This card enables engineers to design high-efficiency, power-dense satellites for Low Earth Orbit (LEO) missions while achieving their safety and performance goals. The new VPX-3U-SP-PSC family of power supply cards provides up to 600 W total output power in a small package the size of an index card.<\/p>\n<p>Teledyne Micropac\u2019s COTS power cards, designed for 3U Open VPX systems, help overcome critical barriers to time-to-market. The VPX-3U-SP-PSC accelerates design and integration times with PMBus, VITA 62, VITA 48, and VITA 78 compliance. Teledyne Micropac\u2019s planned stocking of standard catalog items ensures shorter lead times.<\/p>\n<p>The first product in the VPX-3U-SP-PSC converts 28 Volts to 6 different power rails with a hardware-selectable or software-commanded range of voltages. The power rails are 3.3V, 5V, and 12V (main) and 3.3V and +\/- 12V (auxiliary). The PSC supports many PMBus commands. The cards will survive a TID of 30KRad and are immune to SEL of 37MeV-cm2\/mg. They comply with MIL-STD-704F, MIL-STD-461, and MIL-STD-1275E, and VITA 46.0, VITA 46.11, VITA 48.0, VITA 62.0, and VITA 78.0 standards.<\/p>\n<div class=\"widget-layout related-content-also-read-box my-3\">\n<h4 class=\"mb-0\">Also Read: What is a Payload Peak Power of a Satellite Bus?<\/h4>\n<\/div>\n<p><em>&#8220;Satellite designers face a unique set of challenges to optimize system efficiency and time-to-market,&#8221;<\/em> said <strong>Bill King, VP of Microelectronics at Teledyne Micropac<\/strong>.<em>&nbsp;&#8220;This 3U VPX offers flexibility with software or hardware output voltage control, helping engineers reach the highest levels of power supply performance.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Teledyne Micropac is showcasing innovations for the space community, including the VPX-3U-SP-PSC-28 VDC, at Satellite 2025 in Washington, D.C.
