Description
The QBDW033A0B series of dc-dc converters are a new generation of DC/DC power modules designed to support
9.6 -12Vdc intermediate bus applications where multiple low voltages are subsequently generated using point of load
(POL) converters, as well as other application requiring a tightly regulated output voltage. The QBDW033A0B series
operate from an input voltage range of 36 to 75Vdc and provide up to 33A out put curr e nt at output voltages from
8.1Vdc to 12Vdc, and 400W output power from output voltages of 12.1Vdc to 13.2Vdc in a DOSA standard quarter brick.
The converter in corporates dig ital con trol, synchronous rectification technology, a fully regulated control topology, and
innovative packaging techniques to achieve efficiency exceeding 96% peak at 12Vdc output. This leads to lower
power dissipations such that for many applications a heat sink is not required. Standard features include output
voltage trim, remote sense, on/off control, output overcurrent and over voltage protection, over temperature
protection, input under and over voltage lockout, power good signal and PMBus interface.
The output is fully isolated from the input, allowing versatile polarity configurations and grounding connections. Built-
in filtering for both input and output minimizes the need for external filtering.

CAUTION: This power module is not i n ternally fused. An input line fuse must always be used.
This power module can be used in a wide variety of applications, ranging from simple standalone operation to an
integrated part of sophisticated power architecture. To preserve maximum flexibility, internal fusing is not included,
however, to achieve maximum safety and system protection, always use an input line fuse. The safety agencies require a
fast-acting fuse with a maximum rating of 30 A (see Safety Considerations section). Based on the information provided in
this Data Sheet on inrush energy and maximum dc input current, the same type of fuse with a lower rating can be used.

Test Configurations
Note: Measure input reflected-ripple current with a
simulated
source inductance (LTEST) of 12 µH. Capacitor CS offsets
possibl e battery impedanc e. Measure current as shown above.
Figure 11. Input Reflected Ripple Current Test Setup.
Note: Use a 1.0 µF ceramic capacitor and a 10 µF aluminum or
tantalum capacitor. Scope measurement should be made
using a BNC socket. Position the load between
51 mm and 76 mm (2 in. and 3 in. ) from the module.
Figure 12. Output Ripple and Noise Test Setup.
Note: All measurements are taken at the module terminals.
When socketing, place Kelvin connections at module terminals
to avoid measurement errors due to socket contact resist ance.
Figure 13. Output Voltag e and Efficiency Test Setup.
Design Considerations
Input Source Impedance
The power module should be connected to a low
ac-impedance source. A highly inductive source
impedance can affect the stability of the power module.
For the test configuration in Figure 10, a 100μF
electrolytic capacitor, Cin, (ESR<0.7 at 100kHz),
mounted close to the power module helps ensure the
stability of the unit. If the module is subjected to rapid
on/off cycles, a 330μF input capacitor is required.
Consult the factory for further application guidelines.
Safety Considerations
For safety-agency approval of the system in which the
power module is used, the power module must be
installed in compliance with the spacing and separation
requirements of the end-u se s afety agency stand ar d, i.e.,
UL60950-1 2nd Ed., CSA C22.2 No. 60950-1 2nd Ed., and
VDE0805-1 EN60950-1 2nd Ed.
If the input source is non-SELV (ELV or a hazardous
voltage greater than 60 Vdc and less than or equal to
75Vdc), for the module’s output to be considered as
meeting the requirements for safety extra-low voltage
(SELV), all of the following must be true:
The input source is to be provided with reinforced
insulation from any other hazardous voltages,
including the ac mains.
One VIN pin and one VOUT pin are to be grounded, or
both the input and output pins are to be kept
floating.
The input pins of the module are not operator
accessible.
Another SELV reliability test is conducted on the
whole system (combination of supply source and
subject module), as required by the safety agencies,
to verify that under a single fault, hazardous
voltages do not appear at the module’s output.
Note: Do not ground either of the input pins of the
module without grounding one of the output pins.
This may allow a non-SELV voltage to appear
between the output pins and ground.
The power module has safety extra-low voltage (SELV)
outputs when all inputs are SELV.
The input to these units is to be provided with a
maximum 30 A fast-acting (or time-delay) fuse in the
unearthed lea d.
The power module has internally generated voltages
exceeding safe ty ex tr a-low voltage. Consideration should
be taken to restrict operato r accessibility .

