Streamline Your Inventory with One Powerful, Compact Solution
Following the successful launch of our ultra-wide input DC-DC converters in SIP and DIP24 packages, MEAN WELL is proud to introduce the SKM/DKM W8 Series. Housed in an industry-standard 1” x 1” package, this new generation comes in four power ratings: 10W, 15W, 20W, and 30W.
Engineered for ultimate flexibility, the W8 series is the perfect fit for power equipment, electronic instrumentation, communication networks, industrial automation, and IoT ecosystems.
The Power of an 8:1 Input Range: Simplify Your Design
Traditionally, system designers had to juggle multiple 2:1 or 4:1 input converters to handle different system voltages (such as separate models for 9–18V, 18–36V, or 9–36V).
The SKM/DKM W8 Series changes the game with a massive 8:1 ultra-wide input range (9~75Vdc). A single unit can now effortlessly cover common nominal voltages of 12Vdc, 24Vdc, and 48Vdc. By standardizing on one converter, you can:
- Simplify component selection during the design phase.
- Drastically reduce inventory variety and overhead costs.
- Optimize system complexity and future-proof your hardware.
Drop-In Upgrades Made Simple
Upgrading your existing systems is entirely hassle-free. The new W8 series features a 100% pin-to-pin compatible layout with previous generations. You can drop the new ultra-wide converter directly onto your existing PCB layout without making a single modification to the board.
