High voltage design and manufacturing comes with an additional set of disciplines that must be applied in order to produce products with excellent long term reliability, often in harsh environments. As high voltage power supplies become increasingly compact and miniaturized, mastering these disciplines is essential to ensure long term and trouble-free operation in the field. Failure to properly apply these design and manufacturing principles can result in real-world MTBF’s well below design expectations.

Next-Generation, Miniature High Voltage Power Modules
Source: XP EMCO
The first generation of high voltage power modules changed the way designers could use high voltage, and the next-generation is pushing the envelope further.
XP EMCO next-generation, miniature high voltage power modules provide designers and end-users ever-expanding choices for off-the-shelf, drop-in miniature solutions to meet their high voltage needs.
The next-generation of high voltage power modules features more watts per cubic inch, reduced power consumption with the addition of smart features for control and safety. As the number of applications requiring high voltage grows, reliable operation with size and weight limits present tough challenges. This white paper describes XP EMCO’s solution to these challenges.
