Patent ID: 10340812

Abstract:
A modular high-power converter system includes an electronic power distribution unit configured to output an analog current (AC) voltage to a power bus, and at least one Transmit or Receive Integrated Microwave Module (T/RIMM) that includes a voltage converter unit and a transmitter and receiver (T/R) unit. The voltage converter unit includes at least one analog-to-digital converter (ADC) to convert the AC voltage into a direct current (DC) voltage having a first DC voltage level. The transmitter and receiver (T/R) unit includes a modular-based DC/DC converter to convert the DC voltage into a second DC voltage having a second voltage. The modular-based DC/DC converter includes a modular power converter unit configured to generate the second DC voltage. The modular converter unit is configured to be independently interchangeable with a different modular converter unit.
