SeaRAY Leverages Vicor Tech to Convert Wave Energy

Nov. 10, 2021
The scalable power design of the SeaRAY uses Vicor BCM fixed-ratio bus converter and PRM regulator modules with complex multistage discrete converters to efficiently convert wave energy and provide controlled power.

The extremely lightweight SeaRAY architecture, with its ultra-compact footprint and highly efficient data-conversion capability, required intense focus on the power-conversion subsystem. The Vicor Power Systems (VPS) design team, which specializes in developing customized power systems using advanced Vicor power modules, embraced the ambitious design goals.
