VPT Adds New Modules To DC-DC Power Converter Series

VPT Inc. announced that several new modules are available for the DVFL, DVTR, and DVHF Series dc-dc power converter product lines. The new output voltages on these modules satisfy the reliability requirements and varying output voltage needs of the newest avionics and military electronics.

The new modules now available include: DVFL, single output, 120W – 6.3V, 7V, 8V, 9.5V, 18V, 28V; DVFL, dual output, 120W – 6.3V, 9.5V; DVTR, single output, 40w – 7V, 8V, 18V, 28V; DVTR, dual output, 40W – 8V, 18V; and DVHF, single output, 20W – 5.7V, 18V.

"We’ve optimized these modules to fit the needs today’s commercial and military avionics instrumentation such as navigation and guidance systems, flight data recorders, radar, and other demanding applications." said Michael J. Bosmann, Senior Vice President of Marketing and Sales. "We’re providing engineers with a breadth of options for output voltages within our most popular families of dc-dc power converters."

All three dc-dc power converter families are designed and manufactured in facilities qualified to ISO9001 and certified to MIL-PRF-38534 Class H and Class K and MIL-STD-883. Optimized for absolute reliability for the demanding environments of avionics and military applications, all of these new dc-dc converters feature: high power densities, extremely small sizes, and light weights for aircraft use; thick-film hybrid construction in fully hermetic packaging; full military required temperature ranges of -55 to +125°C; critical reliability performance; wide input voltage ranges; low output noise; fault tolerant design with patented technology – no optoisolators; and environmental screening that ensures rugged performance through extreme temperature cycling, shock, vibration, salt atmosphere, barometric conditions and moisture and solvent resistance.

The new modules are priced beginning at $299.00 for the DVHF, $390.00 for the DVTR, and $685.00 for the DVFL modules in OEM quantities.
