Total Power Solutions
Vicor Corporation produces families of compact, economical, high performance power components
and systems that offer the system designer a “total solution” to most power system requirements.

applications information as it applies to Vicor’s first generation of DC-DC converters (VI-200,
VI-J00) and accessory modules (VI-IAM, VI-RAM, VI-AIM,VI-HAM). For information on Vicor’s
2nd generation products visit our website at vicr.com. Additionally, a glossary of technical terms has
been included for your convenience.
System architects are being asked to squeeze more and more power into ever-shrinking spaces. This
applications manual is designed to help system designers make the most of their available space
using Vicor power components.
