the EXB250
reduces compliance costs and time to market.

Notes
1 The control pin is referenced to Vin-.
2 Active low Remote ON/OFF is available. Standard
product is active high. When ordering active low parts,
designate with the Suffix '-R' e.g. EXB250-48S1V2J-RJ.
See Application Note 119 for detailed information
regarding ON/OFF control control implementation.
3 When ordering 0.145" pin lengths designate with the
Suffix'-N',
if the product is already a '-R' suffix product then the
suffix will be '-RNJ'.
4 When ordering 0.110" pin lengths designate with the
Suffix'-K',
if the product is already a '-R' suffix product then the
suffix will be '-RKJ.
CAUTION: Hazardous internal voltages and high tempera-
tures. Ensure that unit is accessible only to trained person-
nel. The user must provide the recommended fusing in
order to comply with safety approvals.
