Mouser and Vicor have come up with a range of resources for 48 V products and power designs.
The site offers a collection of in-depth articles, videos, and infographics, offering designers and manufacturers a comprehensive resource to develop new power designs with higher voltage 48 V distribution.
Unlike many common 12 V systems, 48 V systems can support the higher power levels needed to deliver increasing levels of performance and functionality. As power increases, 12 V buses become less efficient and consume more space and weight for cables to carry higher currents. 48 V systems eliminate these space and weight inefficiencies by drastically reducing currents and power losses.
The 48 V resource site features a recent instalment of Electronic Engineering Journal’s Chalk Talk video series, which provides an overview of the benefits, history, and applications of 48 V solutions.
The site also highlights 48 V products from Vicor, connecting engineers directly to the solutions needed for these advanced power designs.
Vicor 48 V architectures offer a substantial reduction in I2R losses and convert directly from 48 V to the load voltage without first regulating to 12 V, benefitting many industries,including UAV, robotics, and rail.
The 48 V site also features links to informative product information, videos and more, including an article that explains why power designs are transitioning from 12 V to 48 V.
The article analyzes the benefits of 48 V power designs as well as the various applications that could be transformed by this technology.
