Series A & SM

Product catalog summary
Product Overview: The Series A & SM are ultra-miniature, unregulated DC-DC converters with a compact footprint of 0.500” x 0.500”. They are available in over 200 models with single and dual outputs, operating efficiently from -25°C to +70°C without requiring a heat sink or active cooling.
Features: These converters deliver up to 1.25W output at +70°C ambient temperature. They are encapsulated with conservatively rated semiconductors for reliability and feature ultra-miniature sizes with heights as low as 0.300”. Input voltage ranges from 5 to 48V, with output models up to 250V and isolation up to 1000VDC at 100MΩ. No heat sink or derating is needed.
Specifications: Available in through-hole (Series A) and surface mount (Series SM) configurations, these converters offer various input and output voltage options with single and dual output models. Efficiency varies by model, and they meet MIL-STD-202 standards for vibration, shock, humidity, and altitude.
Environmental and General Specifications: Operating temperature range is -25°C to +70°C, with storage temperatures from -55°C to +125°C. They have a temperature coefficient of up to 0.05%/°C and are cooled by free air convection. Isolation voltage is 500V for ≤48V output models and 1000V for ≥100V output models. Switching frequency ranges from 20 to 40 kHz.
Options and Compliance: Expanded operating temperature options (-55°C to +85°C) and RoHS compliance are available. Additional screening per MIL-STD-883, including stabilization bake, temperature cycle, and burn-in, can be requested.
Mechanical Drawings and Packaging: Detailed mechanical drawings are provided for both through-hole and surface mount models, with dimensions in inches and millimeters. Tube packaging options are available for Series A models.
Warranty Information: Pico Electronics offers a one-year warranty from the original shipment date, ensuring products are free from defects in material and workmanship. The warranty covers repair or replacement but excludes liability for consequential damages or specific use cases outside the product's specifications.
Usage and Liability: Products are not guaranteed for purposes beyond their specifications. Consultation with Pico Electronics is advised for use in nuclear, radioactive, or space environments. The company reserves the right to discontinue or modify products without notice.
