XP Power extends family of COTS DC-DC converters aimed at military vehicle and avionic applications.
XP Power has introduced the MTC35 and MTC50 series of commercial off the shelf (COTS) 35 and 50 W DC-DC converters aimed at a broad range of military vehicle and avionics applications. These robust encapsulated board mounted modules accommodate a wide input range from 10 to 40 VDC and can handle transients up to 50 VDC for 100 ms. Single output modules are available with 3,3, 5, 12, 15 or 28 VDC outputs and can be adjusted between -20 and +10% via an external trim pin.
When used in conjunction with XP Power’s DSF, FSO or MTF series of standard EMI filter modules, the MTC series comply with MIL-STD 1275A/B/C/D and MIL-STD 704A for surges and transients, and MIL-STD 461E/F for conducted emissions and susceptibility. The units meet the environmental MIL-STD 810F specification that covers shock, vibration, humidity, temperature, salt spray and altitude.
With base plate cooling, the converters are suitable for use across a wide range of operating temperatures from –40 to 100°C. Unit start up is possible from as low as –55°C. Control and signal pins provide the ability to inhibit output, provide thermal warning and converter shutdown and synchronise converter frequency to an external source in the 400-500 kHz range. Remote sense compensates for up to a 0,5 VDC drop on the output.
XP Power provides a comprehensive range of COTS DC-DC converters from 5-150 W.
