VPT DC-DC Converter Provides Zero Cross Regulation Error

VPT Inc. announced that it is now offering a new dual output 15W dc-dc converter with no cross regulation error. Suited for use in commercial avionics, military avionics, and other critical reliability power systems, the new DVAB Series is a small size, extremely light weight, and able to withstand the full range of military specified temperatures. The DVAB Series eliminates cross regulation errors and offers tightly controlled line and load regulation errors through the use of two independent control loops.

"Our customers demand long term reliability with extremely tight performance metrics," said Michael J. Bosmann, Senior Vice President of VPT. "Through advances in power design, we’re answering these needs with new products such as this new DVAB Series, which eliminates the worry of cross regulation errors for power designers."

Specific features of this new power module include: dual outputs of ±5, ±12, and ±15V; wide input voltage range of 15 to 50V per MIL-STD-704; small size of 1.130 x 1.460" and light (24/28 grams of weight); fault tolerant magnetic feedback circuit; undervoltage lockout, with indefinite short circuit protection and current limit protections; full performance over -55 to +125°C military temperature range; high input transient voltage of 80V for 1 second per MIL-STD-704A; meets MIL-STD-461 Revisions C, D, E, and F EMC requirements when used with with VPT’s DVMH EMI filter; available flanged and non-flanged versions; available compliant to MIL-PRF-38534, Class H; and Defense Logistics Agency Standard Microcircuit Drawing (SMD) pending.
