How do I choose between DC-DC and AC-DC power products?

DC-DC converters are used when you have a DC voltage source (such as a battery or another power supply) and need to convert it to a different DC voltage level. They are ideal for distributed power systems, battery-powered devices, and on-board voltage conversion. AC-DC power modules are used when your input is AC mains voltage and you need to convert it to DC for your equipment. P-Duke offers both types with various input/output combinations to meet your specific requirements.

Contact our FAE team to discuss your input power source and output requirements for guidance on selecting the appropriate power product type.

What is the typical efficiency of P-Duke converters?

P-Duke converters offer high efficiency across their product range. DC-DC converters typically achieve 87-92% efficiency depending on the series and operating conditions. AC-DC power modules achieve 85-90% efficiency. The high efficiency minimizes heat generation, allowing operation in high ambient temperatures and reducing cooling requirements. P-Duke uses synchronous rectification and optimized magnetic designs to achieve these efficiency levels while maintaining high reliability.

For thermally constrained applications or battery-powered systems, prioritize high-efficiency P-Duke series to minimize power loss and heat generation.
