FREMONT, Calif., Sept. 16, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Digital Power Corporation (NYSE MKT: DPW) announced that it recently was awarded two contracts, one to develop a custom switching power solution for cloud based data centers and the other to develop a custom power solution for converged cable TV edge router and gateway nodes. Based on current purchase forecasts provided by the customers to these contracts and after completion of development, the company expects to generate aggregate annual revenue of $1.3 million from these contracts for a period of five years. The customers may update their purchase forecasts from time to time.

The solution for data centers is intended to support the rapidly increasing demand for cloud based computing services. The solution for router and gateway nodes is intended to support the high demands of virtual converged cable access platform (CCAP) over cable TV operator networks for IP video streaming services and file uploads and downloads.

For data centers, the Digital Power DC/DC 1300 watt product features a fully synchronous rectifier design and employs advanced digital signal processing (DSP) devices and firmware for real-time monitoring and performance control. The DSP communicates with a host processor to enable the system to monitor and control performance, including timing, digital control loops, and multiphase clocking, using the industry standard SMBus. For router and gateway nodes, the Digital Power AC/DC pseudo-square wave product features an advanced synchronous rectifier AC/DC front end to improve power efficiency. This product also is fully DSP controlled.

Amos Kohn, president and CEO of Digital Power Corporation comments, "We are proud that we have been selected to provide our technology and designs to customers in these two service industries. Our power solutions are based on the next-generation of digital synchronous rectifier design, and we believe they are among the most technologically advanced power processing solutions on the market." Mr. Kohn added, "We hope that these engagements will lead to additional opportunities to serve these growing market segments".
