A new modular power supply delivers up to 1500 W in a slim 1U form with whisper-low 36 dBA noise, offering 13 configurable outputs, medical-grade isolation, and 94% efficiency for precision systems that demand both power and silence.
TDK’s latest addition to its modular power lineup pushes the limits of compact, quiet, and configurable performance. The new 1U-high, 13-output MU6 modular power supply packs up to 1500 watts into a 41 mm profile—engineered for medical, audio, industrial, and lab systems where both low noise and reliability are mission-critical.
It has an intelligent fan control system. Using a microcontroller-based algorithm, it dynamically monitors the temperature of both the main converter and each secondary output module, adjusting fan speed precisely to keep noise as low as 36 dBA even under 80% load. For hospitals, dental clinics, and professional audio setups, that means quieter environments and less operator fatigue.
The key specifications are:
- Delivers 1200 W (85–264 Vac) and up to 1500 W (180–264 Vac) input range
- Supports up to 13 fully isolated outputs, configurable from 3.3 V to 105.6 Vdc
- Each module includes remote sense and “output good” signal
- Efficiency up to 94% for lower heat and higher reliability
- Operates reliably from -20 °C to +70 °C
- 4000 Vac input-to-output isolation (2× MoPP) for medical safety
- Leakage current under 300 µA, compliant with BF medical device standards
Optional features include a 5 V/2 A or 12 V/1 A standby voltage for auxiliary power, PMBus communication for real-time monitoring and control, and fan fail and AC fail alerts for enhanced reliability. The supply also inhibits and enables control across all outputs, along with current sharing capability for parallel operation, ensuring flexible integration into complex power systems.
The MU6 series carries a seven-year warranty and certifications to IEC/EN 60601-1 and 62368-1 standards, plus compliance with CE, UKCA, EMC, and RoHS directives. It also meets EN 55011-B and EN 55032-B for radiated and conducted emissions. By merging high density, near-silent operation, and modular flexibility, this new power platform redefines what 1U supplies can deliver—quietly powering the next generation of medical and industrial innovation.
