Vicor Javelin II - Manual (Page 4)

I & II Power Supply
Power Factor Corrected AC-DC Switcher
Overview
The Javelin is a ruggedized, switching power supply that combines the advantages of power factor correction
and power density with user-selectable output voltage and power. Accepting input voltages of 85 to 254 VAC
and 85 to 380 VDC, the Javelin can provide up to 1800 watts in a 4.9 H x 7.0 W x 10.75 L (9.5 L for Javelin
II) package. Its inherent flexibility comes from its use of Vicor 2
nd Generation DC-DC converters. Javelin I has
a 100 CFM fan installed, while Javelin II utilizes customer-provided forced-air cooling.

Technical Description
The Javelin consists of a DC or off-line single phase power-factor-corrected front end, with an EMI filter, cool-
ing fan (Javelin I), customer interface, associated housekeeping circuits, and a selection of Vicor’s DC-DC con-
verters.
Input DC or AC mains voltage is applied to a 3-pin power connector. The input current is passed through an
EMI filter designed to meet conducted noise limit specification EN55022, level A and B.
At start-up, inrush current is limited by a PTC thermistor. The PTC is shunted out shortly after initial power-up
by a DC bus voltage sense circuit driving a thyristor. After rectification, the input voltage is put through a
boost converter that keeps the AC input current sinusoidal and synchronized with the input AC voltage (in
compliance with EN61000-3-2). The boost converter delivers a regulated input to the hold-up capacitors and a
high voltage backplane. The backplane supplies power to the DC-DC converters that provide the desired low
voltage, regulated output.
