DIAMONDBACK Series
DIAMONDBACK Series Programmable Multi-Channel
Solid State Power Controllers
The Diamondback Programmable Multi-
Channel Solid State Power Controller (SSPC)
is a microcontroller-based, COTS Solid State
Power Controller board designed for 28VDC
applications. Each channel of the
Diamondback has software-programmable
current ratings and can operate grouped with
other channels to support loads up to 150A.
The board has integrated current, temperature
and voltage sensing and no derating over
temperature. Parameter measurements,
system status information and control
commands are issued over a serial
communications interface.
