Innovations in Power Conversion for Defense and Aerospace
June 16, 2025
By Todd Hendrix
Historically, strict standards in defense and aerospace led OEMs to create specialized power solutions. Now, budget constraints are driving the use of commercial components and sub-systems. As a result, the global market for military-grade commercial power products (which includes high-efficiency AC-DC power supplies, isolated DC-DC board mounted power and non-isolated point-of-load converters) is expected to grow from USD 2.7 billion in 2023 to almost USD 3.7 billion by 20301.

Reducing RAN Running Costs with Advanced DC-DC Technologies
October 08, 2024
By Andy Brown
The reliability issue is a significant pain point because a so-called “truck roll” (a visit by a service technician to the base station to repair or replace a component, circuit board or other assembly) is a costly last resort that service providers want to avoid. Unplanned downtime and maintenance costs can mount very quickly, reaching many hundreds of times the cost of any specific part or system that has failed.
