PKJ 4000 I Series
22-150 Watt DC/DC power modules
The PKJ 4000 I series represents a “third generation”
of high density DC/DC power modules providing
more than 90% efficiency. To achieve this high
efficiency they use proprietary drive and control
circuits with planar magnetics and low resistivity
multilayer PCB technology, and a patent pending
topology with active rectification.
The PKJ 4000 I series can be used without bulky
and height consuming heatsinks, resulting in a lower
total cost. This also provides narrow board spacing for
electronic, shelf based applications. The products are
in the industry standard package size and offer a
beneficial alternative to competing products on the
market. The PKJ 4000 I series also offers the
flexibility of using a heatsink when needed, enabling
reduced airflow, extended reliability or higher
• High efficiency 93% typ. at 12V
• MTBF > 3 million hours in
accordance with Bellcore TR-332
• Industry standard footprint
• Max case temperature +100°C
• 1,500 Vdc isolation voltage
• High power density, up to 55 W/in3.
ambient temperature operation in a wide range of
48 and 60 V dc (36-75 V dc) systems.
Similar to other Ericsson power modules, the
PKJ 4000 I series includes over and under-voltage
protection, over-temperature protection, soft-start
and is short circuit proof.
