1.5W and 3W non-encapsulated dc-dc converters

TDK-Lambda has extended its CCG series of dc-dc converters further downward with the introduction of 3W and 1.5W models – in 2015 there were 30W CCG convertersreaching 15W the next year.

The two new types have a lot in common.

Firstly, they share a 15.7 x 10.4 x 11.5mm plastic case, with through-hole or surface-mount terminations (see photo).


“On the highly automated production line utilising X-ray inspection, no encapsulation is used in order to avoid quality risks associated with silicone potting compounds during the customer reflow soldering process,” said TDK-Lambda.


Although not encapsulated, they include a cover.

Both capacities have the same output options: 3.3, 5, 12, 15, ±12 or ±15 – with the dual output versions able to provide a single 24 or 30V respectively. Single output models have a trim terminal for -5% to +10% adjustment.

There are three (dc) input options: 4.5 to 18V, 9 to 36V or 18 to 76V.

  • CCG1R5 are the 1.5W types
  • CCG3 are the 3W types

All models have over-current protection and remote on-off.

Input to output isolation is 1,500Vdc.

Convection cooling is possible across -40 to +100°C ambients, with derating above 85°C.

Safety certification includes IEC/UL/CSA/EN 62368-1 with CE and UKCA marks to the Low Voltage and RoHS Directives.

Battery powered, process control, data communications, telecommunications, test and measurement applications are foreseen.
