Radiation-hardened power electronics devices for a wide range of space applications introduced by VPT

Nov. 12, 2021
DC-DC converters are for use in low-Earth orbit (LEO), medium-Earth orbit (MEO), geostationary orbit (GEO), deep-space missions, and launch vehicles.

BLACKSBURG, Va. – VPT Inc., a HEICO company in Blacksburg, Va., is introducing the SVLFL, SVLHF, SVLTR, and SVLSA series of 50 volt space-qualified DC-DC converters for space applications facing harsh radiation environments.

These power electronics devices offer total ionizing dose (TID) performance to 60 kilorads, and operate in temperatures from -55 to 125 degrees Celsius with no power derating.

These DC-DC converters are for use in low-Earth orbit (LEO), medium-Earth orbit (MEO), geostationary orbit (GEO), deep-space missions, and launch vehicle programs.

These power devices offer an input voltage range of 30 to 60 volts, with guaranteed performance through radiation-hardened semiconductor components, radiation lot acceptance testing (RLAT) of non-hardened components, and analysis.

The SVLFL (120 Watts), SVLTR (40 Watts), SVLHF (20 Watts), and SVLSA (6 Watts) will be qualified to MIL-PRF-38534 Class H and Class K pending U.S. Defense Logistics Agency approval.
