SVGA0515SG SERIES

Product catalog summary
Overview: The SVGA0515SG series is a space-qualified point of load DC-DC converter designed for use in harsh radiation environments, suitable for various orbits and deep space missions.
Specifications: The converter operates with a 5V nominal input voltage, providing an adjustable output from 0.8V to 3.4V at up to 15 Amps. It boasts an efficiency of up to 94% and a power density of up to 150 W/in3. The operating temperature ranges from -55°C to +125°C, with storage temperatures from -65°C to +150°C.
Features: Key features include radiation-hardened components, short circuit protection, output inhibit control, low output noise, and no use of optoisolators.
Space Level Characterizations: The series guarantees TID performance up to 100 krad(Si) and SEE performance to 85 MeV/mg/cm2, with comprehensive analysis and reports available.
Manufacturing and Compliance: The product is qualified to MIL-PRF-38534 Class H and Class K, manufactured in a MIL-PRF-38534 facility, and ISO-9001 certified.
Mechanical and Packaging: The converter measures 1.110” x 1.110” x 0.276” and weighs a maximum of 22g, housed in a hermetic metal case.
Performance Specifications: It offers voltage regulation of ±1.0% at 25°C and ±1.5% across the full temperature range, with a ripple voltage of 90-180 mVpp and load regulation of 0.2%. The switching frequency is between 200-315 kHz.
Protection Features: Includes input undervoltage lockout and output soft-start to prevent overshoot.
Technical Notes: The converter is a non-isolated, fixed-frequency, synchronous buck converter requiring an additional 100 µF tantalum input decoupling capacitor. Output voltage is adjustable via an external resistor.
Short Circuit Protection: The converter includes output short circuit protection, entering a hiccup mode upon detecting high peak current, attempting a soft-start after a delay until the fault is cleared.
Thermal Considerations: Operates at full power up to 125°C, with power derating linearly to zero at 135°C. Designed for conduction cooling with heat dissipation through the baseplate.
Radiation Hardness Assurance: VPT ensures performance through a DLA-approved RHA plan, including testing for TID, SEE, and ELDRS, with hybrid-level characterization and RLAT for sensitive components.
Environmental Screening: Products are tested per MIL-STD-883 and MIL-PRF-38534 standards, with additional screening options available.
Standard Microcircuit Drawing (SMD) Numbers: Available with specific SMD numbers for standard gold-plated lead finish and RHA level R.
Ordering Information: The ordering code includes details on product series, input voltage, output current, number of outputs, package options, and screening codes. Contact VPT Sales for more options.
Contact Information: For quotations or orders, contact VPT, Inc. Sales Department via phone, fax, or email. Additional technical resources are available on the VPT website.

vpr Power Your Critical Mission Today O- 1. Rtrim should be connected directly across pins 11 and 12 as close as possible to the SVGA. 2. AGND should be connected to GND close to the SVGA. Voltage difference between the AGND and the GND pins greater than 0.3 V may result in regulation error and/or damage to the SVGA. 3. If not using INH, leave pin 9 open. 4. Rcomp and Ccomp are optional components that can be used to optimize the SVGA transient response. 3.0 SPECIFICATIONS 3.1 ABSOLUTE MAXIMUM RATINGS
