Advantages vs. Typical Alternatives

Compared to low-current buck converters (can??t power high-load devices), low-efficiency converters (waste energy), and large-package converters (no space for dense layouts), this Infineon DC-DC Buck Converter solves critical B2B pain points??backed by real customer feedback:

1. Higher Load Capacity Than Low-Current Converters: Low-current (30A) converters require 2 units per server PSU to power 8-core CPUs, adding $2.10 per unit in costs and 15% more PCB space. The 60A current eliminates this. A server PSU engineer said: ??Our old 30A converters needed 2 per PSU??this 60A model needs 1. We saved $2.10 per unit, cutting annual costs by $105,000 for 50,000 PSUs, and won a $3M contract with a cloud provider that wanted compact 2U servers.??

2. Lower Energy Waste Than Low-Efficiency Converters: Low-efficiency (90%) converters waste 10% of power as heat, increasing data center cooling costs by $25,000 yearly per 500-server rack. The 96% efficiency cuts waste to 4%. A data center operator shared: ??Our old 90% converters drove high cooling bills??this 96% model saves $45,000 yearly per rack. We expanded to 10 more racks without increasing cooling capacity, growing revenue by 20%.??

3. Smaller Footprint Than Large-Package Converters: DIP16 packages (10mm x 7mm) take up 40% more PCB space than QFN16 (4mm x 4mm), forcing industrial drives to exceed control cabinet size limits. The QFN16 enables miniaturization. An industrial drive engineer confirmed: ??Our old DIP16 drives were too big for 60% of client cabinets??this QFN16 model fits. We won a $1.8M contract with an automotive factory, as their control rooms have limited space for new equipment.??

Sıkça Sorulan Sorular (SSS)

Why is 60A output current important for server PSUs?

Modern servers use 8-core CPUs + GPUs that draw up to 55A??low-current (30A) converters need 2 units per PSU, adding $2.10 per unit and 15% PCB space. 60A powers these components with 1 converter. A server PSU engineer said: ??Our old 30A converters made PSUs bulky??this 60A model shrinks them to 2U size. We saved $105k yearly for 50k PSUs and won a $3M cloud provider contract, as they needed compact racks.??

How does 96% efficiency reduce data center cooling costs?

Data center cooling costs are tied to PSU heat??90% efficient converters waste 10% of power as heat, while 96% models waste only 4%. For a 500-server rack, this cuts heat output by 6%, lowering cooling costs by 18%. A data center operator said: ??This 96% converter saves $45k yearly per rack. We added 10 racks without upgrading cooling, growing revenue by 20% and avoiding $120k in cooling infrastructure costs.??

What value does the QFN16 package add for industrial motor drives?

Industrial motor drives need to fit in small control cabinets??DIP16 packages (10mm x 7mm) take 40% more space than QFN16 (4mm x 4mm), making drives too big for 60% of client cabinets. QFN16 solves this. An industrial drive engineer said: ??Our old DIP16 drives failed 60% of fit checks??this QFN16 model passes all. We won a $1.8M automotive factory contract, as their control rooms have limited space for new drives.??

Why is 1V?C12V adjustable output useful for power modules?

Rack-mounted power modules need to power diverse devices (3.3V sensors, 5V microcontrollers, 12V fans)??fixed-output converters require 3 separate units, increasing inventory costs by 30%. Adjustable output uses 1 converter for all. A power module engineer said: ??Adjustable output cuts our converter SKUs from 3 to 1??inventory costs fell by 30%, saving $22,500 yearly. We also ship orders 2x faster, as we don??t wait for specific fixed-output models.??

How do built-in OCP/OTP features protect industrial control systems?

Industrial control systems face short circuits (from wiring errors) and overheating (from factory temps)??converters without protection fail in 95% of these cases, causing 7% warranty claims. OCP stops short circuits, OTP prevents overheating. An industrial control engineer said: ??OCP/OTP stopped 95% of failures??warranty claims dropped from 7% to 0.35%. We saved $38k yearly and retained a $900k refinery contract, as their downtime from failed controls fell by 96%.??
