Which DC/DC Converter Is Right for Your Application?
Tell us the input voltage, output voltage, power and key operating conditions of your application. Our selection assistant will show you suitable DC/DC converters and possible alternatives. If no existing product meets all your requirements, we will assess whether a modification or custom development is the right solution.
Find the right product instead of comparing datasheets
DC/DC converters differ in more than just input and output voltage. Power, isolation, control characteristics, temperature range, installation space and mechanical loads also determine whether a converter will operate reliably in your application.
Our selection process guides you step by step through the key requirements and narrows down suitable products and product families.
Buck, buck-boost or galvanically isolated?

DC/DC Buck Converters
A buck converter is suitable when the input voltage remains higher than the required output voltage across the entire operating range.
DC/DC buck-boost converters
A buck-boost converter stabilises the output voltage even when the input voltage is temporarily below or above the required output voltage.
Isolated DC/DC converters
A galvanically isolated DC/DC converter electrically isolates the input and output from each other. This may be required for different reference potentials, ground loops or specific safety requirements.
THT PCB-mount converters
THT DC/DC converters are mounted directly on a PCB and are suitable for compact, galvanically isolated auxiliary power supplies with low to medium power requirements.
How do I find the right DC/DC converter?
To select the right DC/DC converter, you need at least the input voltage range, output voltage, power requirements and whether galvanic isolation is required. Load peaks, temperature, installation space and mechanical loads may also be important.

What happens if multiple converters are suitable?
That is normal. Differences in power, design, isolation, input voltage and additional features help narrow down the selection, as does the available budget. Depending on the application, it usually becomes clear whether the focus is on compact installation space or high efficiency.
Do I need to know all the technical specifications already?
No. Any values you are unsure about can be marked accordingly. Our team will review any open points with you.
Can I provide a datasheet or requirements specification?
Yes. Circuit diagrams, requirements specifications, load data and existing power supply specifications help us with the technical assessment.
