Product Description
The PFM (Power Factor Module) is a VI Chip
power component that converts a rectified
120/240 Vac line to an isolated, regulated DC
voltage programmable from 26 V to 48 V.
Rated at 200 W, the PFM meets EN61000-3-2
harmonic current limits and is available in a double
VIC package measuring only 1.69" (43,0) x
1.26" (32,0) x 0.25" (6,2). The PFM power density
is 375 W/in
3
.
The PFM is the front-end VI Chip for AC-DC
power systems. It requires only a rectifier, input
filter and an output capacitor to provide
a high density, power factor corrected, 200 W
power supply. The high operating frequency and
soft switching allow miniaturization of power train
components and make EMI filter components
smaller than those required by lower frequency,
hard switching converters. Output energy storage
is accomplished at SELV levels providing packaging
and interconnect flexibility not available with
conventional AC Front Ends.
PFMs may be paralleled with power sharing for
added power or redundancy in single or three
phase systems. The output voltage can be
programmedto meet therequirements of system
loads and/or additional downstream conversion
devices such as Vicor’s Pre Regulator Modules (PRMs)
and Voltage Transformation Modules (VTMs).
