BLACKSBURG, Va., March 13, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- VPT, Inc., a HEICO
company (NYSE:HEI.A) (NYSE: HEI), announces the release of the
first-ever configurable box solution featuring state-of-the-art GaN
technology: the SGRBX. Housing up to four award-winning SGRB DC-DC
converter slices within its framework, the SGRBX delivers up to
1600 watts of output power. Utilizing the SGRB's advanced fixed
frequency, reduced voltage switching topology, the SGRBX has
extremely low input and output noise. In addition, the SGRBX
features an integrated EMI filter, guaranteed TID performance to
100 krad(Si) including ELDRS, SEE performance to 85
MeV/mg/cm2, and high efficiency up to 96%. Multiple
SGRBX boxes can be paralleled to reach higher power levels
depending on program requirements.
A technology-leading solution for space-rated DC-DC power
conversion, the SGRB Series, including the SGRBX have been designed
to thrive in the most demanding commercial, scientific, and
military space environments. With GaN-based technology, its
radiation hardened design ensures long-term reliability, making it
the perfect choice for a wide range of space applications that
require high efficiency and low noise.
"The SGRBX was developed to give our customers access to
the same GaN-based technology found in our award-winning SGRB
Series, but for applications that require significantly higher
power levels." VPT's Engineering Manager, John Evans, said. "Leveraging VPT's extensive
space flight heritage and proven performance, the SGRBX ensures
high-reliability performance for the most demanding space
missions."
"We are pleased to announce the latest addition to our GaN-based
SGRB Series with the SGRBX. Designed with our customer's needs in
mind, this configurable solution allows users to parallel various
SGRB units, tailoring output voltages and power levels to meet
specific application requirements." VPT's Vice President of North
American Sales, Paul Andersen
stated. "It is the perfect choice for programs where high
efficiency and low noise are imperative, such as space payloads,
primary spacecraft bus, and space station applications. This marks
another step in VPT's ongoing commitment to innovation within the
GaN space. There will be more to come."
VPT is formally introducing the SGRBX at Satellite 2024
March 18th-21st in Washington, DC, featuring an SGRBX demo box
solution at VPT's booth, #2755. The SGRBX is available for
