Advanced Energy expands power converter lineup with high-efficiency modules

DENVER - Advanced Energy Industries, Inc. (NASDAQ:AEIS), a $6.27 billion market cap power solutions provider that has delivered an impressive 76% return over the past six months, has introduced two new quarter brick modules to its non-isolated bus converter family designed for 48 V to 12 V power conversion applications, according to a press release statement. InvestingPro data shows the company maintains strong financial health with a current ratio of 4.09, indicating robust operational efficiency.

The Artesyn® NDQ1300 (1300 W) and NDQ1600 (1600 W) quarter-brick modules operate with peak efficiencies up to 98%, targeting high-end information and communication technology equipment including AI servers, compute and networking systems, as well as industrial applications such as robotics and test equipment.

Both modules feature a flat efficiency curve for optimal power conversion across various loads, an integrated PMBus interface for digital control and monitoring, and current-share capabilities enabling parallel connection of multiple units for higher load current or redundancy.

"Today’s power system designers are focusing on efficiency and form factor as they look to deliver the low loss power conversion essential to emerging AI and next-generation industrial applications," said Joe Voyles, Advanced Energy’s vice president of Industrial Power Conversion, System Power.

The new products utilize a transformer-based topology that provides resilience to transient loads and simplifies inrush current control on start-up. They also incorporate an advanced baseplate for improved thermal management and heatsink integration.

The modules convert 48 V input into a fully-regulated 12 V output suitable for non-isolated, low-voltage, high-current power stages as well as PCIE slots and memory devices.
