VIPAC Arrays are a highly flexible system of DC input, power building-blocks that can be configured with as many as four user-definable outputs on a low-profile, coldplate chassis. Using Vicor’s PowerBench design tool, designers are able to specify VIPAC Arrays with Maxi, Mini and Micro product series H- or M-Grade converters with inputs of 24, 28 or 300 Vdc and outputs from 2 to 48 Vdc at power levels up to 500 watts per output. VIPAC Arrays are ideal for use in distributed and modular power systems where power density and reliable operation are critical. A current share option is available on single output models enabling them to be used in applications requiring high power / redundancy. Fully connectorized input and output terminations speed system installation and a versatile coldplate chassis simplifies thermal management.
Input Voltages:
- 24, 28 and 300 Vdc
Output Voltages:
- 0.5 – 48 Vdc
Output Power:
- Up to 650 W
Operating Temperature:
- -55 to 65°C (ambient M-Grade)
Dimensions:
- See mechanical drawing on data sheet
- Configurable single, dual, triple and quad outputs
- Current share option for high power / redundant operation
- Fully connectorized input & output for simplified hook up

- Shock: Method 516.5, Procedure I (40 g for 15-23 msand 75 g for 8-13 ms)
Maxi, Mini and Micro Data Sheets 24 Vdc (18 – 36 V) Input
28 Vdc ( 9 – 36 V) Input
300 Vdc (180 – 375 V) Input
- Component Power Solutions for Industrial High Voltage Applications
