XP Power announces its JCA series of miniature, board-mounted low power DC/DC converters. Measuring just 1 x 0.8 x 0.4 inches (25.4 x 20.3 x 10.0 mm), the device's shielded metal package is 0.25 inches (6.4 mm) shorter than the 1.25 inch (31.8 mm) industry norm. Using the customary 24-pin DIP layout, the units occupy 20% less printed circuit board area than traditional products. This allows designers to reduce the size of new developments or add in more features, while maintaining the industry standard pin-out makes the converter an ideal drop-in replacement for existing designs.
