The low power Barracuda (previously known as the Stingray) family has a value proposition which is best illustrated by the ESTW006. This 72 W eighth brick has exceptional efficiency at almost 91% and thermal de-rating performance, maintaining full performance up to 80°C with 400 LFM airflow. This family plays in a number of end equipment applications, including many industrial designs needing isolation in thermally challenging environments. The ESTW006 is offered in both surface mount and thru-hole versions and is reflow compatible for use in manufacturing pick and place assembly. For thru-hole packages, the heat plate is an option to maximize the thermal performance of the brick.
