Lisa PMS: Power Supply Module design and development
5 July 2026 • 17:30 - 19:00 CEST | Room B4-M3
Abstract
We present a technical status on the development of the Power Supply Module (PSM) of the Phasemeter Measurement System (PMS) for LISA. We provide a description of the overall module architecture, input and output connections, updated individual component design, specific progress on housekeeping and OVP/OCP circuitry, and an early design of the custom DC/DC converters necessary for the mission’s high demanding requirements.
