Powering high current loads

Mitigate the resistance and inductance penalties of high-current power distribution

Vicor senior Field Applications Engineer David Berry explores solutions for delivering thousands of amps to demanding loads. Evaluate traditional constraints like connector pin scaling and cable sizing. Then, learn how to bypass massive DCR losses by distributing 380V–400V lines at lower currents and utilizing high-efficiency (98%), non-regulated fixed-ratio multipliers directly at the card level to drop voltages at the point-of-load.
