Satellite electrical power system (EPS)

Block diagram

Overview

Satellites harness power from solar panels to power spacecrafts. This high voltage supply needs to be stored and converted for all the onboard electronics. Our large portfolio of space-qualified devices and reference designs help you maximize your system performance.

Design requirements

Modern satellite electrical power systems (EPS) require:

  • Multiple low noise and efficient point-of-load supplies.
  • Efficient isolated power supplies to convert the main bus to point-of-load supplies.
  • A feedback method to monitor the secondary supply rail.
