Selecting Components of Military Power Supplies

• The parts used to design and manufacture power
  supplies for military use are determined by their
  intended application, expected life cycle,
  availability, repair-ability, and service
  regulations.

• When the power supplies are intended to be used
  in the field, the choice of component and the
  design methodology is more rigorous

4
Intended Application and Mission

• Power supplies used in military operations must
  adhere to certain standards and specifications
  related to their field application

• Another factor that manufacturers must keep in
  mind is that military power supplies demand
  greater protection from power spikes and
  lightning strikes

5
Rugged Design to Withstand Various Environments

• Personnel and equipment can be quickly deployed
  in short notice from desert environments to the
  tropics or to the mountains.

• When it comes to handling temperatures, military
  units require power supplies that can withstand a
  range between 40 degrees below to more than 80
  degrees Celsius.

6
Higher Technology

• The future of military power supplies involves
  more than just being able to withstand mission
  variables such as environments, climates and
  rugged use

• Although skilled military field technicians can
  quickly troubleshoot and fix power supply issues,
  the risk of bringing down a system for repair can
  be mitigated with a smart power supply
