DC/DC Converter for Input Section Equipment

Objectives

The objective of the current activity is to develop a DC/DC converter to be integrated as part of MIER active equipment for reception.

Challenges

This activity is aimed to design a more competitive product in terms of performance, schedule, price and flexibility.

ITAR components will be avoided.

Plan

The project is divided into a design and BB manufacture and test phase.

  • Design phase from KO to MTR,
  • BB manufacture and Test: from MTR to FR.

The planning for this activity is as follows:

  • BDR: November 2011,
  • MTR: June 2012,
  • FR: April 2013.

Current Status

The project has been completed. The following activities have been completed:

  • Analysis of platform requirements for each of the bus voltages considered in the proposal,
  • Detailed design and analysis of 35V, 50V, 70V and 100V DC/DC converters,
  • 100 V and 50V DC/DC Converters Engineering Model (EM) Manufacturing, Integration and Test.
