These ORing modules are designed to replace traditional diodes in applications that require ORing functionality for power supply redundancy or parallel operation. The i1R series uses MOSFET-based circuitry to provide a superior level of performance while reducing reverse current transients.
Applications for the i1R modules include communications, test and measurement equipment, plus harsh environment industrial and robotics requiring a high degree of shock and vibration. While the i1R series was designed to complement other TDK-Lambda solutions, including the i7A and i7C non-isolated converters, GQA and HQA industrial isolated DC-DC converters for high-shock and vibration environments, and RGF differential mode filter modules, its flexible architecture allows it to be deployed alongside other power solutions.
The i1R series has a fast 500 ns (typ) turn-off response, blocking reverse current transients during fault conditions for better protection. The product has a typical low on-resistance of 2.5 and 1.5 mΩ, reducing power losses and waste heat, simplifying the thermal design. The product’s shielded metal package size is a compact 1 x 1” (26.3 x 26.3 mm), saving valuable board space and supporting efficient cooling. For added convenience and simplicity, the series operates without the need for any external components.