Feature Descr i pti ons
Overcurrent Protection
To provide protection in a fault output overload condition,
the QBDW033A0B module is equipped with inter nal
current-limiting circuitr y and ca n endure current limiting
continuously. If the overcurrent condition causes the
output voltage to fall below 4.0V, the module w ill shut
down. The module is factory default configured for auto-
restart operation. The auto-restart fe ature co ntin ual ly
attempts to restore the operation until fault condition is
cleared. If the output overload condition still exists when
the module restarts, it will shut down again. This
operation will continue indefinitely until the overcurrent
condition is corrected.
The IOUT_OC_WARN threshold level,
IOUT_OC_FAULT threshold level, and
IOUT_OC_FAULT_RESPONSE can be reconfigured via
the PMBus interface. If the FAULT _RESPONSE is
reconfigured to remain latched off following an
overcurrent shutdown, the overcurrent latch is reset by
either cycling the inp ut pow er , or by toggling the on/off
pin for one millisecond.
Output Overvoltage Protection
The module contains circuitry to detect and respond to
output overv olta ge cond itio ns. If the overvoltage
condition causes the output voltage to rise above the
limit in the Specifications Table, the module will shut
down. The QBDW033A0B module is fact or y default
configured for auto-restart operation. The auto-restart
feature continually attempts to restore the operation until
fault condition is cleared. If the output overvoltage
condition still exists when the module restarts, it will shut
down again. This operation will continue indefinitely until
the overvolt age con diti on is cor recte d.
The VOUT_OV_FAULT threshold level and
VOUT_OV_FAULT _RESPONSE can be reconfigured
via the PMBus interface. If the FAULT _RESPONSE is
reconfigured to remain latched off following an
overvoltage shutdown, the overvoltage latch is reset by
either cycling the inp ut pow er , or by toggling the on/off
pin for one millisecond.
Overtemperature Protection
The modules feat ure an overte mper a ture pr ote cti on
circuit to safeguard against thermal damage. The circuit
shuts down the module when the default maximum
device reference temperature is exceeded. The module
is factory default configured to automatically restart once
the reference temperature cools by ~25°C.
The OT_W A RNING and OT _FAU LT threshold lev els
and OT_FAULT_RESPONSE can be reconfigured via
the PMBus interface. If the FAULT _RESPONSE is
reconfigured to remain latched off following an
overtemperature shutdown, the overtemperature latch is
reset by either cycling the input power or by toggling the
on/off pin for one millisecond.
Input Under Voltage Lockout
When Vin exceeds VIN_ON, the module output is
enabled, when Vin falls below VIN_OFF, the module
output is disabled. VIN_ON and VIN_OFF can be
reconfigured via the PMBus interface. A minimu m 2V
hysteresis between VIN_ON and VIN_OFF is required.
Input Over Voltage Lockout
The QBDW033A0B module co ntain s circ uitry to detect
and respond to input overvoltage conditions. If the
overvoltage condition causes the input voltage to rise
above the limit in the Specifications Table, the module
will shut down. The module is factory default configured
for auto-res tar t operation. The auto-restart feature
continually monitors the input voltage and will restart the
module when the level falls 7V below the
VIN_OV_FAULT level.
The VIN_OV_FAULT threshold level can be reconfigured
via the PMBus interface.
Remote On/Off (i)
The module contains a standard on/off control circuit
reference to the VIN(-) terminal. Two factory configured
remote on/off logic options are available. Positive logic
remote on/off turns the module on during a logic-high
voltage on the ON/OFF pin, and off during a logic LO .
Negative logic remote on/off turns the module off during
a logic HI, and on during a lo gic LO. Negative logic,
device code suffix "1," is the factory-preferred
configuration. The On/Off circuit is powered from an
internal bias supply, derived from the input voltage
terminals. To turn the power module on and off, the user
must supply a switch to control the voltage between the
On/Off terminal and the VIN(-) terminal (Von/off). The
switch can be an open collector or equivalent (see Figure
14). A logic LO is Von/off = -0.3V to 0.8V. The typical Ion/off
during a logic LO (Vin=48V, On/Off Terminal=0.3V) is
147µA. The switch should maintain a logic-low voltage
while sinking 310µA. During a logic HI, the maximum
Von/off generated by the power module is 8.2V. The
maximum allowable leakage current of the switch at
Von/off = 2.0V is 10µA. If using an ex ternal volt age source,
the maximum voltage Von/off on the pin is 14.5V with
respect to the VIN(-) terminal.
If not using the remote on/off feature, perfor m one of the
following to turn the unit on:
For negative logic, short ON/OFF pin to VIN(-).
For positive logic: leave ON/OFF pin open.

