DC/DC converters for ATE

Staff -- Test & Measurement World, 11/1/2005 2:00:00 AM

Vicor's "E grade" line of second-generation DC/DC converter modules and VIPAC arrays (which operate from –10°C to +100°C) cost approximately 15% less than "C grade" versions (which operate from –20°C to +100°C). Targeting ATE, communications, defense, and aerospace applications, the converters are available in four input ranges, seven output voltages, and three package sizes (quarter, half, and full brick).

Different base-plate and pin options are available. High-frequency ZCS/ZVS (zero current and zero voltage switching) provides for high power density, low noise, and high efficiency, which ranges from 80% to 90% depending on output voltage. Customers can configure the modules and VIPAC arrays using design tools available at the vendor's Web site.

Base price: $0.29 per watt in quantities of 1000. Vicor, www.vicorpower.com.
