Operating at frequencies up to 2 MHz, VI-200 family converters offer exceptional
power density, efficiency, noise performance, reliability and ease of use. Booster mod-
ules (VI-Bxx) provide a simple, cost-effective, off-the-shelf solution for higher power
output requirements. One or more boosters may be used to create synchronous arrays
capable of supplying several kilowatts of output power.
The flexibility of Vicor’s power components is also available in half-size, half-power
VI-J00 MiniMods.

10 V, 12 V, 13.8 V, 15 V outputs, or “V” input range have standard trim range ±10%. Consult factory for wider trim range.
3.3 V output trim range 2.20 to 3.63 V, 95 V output –50 + 0% trim range.
131% nominal for booster modules.
Output voltages of 3.3 V or 5 V incorporate foldback current limiting; For output voltages from 5.2 V to 7.5 V consult factory; All other outputs provide constant current limiting.
