Sunnyvale, CA — PCI-SYSTEMS Inc., a leading supplier of conduction cooled systems, today announced several VITA 62 compatible high output, extended temperature range Power Supplies, enabling accelerated development of rugged conduction cooled embedded systems.
The Isolated Rugged 3U VPX Power Supply PCI_800.107 works with 16 to 36 VDC (28VDC nominal) input voltage and isolates the input voltage ground from the output voltage ground. The Rugged 3U heavy duty Power supply is conduction cooled, uses multi-phase technology on all voltage rails and can provide up to 500 watts, 530W peak.

• 16 – 36V Continuous Input Voltage
• 1500V Isolation Between Input /Output
• Active Input EMI Filtering
• Transient look ahead/cut-off technology
• 6 Voltage output Rails
• Isolated 3.3V aux standby feature
• 500W Maximum Power
• 92% Typical Efficiency
• -55°C to 95°C Rail Operating Temperature
• VITA 62 3U Form Factor
• VITA 46.11 ready
• Patent pending FourRail thermal interface
• [SMART.PSU] Technology

• Digital On/Off control for low standby power
• Input / Output Voltage rail setting /adjustment
• Spread Spectrum Clocking of power supply stages
• Possibility of external synchronization
• Power supply sequencing and hot-swap control
• Power supply history logging and fault management
• Monitoring all input/output voltages, currents and power
• Current fold back control
• Automatic temperature drift compensation for all outputs
• Total-Elapsed-Time Recorder
• Efficiency calculations at any time
• Communication via SMB/I2C (PMB) for Vita 46.11 system management
• Collects data from temperature sensors for over temperature protection
• Precision compensation of all output voltages using integrated 5ppm voltage reference
In comparison to passive solutions, the use of active filtering reduces the volume of the common-mode choke, providing a low profile, surface mount device. Smaller size saves valuable board real estate and the reduced height enhances airflow in blade applications.
The power supply is designed to meet the intent of the following environmental specifications: (designed to meet intent of MIL-STD 810F)
• Humidity: 0 to 95% Humidity / Non-condensing
• Shock: 40G / 11mS
• Vibration: 14Grms / 20-2000Hz
• EMC: Designed to meet intent of MIL-STD 461D (RE, RS, CE, CS)
• Conformal coating applied, parts are undercoated with epoxy.
• MIL-STD-1275B Military Vehicles 28DC
• MIL-STD-461E EMI, Ground CS101 and CE102
• Integrated EMI Filter per MIL-STD-461
• Transient Protection per MIL-STD-704A through E
• MIL-STD-1275AT w/ Reverse Polarity protection
