Ericsson has introduced a new ultra-high-power-density DC-DC converter that can make a significant contribution to energy saving in data centers. The exceptional ability of this new small-footprint converter to handle high power and deliver tightly controlled output-voltages makes it ideal for use in networking and data storage equipment.

Available in an industry-standard quarter-brick footprint, the new module, BMR453-0108/014, provides an output voltage of 12.45V with an output current of 60A, delivering a total output power of 711W. The BMR453-0108/014 combines two Ericsson BMR453 series power modules, assembled in parallel and offers a power density as high as 33.38W/cm2 (215W/in2) while it embeds digital core controllers. Due to its built-in energy optimization capabilities, the BMR453-0108/014 delivers 96.9% efficiency at half load and up to 95.8% at full load.

"Not only are there are very few products available on the market that can to deliver this level of power handling in a quarter-brick format, the new Ericsson BMR453-0108/014 is also the first high-power-density solution based on digitally controlled DC-DC converters," said Patrick Le Fèvre, Marketing and Communication Director of Ericsson Power Modules.

Based on the BMR453 platform, the BMR453-0108/014 is the ideal product for powering networking applications such as network processing encryption, load balancing and managing data-center traffic, in addition to powering arrays of disk drives, which require a stable voltage to guarantee data integrity. The new product is also ideal for use in production and test systems, such as those used in the semiconductor industry.
