Absolute Maximum Ratings

Note: Stresses in excess of the maximum ratings can cause permanent damage to the device. Operation of the device is not implied at these or any other conditions

in excess of those given in the specification. Exposure to absolute maximum ratings can adversely affect device reliability.

The VI BRICK VTM Current Multiplier

provides extremely fast, efficient, and quiet

fixed ratio voltage division (or current

multiplication). With twelve voltage division

ratios from 1:1 to 1:32, the isolated

VI BRICK VTM provides the user with the

flexibility to supply up to 100 A or 120 W at

any output voltage from 1 to 50 Vdc in a

package occupying ~ 2 square inches.

The Military COTS VI BRICK VTMs are

optimized for use with the Military

Pre-Regulator Module to implement a

Factorized Power Architecture (FPA).

the full functionality of a DC-DC converter,

but with breakthrough performance and

flexibility in a rugged, miniature package.

The companion VI BRICK PRM for the MT036

family of VI BRICK VTMs is the 28 Vdc input

MR028A036M012FP, which operates from

an input range of 16-50 Vdc (the data sheet

is available at vicorpower.com). The VTM can

also be used as a standalone POL product.

By factorizing the DC-DC power conversion

into its essential elements – isolation and

transformation on the one hand, and the

output voltage control and regulation on

the other – and arranging those functions

in a sequence that maximizes system

performance, FPA offers a fundamentally

new and significantly improved approach to

power conversion.

The VI BRICK VTM’s fast dynamic response

and low noise eliminate the need for bulk

capacitance at the load, substantially

increasing the POL density while improving

reliability and decreasing cost.
