Today's AC-DC power systems need to be small, reliable, easy-to-use, and cost competitive while achieving modern system requirements for efficiency, power factor, and
conducted and radiated emissions.
400 W AC-DC Converter
The Vicor PFM is a highly advanced 400 W AC-DC converter operating from a rectified universal AC input which delivers an isolated and regulated Safety Extra Low Voltage (SELV) 24 V or 48 V secondary output.
