The VadaTech UTC020 is a 936 W power module (available in 468 W) for use in a μTCA chassis. The power module runs at 95% efficiency when running at maximum load. This results in over 890 W available to the system. It is fully compliant with the MicroTCA.0 revision 1.0 specification; including dual-redundant I2C buses (IPMB-0). The UTC020 is hot-swappable and fully redundant when used in conjunction with a second instance of the module. It provides power to the twelve slots, two MCHs (MicroTCA Carrier Hubs) as well as the CUs (Cooling Units).
Multiple temperature sensors are included on-board to monitor for over-temp conditions within the module. The current is continuously measured for each of the modules and reported to MCH for any fault. Once installed in the system the firmware is upgradable via the shelf manager. The UTC020 can be configured to power and enable the modules without the presence of an MCH.
