BLACKSBURG, Va., Nov. 30, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- VPT, Inc.
(VPT®), a HEICO company (NYSE:HEI.A) (NYSE:HEI), today
announced that its SVR Series isolated DC-DC converters now offer
an 18 to 40 V input range. The radiation-hardened SVR series of
DC-DC converters is available in single and dual outputs and has
been characterized to Total Ionizing Dose (TID) to 100 krad(Si),
including Enhanced Low Dose Rate Sensitivity (ELDRS), and Single
Event Effects (SEE) performance to 85 MeV-cm2/mg.
All SVR Series isolated DC-DC converters from VPT feature a wide
input voltage range of 18 to 40, with a 50 V transient operation.
The SVR Series isolated converters are highly efficient and utilize
VPT's proprietary radiation immune magnetic feedback technology.
Features of the series include input undervoltage lockout, output
soft start, current limit and short circuit protection.
Additionally, the SVR Series is rated for full power operation up
to 125° C.
"The demands of the space market continue to expand and change,"
stated Monty Pyle, Vice President of
Sales and Marketing for VPT. "Now more customers are seeking
rad-hard solutions that require up to 40 V input, without the need
to meet the stringent Aerospace TOR and MIL-HBK-1547 derating
requirements. Since our SVR Series is MIL-PRF-38534 Class H and
Class K qualified and available on DLA Standard Microcircuit
Drawings (SMDs), the products offer the ideal efficiency and
reliability for such customers." Pyle explained that although the
SVR Series isolated converters have always had 18 to 40 V range
operation, the products were initially specified at 37.5 volts to
support the Aerospace TOR and MIL-HBK-1547 requirements, for which
the SVR Series was originally developed.
The first standard commercially available products from VPT were
designed specifically for the harsh environment of space. Now with
nearly 25 years of proven space heritage, VPT offers high
reliability and high efficiency solutions to organizations around
the world in industries which require reliable operation of each
component for overall mission success.