Feature Descr i pti ons (continued)
Load Sharing
For higher power requirements, the QBDW033A0 power
module offers an optional feature for parallel operation (-
P Option code). This feature provides a precise forced
output voltage load regulation droop characteristic. The
output set point and droop slope are fac tory calibr at ed to
insure optimum mat ch ing of multip le mod ule s’ load
regulation characteristics. To implement load sharing,
the following requirements should be followed:
The VOUT(+) and VOUT(-) pins of all parallel modules
must be connected together. Balance the trace
resistance for each module ’s p ath to the outp ut power
planes, to insure best load sharing and operating
temperature balance.
VIN must remain between 40Vdc and 75Vdc for droop
sharing to be functional.
It is permissible to use a common Remote On/Off signal
to start all modules in parallel.
These modules contain means to block reverse current
flow upon start-up, when output voltage is present from
other parallel modules, thus eliminating the requirement
for external output ORing devices. Modules with the –P
option will self determine the presence of voltage on the
output from other oper at ing m odule s, and auto mat ica lly
increase its Turn On delay, Tdelay, as specified in the
Feature Specifications Table.
When parallel modul es start up into a pre-biased output,
e.g. partially discharged output capacitance, the Trise is
automatically increased, as specified in the Feature
Specifications Table, to insure graceful startup.
Insure that the load is <50% IO,MAX (for a single module)
until all parallel modules have started (load full start >
module Tdelay time max + Trise time).
If fault tolerance is desired in parallel applications,
output ORing devices should be used to prevent a
single module fail ure fr om collapsing the load bus.
Remote Sense
Remote sense minimizes the effects of distribution
losses by regulating the voltage at the remote-sense
connections (See Figure 15). The SENSE(-) pin should
be always connected to VO().The voltage between the
remote-sense pins and the output terminals must not
exceed the output voltage sense range given in the
Feature Specifications tab le:
[VO(+) – VO(–)] – [SENSE(+) ] 0.5 V
Although the output voltage can be increased by both the
remote sense and by the trim, the maximum increase for
the output voltage is not the sum of both. The maximum
increase is the larger of either the remote sense or the
trim. The amount of power deli v ered by the module is
defined as the voltage at the output terminals multiplied
by the out put curr ent . When using remote sen se and
trim, the output volta ge of th e module can be incr eas ed,
which at the same output current, w ould incr eas e the
power output of the module. Care should be taken to
ensure that the maximum output power of the module
remains at or below the maximum rated power
(Maximum rated power = Vo,set x Io,max).

Configura b le Control Pins
The QBDW033A0B contains two configurable control
pins, T/C1 and C2, referenced to the module secondary
SIG_GND. See Mechanical Views for pin locations. The
following table list the default factory configurations for
the functions assigned to these pins. Additional
configura tio ns can be accomplished via the PMBus
command, MFR_CPIN_ARA_CONFIG. Following the
table, there is a feature description for each function.

