VICOR VI-ARM-H122

The ARM (Autoranging Rectifier Module) is an AC front end module which provides autoranging line rectification and inrush current limiting. The ARM is available in either 500/750W or 750/1500W models in a quarter-brick package measuring only 2.28x1.45x0.51 in. The ARM interfaces directly with worldwide AC mains and may be used with Vicor 300V input DC-DC converters to realize an autoranging, high-density, low-profile switching power supply. The ARM includes a microcontroller that continuously monitors the AC line to control bridge/doubler operation. The user need only provide external capacitance to satisfy system hold-up requirements. Vicor Micro series packaging technology offers flexible mounting options for various manufacturing processes. The ARM may be installed as a conventional leaded device for on-board applications, in-board for low-profile, height-restricted applications, socketed or surface mounted with optional ModuMate interconnect products.
