在过去的20年中，采购现成的DC/DC转换器模块已成为一种习惯做法。这适用于所有电子工业，包括工业自动化，交通运输工程，电信，数据技术，测量技术，医疗电子等。即使对非常庞大的生产企业来说，研发自己的DC/DC转换器也不是一件值得的事，特别是在需要通过严格的国际标准的今天。在RECOM，一谈到电源转换器，我们总会特别留意客户的需求，并于过去的十年里在产品的研发上投资了数百万用以建立自己的实验室，扩展世界范围的销售活动。这就意味着我们接近客户在全球各地的生产设施，可提供当今市场上最可靠的产品，一流的技术支持和富有竞争力的价格。

RECOM集团在奥地利格蒙登特劳恩湖建造了一座类似校园的总部，总占地三千平方米，为了能在电源发展上全力以赴。除了现代的物流中心及崭新的管理设施，RECOM專注於最先進的EMC實驗室，以擴展R&D、測試、研究和質量保證；这将大大地提升公司的高频率范围能力以服务奥地利和德国南部。由罗德史瓦兹公司(Rohde & Schwarz)提供的3米法半电波暗室（3m-SAC）可以实现30MHz至3GHz的频率范围测量，完全符合CISPR22的规范。此SAC设有试件自动测量过程，直径长达一米，并且计算器控制的转台和近场探头可以自动测定每个试件的关键干扰源。

除此之外，RECOM实验室已符合EN 61000-4-x及EN 61000-3-2的测量规范，尤其后者在LED驱动器中扮演着极重要之角色。内部的GTEM室可以检查试件对辐射抗扰的行为。RECOM已在RECOM校园内另外设置房间以及三座公寓给学生及研究员使用，促进与大专院校及其他高级学术机构之间的密切合作。

RECOM客户和伙伴也可以在RECOM高级配备的实验室中测试他们自己的原型。RECOM与电源领域中的其他公司密切合作是为了能够发展出创新、长期的横跨慕尼黑、林茨及格拉茨的电源集群。

Over the past 20 years, it has become common practice to purchase DC/DC converters as a finished module. This applies to all segments of the electronics industry, including industrial automation, transportation engineering, telecommunications, data technology, measurement technology, and medical electronics. Even for very large production runs, it’s rarely worthwhile for a company to develop their own DC/DC converter, particularly in view of the stringent international standards that apply nowadays. At RECOM, when it comes to power conversion, we’ve always been very attentive to our customers’ needs and wishes, and have invested millions over the past decade in product development, growing our quality assurance lab, and expanding the scope of our worldwide distribution activities.This means we’re close by to our customers’ production facilities around the globe, offering the most reliable products available on today’s market ... with top-notch support – and, of course, competitive prices.

The RECOM group in Gmunden, Austria, has built a campus-like headquarters site with a total of three thousand square metres of floor space in a bid to intensify the company’s commitment to the electrical power supply. In addition to a modern logistics centre and new management facilities, RECOM has placed special focus on its labs, extending the R&D, testing, investigation and quality assurance labs by a state-of-the-art EMC lab; this comes as a substantial boost to the company’s capabilities in the high-frequency range serving Austria and southern Germany. The 3m-SAC (semi-anechoic chamber) equipped by Rohde & Schwarz will see standard-compliant measurements performed at a frequency range of 30 MHz to 3 GHz according to CISPR22. The SAC features an automated measurement procedure on test pieces at up to one metre in diameter, and the computer-controlled turntable and near-field probes allow fully automatic determination of critical interference sources in each test piece.

Apart from that, the laboratory is equipped for measurements according to EN 61000-4-x and EN 61000-3-2, the latter playing an especially important role in LED drivers. The in-house GTEM cell can also examine the test piece’s behaviour for radiated immunity. RECOM has set aside separate rooms at the RECOM campus as well as three studio flats for visiting students and researchers to facilitate closer cooperation with universities, colleges and other higher-level academic institutions.

RECOM customers and partners can also use the company’s highly equipped labs to test their own prototypes. Close cooperation with other companies in the electrical power supply sector is set to develop into an innovative electrical power supply cluster between Munich, Linz and Graz in the long term.
