With multiple isolation and output configurations, the 4112DC-2W Series provides an option for embedded systems, communication equipment and applications requiring electrical separation between circuits.

Selecting a DC/DC converter involves more than choosing the correct voltage and wattage.

The mounting format affects how the converter integrates into your PCB layout and manufacturing process.

SIP (Single In-line Package)

SIP converters use a single row of pins for through-hole PCB mounting.

Their narrow footprint makes them useful for compact electronic designs where available board space is limited.

The new 4114DC, 4112DC-3W and 4112DC-2W Series all feature SIP7 formats.

DIL converters use pins arranged in two parallel rows for through-hole PCB mounting.

These converters are available in different sizes and electrical configurations, providing options for a variety of isolated DC/DC applications.

The 4176DC-6W Series features a compact 5-pin DIL format with output ratings reaching 6W.

SMD converters mount directly onto the surface of a PCB rather than using conventional through-hole pins.

This makes them suitable for compatible surface-mount manufacturing processes.

The 4113DSC Series features an SMD14 design, offering engineers an option for surface-mount PCB assemblies.

The right format depends on your available PCB space, assembly process and electrical requirements.

How to Choose the Right Isolated DC/DC Converter

Choosing the right DC/DC converter starts with matching its specifications to your application’s requirements.

Here are five key factors to consider:

• Input Voltage: Confirm the converter supports your required input voltage range, including any fluctuations.
• Output Voltage & Wattage: Check that the converter provides the correct voltage and sufficient output capacity for your equipment.
• Isolation Voltage: Select an appropriate isolation rating based on your application’s electrical and safety requirements.
• Efficiency & Temperature: Consider conversion losses, operating temperatures and any derating requirements.
• Mounting Format: Choose between SIP, DIL or SMD based on your PCB layout and manufacturing process.

Reviewing these specifications early can help you avoid compatibility issues and unnecessary design changes.
