PPI Power, Inc. began developing a new product line of DO-160 compliant all-in-one AC to low voltage DC power modules in 2006 and today the category has expanded to 12 unique modules with a variety of end-use applications.
“We have augmented the product offering, increased output capacity without increasing size and weight and are now able to offer up to 100W of power factor corrected output power in a 12 cubic inch PCB mountable package,” said Jim Haig, CEO of PPI.
There are some distinct advantages when incorporating these embedded power supply modules and what they mean for the industry. All equipment used within avionic applications must comply with stringent electrical and environmental requirements. The all-in-one power modules from PPI Power, inc. simplify the process because the modules already comply at the module level and are readily adapted to the same specifications at the upper-unit level; this saves time and money and frees up crucial engineering resources to focus on other important system level design tasks.
The modules possess very high Mean Time Between Failure (MTBF) projections/ statistical data and rigorous verification testing is imposed to assure years of safe, reliable operation in the harshest environments.
What types of equipment are these modules currently powering?
The current industry focus is within in-flight entertainment equipment including file servers, content loaders, wireless access points, displays, monitors, antenna controllers, audio distribution units, electronic flight bags and PED chargers.
What Aircraft?
All Boeing and Airbus Aircraft.
