APS DC-DC Boost Converters

American Power Systems, Inc.’s high-efficiency DC-DC boost converters—also called DC-DC step-up converters—effectively increase output voltage while simultaneously stepping down output current.

Higher output voltage means no additional batteries are necessary, which saves space in the engine compartment and reduces equipment costs over time. APS specializes in DC-DC boost converters for diverse mobile applications, including non-standard commercial vehicles, light tactical vehicles, coaches, work trucks and others.

More About

Clients use our converters in a variety of scenarios from defense to commercial, with transceivers, power amplifier kits, communication vehicles, and communication equipment racking in fixed installations and at command posts and tactical operations centers. They also provide dependable output for marine and other mobile applications.
In addition, APS DC-DC boost converters have been used for special defense applications, including high-definition, precision targeting and intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance (ISR) sensor systems.

DC-DC Boost Converters Features & Benefits

High efficiency, switch-mode
Compact and uniquely low-profile
Rugged construction
Dependable, continuous power
APS converters are switch-mode power supplies, which means that very little energy is dissipated as heat, allowing units to operate in a highly efficient manner.
APS DC-DC boost converters are designed for military use, so they’re compact and ready to handle harsh environments exposed to shock and vibration.
Units are built to withstand a wide operational temperature range and are well suited for high-temperature environments.
Our input-transient, non-isolated, single-output units use synchronous rectification technology and reverse-polarity protected circuitry. They also follow conservative component de-rating guidelines.
