SatCon Announces New Standard Product Line of Power Regulators

SatCon Technology Corporation(R) (Nasdaq NM: SATC),
today announced that SatCon Electronics, a wholly owned subsidiary and
designer and manufacturer of high reliability electronic components
has introduced the SAT8600 series of Ultra-Low-Dropout linear
regulators designed specifically for "Point-of-Load" use in power
systems.
   Jack Worthen, SatCon Electronics President, stated, "This new line
of standard power products is another major accomplishment toward our
strategic initiative outlined in 2006 goals." Worthen added, "These
new devices will provide our Space and Military customers with
reliable and efficient solutions for post-regulation when using DC-DC
converter-based power."
   SatCon offers the only Remote-Sense ULDO regulator on the market.
This feature adjusts the output for load variations due to line
resistance and allows placement of the regulator anywhere on the PCB.
The new units are available in 3A & 5A configurations covering most of
the useful application range of military linear regulators. They are
available in 5-pin leaded or lead-formed hermetic packages (MO-078).
   Ultra-Low-Dropout post regulators are typically needed to drop bus
voltages from +5V or +3.3V to lower levels typically required by
highly integrated devices such as FPGA's, ASIC's, Logic, CPU's. They
provide an efficient means of converting bus power to a useful level
such as +2.5V, +1.8V or +1.5V. The ability to maintain regulation at
very low input voltage levels (+2.8V), minimizes power dissipation and
helps to conserve overall system power. Many Rad-Hard FPGA's currently
available, require supply voltages as low as +1.5V with tolerances of
+/- 5% over radiation and temperature. The SatCon ULDO regulators will
provide the required supply voltages for these peripherals within the
tolerances needed. They are guaranteed to perform within 5%, over
time, temperature (-55C to +125C) and under the severe conditions of
Space.
   These new devices are available screened to H & K-Levels
(MIL-PRF-38534), simplifying qualification and time to project
completion compared to other custom-designed solutions. COTS
(un-screened) devices are also available for prototyping and/or use in
applications not requiring high reliability processing.
   SatCon Electronics is a leader in design and manufacturing of high
reliability power management, analog signal processing, RF, and thin
film components.
