OverviewWIENER VPX power supplies are conduction-cooled, commercial off-the-shelf (COTS) single-stage converters designed to meet VITA 62.0 requirements and to integrate into standard VPX avionics chassis compliant with the VITA 46.0 envelope. The VPX340 series delivers up to 400W with high efficiency and a wide input range, and is tested to MIL-STD profiles for airborne and rugged ground applications. Onboard intelligence provides monitoring and control via I²C and Micro-USB interfaces for system integration and maintenance.
