BLACKSBURG, Va., June 6, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- VPT, Inc.
(VPT®), a HEICO company (NYSE:HEI.A) (NYSE:HEI), today
released its dual output VXR Series DC-DC converters to augment its
offering of advanced high-reliability COTS products. Optimized for
a broad range of programs from military ground vehicles to
commercial and military aircraft, the VXR Series products feature
wide input voltage ranges and advanced packaging technology for
superior operation in harsh environments. The VXR Series now
includes both single and dual output offerings from 7 Watts to 100
Watts as well as 2 to 20 Amp EMI filters.

The VXR Series dual output DC-DC converters feature two
independently controlled and isolated outputs which provide zero
cross-regulation. Each output can be configured as positive,
negative or stacked allowing for a broad range of output voltage
configurations. Additionally, the output voltages can be
ordered as unmatched pairs as a standard product option providing a
vast range of flexibility within an overall power system
design.
"The entire VXR Series of products has a robust mechanical
design that is highly efficient over a wide input voltage range
including significant input transient capability," said
Jeremy Ferrell, VPT's Manager of
Standard Product Engineering. "Also, the proprietary two-stage
topology provides incredibly fast transient response time without
the use of optoisolators."
In addition to high efficiency and high reliability, the VXR
Series features its proprietary V-SHIELD® advanced
packaging technology. V-SHIELD® is an
integral epoxy encapsulation which incorporates EMI shielding and
dual-sided thermal conduction. It is highly resistant to chemical,
solvent and salt environments and is fully compatible with
high-volume manufacturing processes including wave solder, cleaning
solvents, high-pressure sprays and aqueous wash.
An additional update to the VXR Series family of DC-DC
converters is the capability of the single output converters to now
meet the 100 Volt surge requirement of MIL-STD-1275 as well as DO-160. The 100 Volt surge
operation is achieved without adding external components to the
converters.
"Programs requiring high reliability and cutting edge
performance while potentially operating in harsh, taxing
environments are prime candidates for the efficiency and durability
of the VXR Series of DC-DC converters and EMI filters," said
Monty Pyle, VP of Sales and
Marketing. "The extension of this product family illustrates our
commitment to innovation based on proven design heritage."
The VXR Series single and dual output DC-DC converters and VXR
Series EMI filters are available for immediate sale. Individual
unit prices begin at $100 (USD) for
volume quantities. Additional information on the VXR Series and
specific product datasheets can be found within VPT's COTS product
