Configurable supplies pass military tests
Lambda's Vega and Vega-Lite series of configurable power supplies have achieved military-approved performance levels.
Compact supply boasts 900W output
Vega Lite is a new cost effective configurable power supply offering up to 900W output power and fast delivery.
The new modules occupy a single slot on the Vega chassis.
They offer a choice of fixed (F) or tracking (T) overvoltage protection and can be fitted with Faston or screw terminal output connectors.
The modules also offer designers a choice of either resistance programming of the output, between 0 and 32kohm, or voltage programming of the output, between 0 and 5V.
Both programming types are available in four variants: inhibit with fixed current limit; inhibit with program current limit (0-5V); enable with fixed current limit; and enable with program current limit (0-5V).
At 0.35W/cm3, Vega has an unrivalled power density, has no minimum load requirement, low ripple of 1% and one to ten fixed or adjustable outputs that give designers a choice of output voltages up to 62V.
Vega's inherent flexibility lies in its high degree of configurability.
As well as the wide choice of output modules there are a large number of customer options.
For cooling there is a choice of reverse air and quiet fan in addition to the standard forward air-cooling.
The units can also be specified without a fan for customer cooling.
Input connection can be made via a choice of Faston, screw or IEC320 connectors, and filters rated for leakage currents from 1.5mA to 50uA are available.
Secondary analogue options include module inhibit, module good signal and current sharing for redundancy.
The innovative Vega range of configurable power supplies is available in 450 and 650W ratings.
Input voltage range is from 90 to 264V AC and 130 to 330V DC making it suitable for use worldwide.
It is overvoltage and overcurrent protected, and complies with global safety approvals. Request a free brochure from TDK-Lambda UK ...
