HIGH RELIABILITY
COTS DC-DC CONVERTERS
DESCRIPTION
The VPT100 series of isolated COTS DC-DC
converters is a cost effective solution for many
demanding high reliability applications. A wide input
voltage range accommodates nominal 28V inputs
including avionics, mobile, ground systems, and
other applications. A high efficiency design reduces
input power requirements and eases thermal
management. Low input and output ripple, fixed
operating frequency, and companion EMI filters
simplify system design and compliance. A proven
design heritage, no optoisolators and a rugged all-
metal package ensure long term reliability.
The VPT100 series is intended for harsh
environments including severe vibration, shock and
temperature cycling. Testing is to JESD22, MIL-STD-
810, and MIL-STD-883.
These converters are designed and manufactured in
the USA in a facility certified to ISO9001, J-STD-001
and IPC-A-610.
This product may incorporate one or more of the
following U.S. patents:

OUTPUT VOLTAGE TRIM
The output voltage can be trimmed down by connecting a resistor between the TRIM pin and the +V OUT pin,
or can be trimmed up by connecting a resistor between the TRIM pin and the OUT COM pin as shown in
Figure 5. The maximum trim range is +10% up and –20% down. The appropriate resistor values versus the
output voltage are given in the trim table below.
