A number of harsh-environment high-reliability applications are undergoing substantial electrification. The converters operating in such systems need to be designed to meet both stringent performance and reliability requirements. This work focuses on a dc-dc converter for novel avionic applications and considers both new semiconductor technologies and the application of design techniques to ensure that robustness is maximized and stress levels minimized. In this respect, close attention is paid to the thermal management and an approach for the heatsink design aided by finite element modeling is shown.

Abstract
A number of harsh-environment high-reliability applications are undergoing substantial electrification. The converters operating in such systems need to be designed to meet both stringent performance and reliability requirements. This work focuses on a dc-dc converter for novel avionic applications and considers both new semiconductor technologies and the application of design techniques to ensure that robustness is maximized and stress levels minimized. In this respect, close attention is paid to the thermal management and an approach for the heatsink design aided by finite element modeling is shown.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
