BLACKSBURG, Va. – VPT Inc. in Blacksburg, Va., is introducing the radiation-hardened SGRBX gallium nitride (GaN)-based DC-DC converter for space power control and conditioning applications that require high efficiency and low noise.
Housing as many as four SGRB DC-DC converter slices, the SGRBX delivers as much as 1600 Watts of output power. Using the SGRB's advanced fixed frequency and reduced voltage switching topology, the SGRBX has extremely low input and output noise.
In addition, the radiation-hardened SGRBX features an integrated EMI filter, guaranteed total ionizing dose (TID) performance to 100 kilorads including ELDRS, SEE performance to 85 MeV/mg/cm2, and efficiency as high as 96 percent.
Systems designers can use several SGRBX boxes in parallel to reach higher power levels depending on program requirements. The SGRBX is designed for demanding commercial, scientific, and military space environments.
