In summary, a DC/DC converter, converts a DC voltage into another DC voltage output. The engineer must consider several critical parameters prior to selecting the right DC/DC converters including nominal input voltage, input voltage range, desired output voltage, amount of output current draw, number of outputs, and the space available on the PCB. Kaga Electronics/Volgen’s compact DC/DC converters feature single and dual output models. All models have a wide 4:1 input voltage range. The full line of DC/DC converters start at 5 watts with the MT5A series, followed by the 10 watt MT10A series, and finally the 20 watt MT20E series.
