(Nasdaq: AEIS), a leading company in precision power solutions, has unveiled an innovative 1100 W board-mounted power factor correction (PFC) module. This new offering, known as the AIH03ZPFC, is the first of its kind in a compact half-brick format.<\/p>\n<p>This module is tailored for use in various fields including industrial, medical, defense, and telecommunications, where efficiency, thermal performance, and size are vital. With a regulated, non-isolated output of 390 V DC, the AIH03ZPFC achieves an impressive peak efficiency of 97.3%, which is a 2.3% increase compared to earlier models. Additionally, it boosts power density by 44%, reaching 380 W per cubic inch.<\/p>\n<p>The AIH03ZPFC also features advanced elements not typically found in half-brick designs, such as internal inrush limiting and digital PMBus control and monitoring. Auxiliary power capabilities ensure that essential functions can operate without increasing the module&#8217;s size, allowing customers to create even smaller power systems.<\/p>\n<p>David Richmond, Senior Vice President of High Volume Products at Advanced Energy, commented, \u201cThis represents a significant leap forward in power design, thanks to our proprietary technology. The AIH03ZPFC combines substantial power with numerous integrated features, reducing losses by 46% compared to previous models and setting new benchmarks in the field.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The module offers a unity power factor across a broad input range of 85 to 264 VAC, eliminating power derating in low-voltage scenarios. It&#8217;s easily compatible with standard heatsinks and thermal management solutions, and can be used either as a standalone PFC or in conjunction with downstream DC-DC converters.<\/p>\n<p>Designed for a wide operating temperature range from -20 to +100\u00b0C, with startup capabilities as low as -40\u00b0C, the compact half-brick measures 2.4 x 2.3 inches (61 x 58.4 mm) and has a slim profile of 0.52 inches (13.3 mm). This design integrates digital control and monitoring features, promoting high-density system designs while improving performance visibility.<\/p>\n<p>For more updates on energy solutions, consider exploring recent stories such as the expansion of PowerSouth&#8217;s Lowman Energy Center and new collaborations aimed at digitizing energy networks across Australia.<\/p>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Advanced Energy Introduces Groundbreaking Power Module Advanced Energy Industries, Inc.
