The 48V DC/DC Converter from Eaton is designed for diesel-powered commercial vehicles and can be used to power accessories such as antilock brakes and lighting. The converter is operational in ambient temperatures up to 85 degrees C and boasts 97% design efficiency, according to the company. It takes power from a 48V system and reduces it to 24V. The bidirectional unit then further reduces the power to 12V for use in low-voltage systems and charges a 12V battery that stores power in case of a fault in the main power supply. Eaton offers a family of DC/DC converters that adhere to Automotive Safety Integrity Level B functional requirements and can be optimized to work with a manufacturer’s alternator specifications. The converters can also be tuned for specific duty cycles via advanced digital control architecture, enabling flexible control modes through firmware adaptation.
