Point of load DC-DC converter power electronics for military and avionics applications introduced by VPT

BLACKSBURG, Va., 10 Nov. 2010. VPT Inc. in Blacksburg, Va., is introducing the DVPL0503S point of load (POL) DC-DC converter power electronics device for distributed power applications in avionics, military, and space systems.

The 3-amp DVPL DC-DC POL converter is a non-isolated, synchronous, buck regulated converter that steps down the voltage at the point of end use.

The DVPL0503S is designed to MIL-PRF-38534; has a 3-amp (10-Watt) power output; adjustable output voltage from 0.8 to 3.4 volts; operates from 5 volts nominal input; as much as 92 percent efficiency; measures 0.7 by 0.7 by 0.27 inches; operates in the full military and avionics temperature range of -55 to 125 degrees Celsius; has a fault-tolerant design with no optoisolators; output inhibit control ; low output noise ; over current and short circuit protection; meets MIL-STD-461C and MIL-STD-461D EMC requirements when used with VPT DC-DC converters and EMI filters; and is screened to MIL-PRF-38534 Class H.