Remote On/Off(o)
The module contains an additional remote on/off control
input On/Off(o), via either the T/C1 or C2 pin, reference
to the VO(-) terminal. The factory default configuration is
set to ignore this input, unless activated by the PMBus
command, MFR_ CPIN_ON_OFF_CONFIG. This
command is also used to configure the logic for the
On/Off(o) pin. Positive logic remote on/off turns the
module on during a logic-high voltage on the ON/OFF
pin, and off during a logic low. Negative logic remote
on/off turns the module off during a logic high, and on
during a logic low. The On/Off(o) circuit is powered from
an internal bias supply, referenced to SIG_GND. To turn
the power module on and off, the user must supply a
switch to control the voltage between the On/Off (o)
terminal and the VO(-) terminal (Von/off(o)). The switch can
be an open collector or equivalent (see Figure 13). A
logic low is Von/off(o) = -0.3V to 0.8V. The typical Ion/off(o)
during a logic low is 330µA. The switch should maintain
a logic-low voltage while sinking 250µA. During a logic
high, the maximum Von/off(o) generated by the power
module is 3.3V. The maximum allowable leakage curr en t
of the switch at Von/off(o) = 2.0V is 130µA. If using an
external voltage source, the maximum voltage Von/off on
the pin is 3.3V with respect to the Vi(-) terminal.

Power Good, PG
The QBDW033A0B module provides a Power Good
(PG) feature, which compares the module’s output
voltage to the module’s POWER_GOOD_ON and
POWER_GOOD_OFF values. These values are
adjustable via PMBus. PG is asserted when the
module’s output voltage is above the
POWER_GOOD_ON value, and PG is de-asserted if any
condition such as overtemperature, overcurrent or loss of
regulation occurs that would result in the output voltage
going below the POWER_GOOD_OFF value.
The PG signal, provided on pin C2, is implemented with
an open-drain node, pulled up via a 10kΩ resistor to
3.3V internally. For Positive Logic PG (default), the PG
signal is HI, when PG is asserted, and LO, when the PG
is de-asserted. For Negative Logic PG, the PG signal is
LO, when PG is asserted, and HI, when the PG is de-
asserted.
The PMBus command MFR_PGOOD _POLARITY is
used to set the logic polarity of the signal.
If not using the Power Good fe ature, t he pin may be
left N/C.
Trim, Output Voltage Programming
Trimming allows the output voltage set point to be
increased or decreased; this is accomplished by
connecting an external resistor between the TRIM pin
and either the VO(+) pin or the VO(-) pin.

The voltage between the Vo(+) and Vo(–) terminals must
not exceed the minimum output overvoltage protection
value shown in the Feature Specifications table. This
limit includes any increase in voltage due to remote-
sense compensation and output voltage set-point
adjustment trim.
Although the output voltage can be increased by both the
remote sense and by the trim, the maximum increase for
the output voltage is not the sum of both. The maximum
increase is the larger of either the remote sense or the
trim. The amount of power delivered by the module is
defined as the voltage at the output terminals multiplied
by the output current. When using remote sense and
trim, the output voltage of the modu le can be incr eas ed,
which at the same output current would increase the
power output of the module. Care should be taken to
ensure that the maximum output power of the module
remains at or below the maximum rated power
(Maximum rated power = VO,set x IO,max).

Thermal Considerations
The power modules operate in a variety of thermal
environments and sufficient cooling should be provided
to help ensure reliable operation.
Thermal considerations include ambient temperature,
airflow, module power dissipation, and the need for
increased reliability. A reduction in the operating
temperature of the module will result in an increase in
reliability. The thermal data presented here is based on
physical measur e me nts tak en in a wind tunnel.
Heat-dissipating components are mounted on the top
side of the module. Heat is removed by conduction,
convection and radiation to the surrounding environment.
Proper cooling can be verified by measuring the thermal
reference temperature (TH1 or TH2). Peak temperature
occurs at the position indicated in Figure 17 and 18. For
reliable operation this temperature should not exceed
TH1=125°C or TH2=105°C. For extremely high reliability
you can limit this temperature to a lower value.
.
Figure 17. Location of the thermal reference
temperature TH.
Figure 18. Location of the thermal reference
temperature TH3 for Baseplate module.
The output power of the module should not exceed the
rated power for the module as listed in the Ordering
Information table.
Please refer to the Application Note “Thermal
Characterization Process For Open-Frame Board-
Mounted Power Modules” for a detailed discussion of
thermal aspects including maximum device
temperatures.
Heat Transfer via Convection
Increased airflow over the module enhances the heat
transfer via convection. The thermal derating of figure
19- 23 shows the maximum output current that can be
delivered by each module in the indicated orientation
without exceeding the maximum THx temperature
versus local amb ient tem perat ur e (T A) for several air flow
conditions.
The use of Figure 19 is shown in the following example:

