Dual-output 5W converter designed for rugged reliability

Created to power electronics in unmanned vehicles, ships, armored ground vehicles, and other rugged systems, the VPT5-2800D dual-output DC-DC converter from VPT, a HEICO company, delivers up to 5 watts from a small footprint of approximately one square inch, meets several military standards, and features a six-sided metal package. "At VPT, we design for extreme reliability from the start," said Monty Pyle, Vice President of Sales and Marketing at VPT. "Like all of our products, the new VPT5 dual output step-down converter satisfies rigorous design standards that include MIL-STD-704 input voltage requirements, full operation over an extended temperature range, and all-sided metal packaging to provide excellent EMI shielding. This product is on the shelf and ready to provide smooth power through harsh environments." Available with dual outputs of ±5V, ±12V and ±15V, the 5W device has an input voltage range from 15 to 50 volts per MIL-STD-704 and MIL-STD-1275, an input transient voltage of 80 volts for 1 sec per MIL-STD-704A, and can operate from -55°C to +100°C. Additional features include a magnetic feedback circuit with no optoisolators, input undervoltage lockout, output soft start, short circuit protection, and current limit protection. Modules are in stock now with pricing beginning at US $100.00 in OEM quantities. VPT
