MIL-COTS DCM™ - Isolated Regulated Type DC-DC Converter For Defence Applications

The DCM is an isolated, highly efficient, regulated DC-DC converter utilizing high frequency zero-voltage switching (ZVS) topology, operating from an unregulated, wide range input to generate an isolated output.

Modular DCM converters and downstream DC-DC products support efficient power distribution, providing superior power system performance and connectivity from a variety of unregulated power sources to the point of load. Leveraging the thermal and density benefits of Vicor’s ChiP packaging technology, the DCM ChiP module offers flexible thermal management options with very low top and bottom side thermal impedances while the DCM VIA module additionally provides integrated EMI filtering, tight output voltage regulation, and a secondary-referenced control interface while retaining the fundamental design benefits of the conventional brick architecture.
