The BPWX Power Supply Module is the ideal low EMI soluon
for worldwide deployment of control applicaons in wireless/
M2M, lighng, sensing, smart building and power distribuon,
especially where long range wireless operaon or extended tem-
perature is required.
A patented design incorporang a custom integrated circuit into a
small package (2.45 in3 [40.1 cm3]) the BIAS Module provides an
immediate “drop-in” soluon, requiring no addional external
components.

Bias Power AC/DC power supplies are available with two
dierent types of outputs to t your applicaons…
The characteriscs of the main (Vo) and auxiliary (Vr) outputs
are dierent and each has applicaon-specic benets which
can provide high value to the system designer:
Vo is a voltage-regulated output which has a constant power
mode instead of a convenonal current limit. This output is
best suited as a source for isolated DC ulity power, which may
be used directly or post-regulated with either a linear regulator
or a DC/DC converter. Vo is self protecng, cannot be over-
loaded and can be shorted indenitely. So unlike design-your-
own, or parally complete modules where signicant design
margin is required to stay far away from current limit, there is
no need to oversize a Bias Power supply. The graceful transi-
on from voltage regulaon to constant power along with the
wide range of product rangs allows the designer to select a
supply ghtly matched to the design load.
Vr is also a voltage-regulated output and is thermally protected
from overload. It has very low output ripple capable of driving
elements which require a low-noise, ghtly-regulated supply.
In addion, Vr is supplied internally by Vo. This means that any
capacitance added to Vo can increase the hold-up me of Vr as
well.
*Note: maximum currents specied for constant voltage range
only. See V-I curve on page 2 for Vo in constant power range.
