An isolated DC-DC converter module is a self-contained power conversion building block that provides galvanic isolation between input and output while stepping a DC bus voltage up or down. Within the broader power-conversion taxonomy, isolated modules sit between discrete switching regulators (which require external magnetics, FETs, and control loops) and AC-DC front ends. They are commonly deployed in telecom shelves, industrial automation backplanes, and military/aerospace electronics where a single high-voltage DC bus feeds multiple isolated loads at different voltages. The Maxi family specifically targets applications in the 100 W to 200 W range with input voltages between 100 V and 425 V.
Key features of the V150C36C150BG include a wide 100 V to 200 V input range, 250 V input surge withstand capability, fixed 36 V output with 1% setpoint accuracy, and a 150 W continuous power rating. The module integrates Vicor's zero-current-switching (ZCS) topology, which minimizes switching losses and EMI by switching at the zero-current crossing of the resonant tank. Encapsulated construction provides shock and vibration resilience for harsh-environment deployment.
Typical applications for this part include 48 V telecom bus distribution, industrial process control power, railway and transit auxiliary power, and military C4IFR electronics. In a typical 48 V telecom shelf, the V150C36C150BG can accept a 100 V to 200 V front-end rectifier output and produce a 36 V intermediate bus that downstream POL converters step down to logic levels.
When designing with this module, ensure that adequate clearance and creepage distances are maintained between the high-voltage input pins and surrounding low-voltage traces, as the module provides full input-to-output isolation. Use Vicor-recommended heat-sinking or thermal management for operation near full load at elevated ambient temperatures.

典型應用
V150C36C150BG 適用於 6 應用s: Telecom Intermediate Bus Architecture, Industrial Process Control Power, Railway and Transit Auxiliary Power, Military and Aerospace C4ISR Electronics, High-Voltage Distributed Power Front-End, Test and Measurement Instrumentation.
Telecom Intermediate Bus Architecture
The V150C36C150BG is purpose-built for telecom systems that distribute power from a 100 V to 200 V front-end rectifier to downstream point-of-load converters. The 36 V output at 4.17 A provides a clean, isolated intermediate bus that downstream POL regulators can step down to the 12 V, 5 V, and sub-1 V rails required by modern processors, FPGAs, and ASICs in central-office and edge data-center equipment. The 250 V input surge withstand rating tolerates transient events on the high-voltage DC bus, while the encapsulated MODULE-7 brick resists the shock and vibration typical of telecom shelf environments.
推薦
Industrial Process Control Power
In industrial automation backplanes, the V150C36C150BG provides an isolated 36 V rail from a 100 V to 200 V plant DC bus to feed PLCs, motor drivers, and sensor conditioning circuits. Full galvanic isolation between input and output protects downstream low-voltage electronics from ground loops and fault transients on the high-voltage industrial bus, while the wide -20 C to +100 C operating range covers unconditioned cabinet environments. The encapsulated construction withstands the mechanical shock and vibration common to factory floors.
推薦
Railway and Transit Auxiliary Power
Railway onboard auxiliary power systems frequently use a 110 V DC bus derived from the train's main traction supply, and the V150C36C150BG is well-suited to stepping this bus down to a 36 V intermediate rail for lighting, communications, and signaling electronics. The wide 100 V to 200 V input range tolerates bus voltage variation under varying load and battery state-of-charge conditions, while the 250 V surge withstand handles sub-cycle transient events. The module's sealed, encapsulated construction provides the long-term reliability demanded by rolling-stock applications.
推薦
Military and Aerospace C4ISR Electronics
Military command, control, communications, computers, intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance (C4ISR) platforms often require isolated 28 V to 36 V rails from a 270 V DC or variable-frequency AC rectified bus, which the V150C36C150BG can deliver in a compact, ruggedized brick. The encapsulated package and wide operating temperature range make it appropriate for shelter-mounted and vehicle-borne electronics. For applications requiring formal Mil-Std-810 or -461 screening, the M-grade V150C36M150BG3 variant provides the required environmental and EMI qualification.
推薦
High-Voltage Distributed Power Front-End
In distributed power architectures (DPA), a single high-voltage DC bus (often 200 V to 400 V, derived from a power-factor-corrected AC front end) feeds multiple isolated brick converters located near their respective loads. The V150C36C150BG accepts this high-voltage bus and produces an isolated 36 V at 150 W per module, allowing the system designer to place conversion close to the load and minimize I*R losses on the high-current low-voltage rails. Multiple modules can be paralleled for higher-power shelves.
推薦
Test and Measurement Instrumentation
Bench-top and rack-mounted test equipment often requires multiple isolated voltage rails derived from a single AC-line-connected high-voltage DC bus, and the V150C36C150BG provides the isolated 36 V intermediate stage in such a power tree. The 1% output setpoint accuracy and low output noise of the ZCS topology are appropriate for powering sensitive analog signal-conditioning stages, while the encapsulated module eases safety-agency compliance for the overall instrument.

主要差異化特點
- Proprietary ZCS switching topology (對比Generic PWM-isolated brick converters)
- Integrated encapsulation (對比Open-frame discrete DC-DC designs)
- Wide 100 V-200 V input with 250 V surge (對比Narrow 48 V-only input converters)
- Drop-in compatible Maxi family variants (對比Proprietary form-factor modules from other vendors)
設計說明
The MODULE-7 brick dissipates approximately 15 W to 25 W as heat at full 150 W load (typical ZCS efficiency 86%-90%). The base plate is the primary thermal path; mount the module to an aluminum or copper heat spreader with thermal interface material, or to a PCB with sufficient copper pour. Vicor publishes a derating curve in the Maxi family datasheet that should be followed for ambient temperatures above 60 C.
Maintain the Vicor-recommended PCB layout pattern for the MODULE-7 footprint, including sufficient copper area on input and output pin pads to handle the 4.17 A continuous output current. Provide adequate clearance (typically 5 mm minimum) between the high-voltage input pins (+IN, -IN) and low-voltage output traces (+OUT, -OUT, TR) on a single-side PCB layout to preserve isolation and meet IEC 60950 / IEC 62368 safety spacing.
Do not parallel the V150C36C150BG with another module without using the PC (primary control) and SC (secondary control) pins for current sharing; Vicor Maxi modules require explicit current-share interconnection when paralleled, otherwise one module will hog load current and may exceed its SOA. Also note that the enable pin (EN) is referenced to -IN, not to chassis ground; this is a common source of miswiring.
Place input fuse and input EMI filter components within 50 mm of the +IN and -IN pins to minimize radiated and conducted emissions. The ZCS topology of the Maxi family has inherently low EMI, but external input filtering per Vicor's reference designs is required to meet conducted emissions standards such as FCC Part 15 / EN 55022 Class B in OEM end equipment.
When using the TR pin to adjust the output voltage, route the trim trace away from switching node traces and keep the trim resistor network physically close to the module to minimize noise pickup. A small filter capacitor (typically 1 nF to 10 nF) at the TR pin is recommended by Vicor when long trim traces are unavoidable.
