DC-DC power modules help to bridge the 48V/12V transition

Power delivery networks (PDNs) are making a decisive shift from 12V to 48V architectures to take advantage of higher efficiency. This presents power system design challenges for legacy 12V systems. Listen to the podcast.

Podcast with Maury Wood, VP Strategic Marketing at Vicor

Maury discusses how power delivery networks (PDNs) are making a decisive shift from 12V to 48V architectures to take advantage of higher efficiency, but that seizing this opportunity presents many power system design challenges for legacy systems that have been optimized around 12V architectures for decades. Vicor has addressed this challenge by launching the DCM3717 and DCM3735 DC-DC power modules to enable power system designers to deploy high-performance 48V power delivery networks for legacy 12V loads and achieve significant size, weight and efficiency benefits.
