Product Summary

The VI-231-CU is a battery charger current source module. The BatMod combines Vicor’s industry standard package with the flexibility of a power converter whose output voltage and output current may be independently set. BatMod’s allow the user to independently program a constant output current and a maximum float voltage. The float voltage of the VI-231-CU is the point at which the BatMod transitions from constant current to constant voltage. These features of the VI-231-CU make the BatMod an ideal candidate for battery charging and other applications which require a controlled current source.
