During the 25 years of space flight with unmanned Earth orbiting satellites, there has been an evolution of power systems in three general areas. The size of power system in terms of power demand at the bus has increased frorm a few watts in the early 1960s to a few hundred watts during the 1970s. Today, the bus power requirements are typically in the .5 to 1 kw range with some mission requirements exceeding the 1 kw size. Power grounding and user isolation are major design considerations when high fidelity power is required by a user.
