Abstract

The need for high power density has been the trend of the power conversion industry for many years. The key to obtain a high power density is to increase system’s efficiency. In the case of space applications, there is the same need for high power density but with the very important note that the reliability of the system must not be compromised. In order to increase system’s efficiency while maintaining reliability, the latest soft switching converter topologies, high power density packaging, improved heat extraction and planar magnetics are used. Other key parameters are: the digital loop control and the digital energy management through microcontrollers, and digital signal controllers.
