Abstract :
Devices used in future experiments at LHC will be called to work in very hostile environment. Power supply is a key aspects in this scenario and new converter will be re-designed in order to meet the future requirements. In this paper a main DC-DC power converter, developed by authors in the framework of the APOLLO R&D project, has been proposed and the experimental activity devoted to its characterization is presented and discussed.
