The PQ60240EGL03 PowerQor® Giga eighth-brick converter is a next-generation, board-mountable, isolated, fixed switching frequency DC/DC converter that uses synchronous rectification to achieve extremely high conversion efficiency. The power dissipated by the converter is so low that a heatsink is not required, which saves cost, weight, height, and application effort. All of the power and control components are mounted to the multi-layer PCB substrate with high-yield surface mount technology. Since the PowerQor converter has no explicit thermal interfaces, it is extremely reliable. RoHS compliant (see page 12).

Operational Features
• High efficiency, 90% at full rated load current
• Delivers up to 3 amps of output current (72W) with
   minimal derating - no heatsink required
• Wide input voltage range: 35V – 75V, with 100V
   100ms input voltage transient capability
• Fixed frequency switching provides predictable EMI
   performance
• No minimum load requirement means no preload
   resistors required

Mechanical Features
• Industry standard eighth-brick pin-out configuration
• Industry standard size: 0.90” x 2.3” (22.9x58.4mm)
• Total height only 0.349” (8.86mm), permits better 
   airflow and smaller card pitch
• Total weight: 0.68 oz. (19 grams)
• Flanged pins designed to permit surface mount 
   soldering (avoid wave solder) using FPiP technique
