IAM48 is the second generation DC input front-end, designed to occupy minimum board space while providing maximum transient protection for today's sophisticated electrical systems. IAM48, in combination with Vicor's 48V input 2nd Generation DC-DC converters, provides comprehensive protection, including surge, transient and reverse polarity protection.
The Vicor IAM48 is a component-level, DC input front-end module designed to provide inrush current limiting and input transient protection for 48V input DC-DC converters. It is engineered to occupy minimum board space while offering maximum transient protection for sophisticated electrical systems. When used in combination with Vicor's FM-48 filter module, the system meets conducted EMI specifications for Telcordia, FCC, and European Norms.
