Section-A 1. Introduction Space Applications Centre (SAC), Indian Space Research Organization (ISRO) has heritage of space programs and development of payloads for GEO, LEO and planetary missions. Remote sensing and Meteorological Imaging Payloads electronics redefine their requirements in terms of processing speeds, resolutions, modularity, reliability and miniaturization. Payload Power supply (PPS) are required for providing regulated supply to various camera electronics sub-systems. The requirement of efficient, low power space worthy DC-DC converter power supplies is highly anticipated considering the present and future missions. In this context, Centre is planning to develop Payload power supplies through Indian Industry. This Request for Proposal (RFP) is to deliver Payload Power Supplies as per the details laid down in the following sections.

This RFP provides baseline converter configuration, electrical and mechanical specifications, R&QA requirement, tests to be conducted on each model, along with important developmental milestones and expected delivery schedule that should be maintained by the vendor at various stages.

There are five types of PPS to be developed. The design of the PPS will be provided by SAC. Vendor shall develop BBM, DVM, QM and FM models of all types of PPS mentioned in this RFP. The Vendor has to develop, test, qualify and deliver the power supplies.

2. Guidelines 2.1 Mandatory Guidelines
