The need for scalable, and high-efficiency DC-DC conversion

The need to power more performance and functionality is ever-growing, and you need to reduce power system footprint and lower power losses. You’re asked to meet these challenges with compressed design time and fewer resources. You’ll need to overcome the limitations of traditional, ground-up, discrete, component-based power system designs and move to an advanced solution.

Reduce design time and achieve the highest density and efficiency

Modular power components enable engineers to reap powerful design benefits: predictable component and system functionality and reliability, fast design cycles, and easy system configurability, re-configurability and scaling – while achieving system operating efficiency, power density and economy beyond that of the best alternative solutions. Using a combination of components allow the engineer to design a complete power system that solves difficult space and efficiency challenges and virtually eliminates the possibility of last-minute surprises and delays that so often occur with conventional or custom design methodologies.

Within the extensive Vicor portfolio of proven power components, a power delivery network of DCM DC-DC converters used independently or with downstream point-of-load ZVS buck regulators and ZVS buck-boost regulators support efficient power delivery, providing superior power system performance and connectivity from a variety of unregulated power sources to the point of load.
