Even without any particular knowledge of the market the average man – or woman – on the street wouldn’t be surprised to hear that the unmanned systems market is being forecast to grow in the coming years.
The top 3 reasons you should visit Vicor at the AUVSI tradeshow in Las Vegas, Nevada from August 6 through August 9:
I was asked to create a presentation for a technical webinar for those who design power supplies for harsh environments, particularly in the defense and aerospace industry.
Vicor’s Kai Johnstad recently sat down with John McHale, editor of Military Embedded magazine, to discuss trends in the defense power market. His observations, along with those of other power players, have just been published online in the feature article: Military Embedded Systems: Power electronics designs trending smaller and more efficient.
Aegis Power Systems, a Vicor Custom Design Center has released a new VME550 Series of rugged, reliable power supplies.
Vicor’s Filtered Input Attenuator Modules (FIAMs) are designed for power systems engineers needing front-end EMC filtering and transient protection without incurring excessive costs, delay or demands on space. The FIAM family has just been extended for defense applications by the addition of the MIL-COTS 28Vin M-FIAM7B. This new device, like the existing FIAMs, provides EMC filtering, transient protection and inrush current limiting, to meet relevant MIL Standards. The M-FIAM7B is compatible with 28 VDC V•I Chip and VI BRICK modules. The M-FIAM7B, which uses active clamping, is qualified to MIL-STD-1275A/B/D for transient spike and...
Military aircraft and ships typically use an isolated 270 VDC power distribution system, specified to MIL-STD-740E/F. However the equipment it supplies, such as radar, processors, radio, satellite and GPS all requires lower regulated or unregulated DC voltages. Vicor’s new high-efficiency, non-regulated MIL-COTS BCM bus converter MBCM270F450M270A00 operates from 270 VDC power and is fully MIL-STD-740E/F compliant. It provides a nominal 45 VDC output with better than 96% efficiency and over 800 W/in³ power density. Minimising equipment size and weight, while maintaining power capacity, is always a primary concern within mobile military applications, whether air,...
Just introduced is a high-efficiency, non-regulated MIL-COTS BCM™ bus converter to complete a family of V•I Chip™ power components for airborne, naval and land-based applications. Operating from the typical 270VDC (230-330V) MIL-STD-704E/F power rail, with around ¼ inch low profile and ½ ounce weight. Read press release
Vicor’s new MIL-COTS VI Brick Filter provides a transient and EMI filtering DC front end to protect MIL-COTS power conversion systems, which complies with stringent military standards. It is available either as a stand-alone filter, or as an integrated Filter/PRM Regulator Module. Substantially smaller than competing products with similar power ratings, both versions of the MIL-COTS VI Brick Filter provide compliance with MIL-STD-1275A/B/D for transients, and MIL-STD-461E/F for EMI conducted emission and conducted susceptibility. The stand-alone Filter also complies with MIL-STD-704A/E/F for input transients, while the Filter/PRM Module complies with MIL-STD-704A-F. Both versions of...
