Optimizing DC-DC converter stability: AC and transient analysis in simulations of source impedance effects
Learn how to optimize DC-DC converter stability through AC analysis in the frequency-domain and transient analysis in the time-domain
Case study: Electronic warfare suite for aircraft
A single 6U multiple power, high efficiency qualified to meet MIL-STD operational requirements
Customer’s challenge
Ensuring an aircraft’s survivability by integrating a wide-spectrum radar warning receiver and advanced self-protection jammers requires high power availability. The digital radio frequency, data acquisition and processing, and radar electronics are noise sensitive loads that require a solution with low EMI.
- Meet power needs of up to 1000W
- Fast time to market
- Meet MIL COTS standards and operational requirements for airborne platforms
The Vicor solution
The Vicor VITA 62 power supply provides superior density – 1000W in 6U form factor – and meets line and load regulation, output ripple and noise, and power sequencing to cater to the noise sensitive loads. Thermal seating planes are suitable for the advanced liquid cooling the customer required, and a VPX power supply would make it easier to replace or repair units.

Key benefits
1000W power system with low noise
Support a lower mean time to replace/repair
Optimal thermal management
Power delivery network
The 1000W Vicor VITA 62-compliant 6U power supply is based on low-noise Vicor DCM™ DC-DC converter technology, which provides superior density in a low-profile package. Employing high efficiency, two-sided conduction-cooled modules, the Vicor VITA 62 power supply considerably improves the overall thermal management while powering the downstream loads.
