Product Description
The PFC MicroS, PFC Micro and PFC Mini are
members of the low profile, high-density LoPAC
series of power factor corrected AC-DC power
supplies. Available as a one-, two- or three-slot
package, respectively, each LoPAC slot can be
configured with standard Vicor DC-DC converter
modules enabling up to six user-specifiable
isolated outputs in a package only 1.72in
[43,6mm] high with a power density of 11W/in3.
For maximum versatility and flexibility, the LoPAC
can be configured with VI-26x (full-brick), VI-J6x
(half-brick) or Maxi, Mini, Micro V375 Series
full-, half- and quarter-brick modules. These
modules cover the entire range of outputs from
1 to 100VDC and 25 to 600W. The optimum
solution can be factory configured based on your
exact voltage and power requirements.
For conducted EMI, certain configurations meet
EN55022 and FCC Part 15 Class A (consult
factory). Harmonic current limits per EN61000-3-2
and Surge Immunity per EN61000-4-5 in addition
to a wide variety of safety agency approvals
further enhance the LoPAC flexibility.

DC Output Selections
The versatility of the LoPAC series is due in large part to the wide
array of Vicor modules available to be configured into the different
package formats. Slots can be populated with VI-200™, VI-J00™ or
Maxi, Mini, Micro modules in full-, half- or quarter-brick sizes. The
Vicor full VI-26x, VI-J6x and V375 standard product matrices are
available to choose from.
In addition, the full range of non-standard voltages and powers
from 1 to 100VDC and 10 to 600W is also available for inclusion. The
table below is just a sampling of some of the most popular standard
outputs that can be configured into LoPAC slots.
LoPAC Slot Configurations
The DC-DC converter modules are used to populate each LoPAC
converter slot. Each slot can be configured in different ways
depending on module sizes and power limitations.
The following table summarizes the available slot configurations for
each of the three LoPAC packages.
Autosense Feature
[c]
This feature is implemented in all converter slots in the LoPAC
family. If remote-sense connections are not needed or are
inadvertently not made, no local-sense connections are necessary.
Simply connect the output(s) to the load and the converter(s) will
automatically operate in the local-sense mode. If remote-sense
connections are made, the unit will operate in remote-sense mode.
[c] Applies to converter slots utilizing Maxi or Mini size converters.
