New isolated DC-DC converters integrate essential external circuitry into a compact package, helping industrial and embedded system designers reduce board space, simplify layouts, and accelerate deployment across power-sensitive electronics applications.
A new range of isolated DC-DC converters from TDK Corporation targets engineers seeking to reduce power system complexity in industrial and embedded electronics. The latest modules combine multiple support functions inside a single package, eliminating the need for several external components traditionally required in distributed power architectures
The converters are available in 15W and 30W power ratings and are designed for applications including factory automation, communications infrastructure, test equipment, robotics, and industrial control systems. By integrating filtering and support circuitry directly into the module, the devices reduce PCB footprint and shorten development cycles for OEMs working under tight design constraints.
The key features are:
- 15W and 30W isolated DC-DC options
- Integrated external support circuitry
- Reduced PCB footprint and wiring complexity
- Faster system integration and qualification
- Designed for industrial and embedded electronics applications
The growing demand for compact, thermally efficient electronics is pushing power designers toward higher levels of integration. Conventional isolated DC-DC implementations often require additional external capacitors and filtering networks, increasing layout complexity and consuming valuable board space. The new approach packages these functions internally, enabling faster system integration and simplified qualification processes
The modules also target reliability-focused environments where minimising component count can improve long-term operational stability. Industrial electronics manufacturers are increasingly prioritising compact power architectures that support high efficiency, reduced thermal stress, and easier EMI management in dense electronic assemblies.
The converters are positioned for use across next-generation industrial and smart infrastructure platforms where space optimisation and power integrity are critical. Demand for such compact power solutions continues to rise alongside the expansion of edge computing, industrial IoT nodes, and embedded automation systems.
The launch reflects the broader industry shift toward integrated power modules that reduce engineering overhead while enabling scalable deployment across industrial electronics platforms.
