Increasingly, military vehicles are provisioned with electronics for control, communications, navigation and display systems. DC-DC converters provide auxiliary power for these systems but can be subject to high electrical and environmental stress in the application. This article outlines the stress levels defined by the common standards used and identifies the specifications that DC-DC converters need to meet.

DC-DC converters used in onboard rail applications must meet challenging electrical supply and environmental specifications.
Aircraft control and auxiliary functions have always incorporated a mix of technologies.
Switching DC-DC converters in military applications must meet stringent standards for limits on conducted input noise emissions and typically require input filter networks for compliance.
DC-DC converters are critical to the ongoing transition toward More Electric Aircraft (MEA), where electric solutions replace hydraulic and pneumatic systems.
The design of complex, high-power DC-to-DC converter architectures poses some challenges to engineers developing aerospace and military-grade power systems.
