It has been some years since I did this type of work, so there may be some better devices available now, but DC-DC converters have been with us now for some time. A quick look through my catalogs indicates that there are several companies that advertise what you are looking for. Some of them are: Analog Devices, Astec, Calex, Integrated Circuits, Inc., Intronics, Pico Electronics, Polytron Devices, Power General, TDK, RO Associates, Volgen Electric, and probably Datel. You can get further information by looking in a recent copy of EEM (Electronic Engineers Master Catalog), or the Gold book (Electronic Design's Directory/Master Catalog published by Hayden).
