Abstract

Real-time solid-state power controllers (SSPCs) are used in the design of the electrical load management center (ELMC). ELMCs which are either centrally or remotely located can achieve the overall system flexibility needed for next-generation complex platforms. The electrical and mechanical features of the SSPC series are discussed, together with military screening, mechanical specifications, and other product options. Power MOSFET circuitry plays a significant role in the direct digital control SSPCs which are described
