Description

The NAT-PM-AC1000 is a 1000W AC / DC Power Module for applications in MTCA.4 form factor. It is hot-swappable, high-efficient, fully redundant, and therefore a good choice for all air-cooled MTCA.4 systems.

The NAT-PM-AC1000 provides efficient power conversion from an AC input source (110 VAC – 265 VAC auto range) to 16 independent channels for payload and management power. This is sufficient for the expected workload of 12 AMC modules, 2 Cooling Units, and 2 MCHs with 12V @ 6.6A max. and 3.3V @ 180mA max. So even high-power demanding AMCs can be operated simultaneously with full performance.

The VAC power input offers the following features:

  • input protection and under-voltage shutdown
  • input isolation
  • inrush control
  • EMI filtering
  • holdup circuit

On its secondary side, the NAT-PM-AC1000 provides:

  • output filtering stage
  • output voltage protection
  • output short circuit protection

As all of NAT’s Power Modules, the NAT-PM-AC1000 supports load sharing. According to the MTCA specifications, it is fully redundant and ensures e.g., N+1 and 2+2 redundancy. So it provides Shared Power Management (SMP), which means it ensures backup power for up to three Power Modules. In case of an input power supply failure, the onboard EMMC can provide SMP power from other PMs. So the MCH is able to analyze root cause failure.

By means of its robust EMMC (Enhanced Module Management Controller) for power control functionality, the NAT-PM-AC1000 as well as its relatives communicates with the MCH. An optical load indicator realized by an LED bar displays the level of power utilization of the whole system continuously.

The NAT-PM-AC1000 AC Power Module is available in double-width full-size form factor only. For a superior single-width Power Module, please refer to the NAT-PM-DC48.
