-- Dual outputs of +/- 5, +/- 12, and +/- 15V
-- Wide input voltage range of 15 to 50V per MIL-STD-704
-- Extreme reliability
-- Very low output noise, 10 to 25 mVp-p typical
-- Small size of 1.130" x 1.460", light 24/28 grams of weight
-- Fault tolerant magnetic feedback circuit
-- Undervoltage lockout, indefinite short circuit protection, current limit
protections
-- Full performance over -55 degrees C to +125 degrees C military
temperature range
-- High input transient voltage of 80V for 1 second per MIL-STD-704A
-- Manufactured in a MIL-PRF-38534 and ISO9001 Facility.
-- Meets MIL-STD-461 Revisions C, D, E, and F EMC requirements when used
with with VPT's DVMH EMI filter
