Diagram at left illustrates STAR-PAN’s ability to

distribute battery power to radios, peripheral

devices, and the EUD/host (shown in green)

via designated ports. On-board power

conversion capability can also deliver 5 Volt

power (shown in red) for USB power.

Auxiliary power sources, such as conditioned

DC power from vehicles (shown in orange)

is conditioned by the STAR-PAN embedded

electronic subsystem for use by both standard

battery-powered devices (green) as well as

compatible 5 Volt equipment (red). The power

may be served to both the EUD host port

as well as to multiple PAN and radio ports.

Finally, STAR-PAN functions as a charging

station (shown in blue) to a rechargeable

lithium ion smart battery.

mart power monitoring and embedded charging /conditioning are core capabilities in

the STAR-PAN system. Support for both standard battery and auxiliary power sources

is enabled with board-level electronics and firmware optimizing power monitoring

and conditioning for extended mission life. The STAR-PAN system is available with all

interconnect hub-to-power source adapters including support of scavenged power from

direct current sources.

This diagram illustrates the STAR-PAN VI congured with available

808-063 Radio Power Booster. While operating from the main Power

Source, trickle charge is provided to the radio battery. If the main

power source is depleted, the STAR-PAN’s smart power management

utilizes 5V power from the radio battery to power the system’s critical

5V lines.

Smart Power = Longer Missions, Lighter Load

rom the JTAC’s perspective, STAR-PAN is primarily a high-speed data processing and

routing device. But its second core function—smart power monitoring, conditioning

and charging—turns STAR-PAN into a powerful tool for extended mission life and

operational eectiveness. Smart power equals longer missions, lighter load. STAR-PAN

signicantly reduces the number of batteries that must be carried by the soldier. Available

interconnect cabling and power adapter accessories facilitate accelerated charging of the

EUD, radio and peripherals as well as scavenged power from DC sources such as vehicles.
