Meeting Military Standards with Commercial Power Technologies
9월 15, 2025
By Todd Hendrix
In recent years, there has been an increasing adoption of commercial components and subsystems within defense and aerospace sectors, encompassing land, sea, and air applications. This is as true for power conversion and delivery technologies as it is for semiconductors, passive components and electro-mechanical parts, all of which must meet the standards set by the U.S. Department of Defense (DoD). These standards are among the world’s most exacting and have been duplicated or referenced by many allied forces.

Reducing RAN Running Costs with Advanced DC-DC Technologies
10월 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.

Powering Point-of-Care Ultrasound in Acute Care Settings
8월 08, 2024
Ultrasound, being a non-invasive diagnostic method, is widely utilized in the field of medical imaging. According to research published in the Journal of Radiology Nursing [POCUS used widely in lung ultrasound applications | AuntMinnie] Point-of-care ultrasound (POCUS) is being seen as a “global grassroots movement” and some of the top domains for POCUS are in acute care settings, such as emergency medicine, trauma or critical care. Especially in these care settings, it is even more necessary that these ultrasound units work reliably
