What are the key features of 5962-8670408VPA?
- Space-grade qualification with ceramic DIP-8 package for high-reliability aerospace and military power supply designs
- Current-mode PWM control at up to 500 kHz with 50% duty cycle limit for push-pull topology compatibility
- Integrated 8.4 V/7.6 V undervoltage lockout (UVLO) protecting converter operation below the valid input supply window of 12 V to 25 V
What is 5962-8670408VPA used for?
The 5962-8670408VPA is designed for space-grade DC-DC power supply designs in satellite subsystems, launch vehicle avionics, and radiation-tolerant electronics where ceramic packaging and military screening are mandatory. Its current-mode PWM architecture enables stable operation at 500 kHz switching frequency in push-pull converters powering spacecraft housekeeping buses. The UVLO thresholds at 8.4 V and 7.6 V ensure the controller only operates when the 15 V nominal input supply is within its valid operating window, preventing false starts and ensuring power system reliability.

Frequently Asked Questions
What makes the 5962-8670408VPA suitable for space applications compared to commercial PWM controllers?
The 5962-8670408VPA carries a MIL-PRF-38535 screening designation (5962 prefix) and is housed in a ceramic 8-pin DIP package, providing radiation and moisture resistance required for satellite and space-vehicle applications. Commercial plastic-packaged PWM controllers lack the environmental screening and traceability demanded by space-grade procurement standards.
What is the operating frequency and input voltage range of the 5962-8670408VPA?
The 5962-8670408VPA operates at a switching frequency up to 500 kHz with an input supply voltage range of 12 V minimum to 25 V maximum, with 15 V nominal. The high switching frequency allows the use of smaller magnetic components in the power stage, reducing the weight and volume of power converters in mass-constrained spacecraft designs.
How does the 50% duty-cycle clamp in 5962-8670408VPA affect converter topology selection?
The built-in 50% duty cycle maximum makes the 5962-8670408VPA ideal for push-pull and half-bridge converter topologies, which require the duty cycle of each switch to stay below 50% to avoid transformer core saturation. Flyback or boost converters operating above 50% duty cycle are not compatible without external duty-cycle override circuitry.
What UVLO thresholds does the 5962-8670408VPA use and why are they important for power system sequencing?
The 5962-8670408VPA has an 8.4 V start threshold and a 7.6 V stop threshold for its undervoltage lockout, creating a 0.8 V hysteresis window. This hysteresis prevents chattering at the UVLO boundary during power-up and ensures the controller enables the power switch only when the 12 V to 25 V input rail is reliably established, which is critical for orderly power sequencing in spacecraft bus architectures.
