In the fast-paced, data-driven world of today, the demand for efficient and reliable power conversion solutions in data centers is more critical than ever. Richtek has risen to the challenge with its newly released 17 V buck converter series RTQ2806A/12 A/20 A which offers exceptional performance and sustainability. Here’s how Richtek is helping data centers run more sustainably:
1. Exceptional Efficiency
Richtek's new series delivers up to 92% efficiency, even under 70% full load conditions. Available in three output current options (6 A, 12 A, and 20 A), these converters outperform other pin-compatible products by 2% to 2.5% in efficiency. This improvement is vital in high-current, high-power density applications, significantly reducing overall thermal output and contributing to a greener data center environment.
2. Optimized Thermal Performance
Thermal management is crucial in maintaining the longevity and stability of data center components. The RTQ2806A/12A/20A series features a thermally enhanced package, which lowers the junction temperature by 15°C compared to similar products. This substantial reduction in temperature not only extends the lifespan of the components but also ensures reliable performance under demanding conditions, making it ideal for high power density applications in data centers.
3. Fast Transient Response
Maintaining stable output voltage is essential for the smooth operation of servers and network equipment. Richtek's new series excels in this area with its fast load transient response. It reduces Vpp output voltage variation by 28% under the same Bill of Materials (BOM) conditions, achieving stable output with only Multi-Layer Ceramic Capacitors (MLCC). This capability ensures that data centers can handle rapid changes in load without compromising performance.
Richtek's 17 V buck converter series outperforms other products with similar functionalities, providing strong assurance for the sustainability of data centers.
