MPQ 60W from P-DUKE

We are pleased to introduce the new MPQ 60W DC/DC power supplies from P-DUKE.

The applications for DC-DC converters span a wide range of industries, from aerospace and military applications to commercial and industrial sectors. Regardless of the circuit topology of the DC-DC converter used, there are basic parameters, certifications and a certain level of robustness that designers must meet in order to satisfy the most stringent medical requirements.

Certifications and tests related to medical applications for power supplies or converters are primarily defined by their isolation and leakage current. These two parameters relate to the level of protection a patient experiences when in contact with the power supply. However, there are a variety of other parameters to consider when selecting a DC/DC converter to ensure optimal performance over the life of the device.

The video below looks at the certifications for DC-DC converters for medical purposes and the basic parameters to consider when selecting these devices.