Layout Considerations
The QBDW033A0B power mo dule seri es are low
profile in order to be used in fine pitch system card
architectures. As such, component clearance
between the bottom of th e pow er module and the
mounting board is limited. Avoid placing copper
areas on the outer layer directly underneath the
power module. Also avoid placing via interconnects
underneath the power module.
For additional layout guide-lines, refer to
FLTR100V10 Data Sheet.
Through-Hole Lead-Free Soldering
Information
The RoHS-compliant, Z version, through-hole
products use the SAC (Sn/Ag/Cu) Pb-free solder and
RoHS-compliant compon ents . The non-Z version
products use lead-tin (Pb/Sn) solder and RoHS-
compliant components. Both version modules are
designed to be processed through single or dual wave
soldering machines. The pins have an RoHS-
compliant, pure t in fini sh that i s compat ib le with both
Pb and Pb-free wave soldering processes. A
maximum preheat rate of 3°C/s is suggested. The
wave preheat process should be such that the
temperature of the power module board is kept below
210°C. For Pb solder, the recommended pot
temperature is 260°C, while the Pb-free solder pot is
270°C max. Not all RoHS-compliant throu gh-hole
products can be processed with paste-through-hole
Pb or Pb-free reflow process. If additional information
is needed, please consult with your Lineage Power
representative for more details.

Storage and Ha n d ling
The recommended storage environment and handling
procedures for moisture-s en sit iv e surf ace mount
packages is detai led in J-STD-033 Rev. A (Handling,
Packing, Shipping and Use of Moisture/Reflow
Sensitive Surface Mount Devices). Moisture barrier
bags (MBB) with desiccant are required for MSL
ratings of 2 or greater. These sealed packages
should not be broken until time of use. Once the
original package is broken, the floor life of the product
at conditions of 30°C and 60% relative humidity
varies according to the MSL rating (see J-STD-033A).
The shelf life for dry packed SMT packages will be a
minimum of 12 months from the bag seal date, when
stored at the following conditions: < 40° C, < 90%
relative humidi t y .
Post Solder Cleaning and Drying
Considerations
Post solder cleaning is usually the final circuit-board
assembly process prior to electrical board testing. The
result of inadequate cleaning and drying can affect
both the reliability of a power module and the
testability of the finished circuit-board assembly. For
guidance on appropr i ate sol de r ing, cle ani ng and
drying procedures, refer to Lineage Power Board
Mounted Power Modules: Soldering and Cleaning
Application Note (AP01-056EPS).

Digital Fea ture Descriptions
PMBus Interface Capability
The QBDW033A0B series is equipped with a digital
PMBus interface to allow the module to be configured,
and communicate with system controllers. Detailed
timing and electrical characteristics of the PMBus can
be found in the PMB Power Management Protocol
Specification, Part 1, r ev isi on 1.2, available at
http://pmbus.org. The QBDW033A0B supports both
the 100kHz and 400kHz bus timing requirements. The
QBDW033A0B shall stretch the clock, as long as it
does not exceed the maximum clock LO period of
35ms. The QBDW033A0B will check the Packet Error
Checking scheme (PEC) byte, if provided by the
PMBus master, and include a PEC byte in all
responses to the master. However, the
QBDW033A0B does not require a PEC byte from the
PMBus master.
The QBDW033A0B supports a subset of the
commands in the PMBus 1.2 specification. Most all of
the controller parameters can be programmed using
the PMBus and stored as defaults for later use. All
commands that require data input or output use the
linear for mat. The exponent of the data words is fixed
at a reasonable value for the command and altering
the exponent is not supported. Direct format data
input or output is not supported by the
QBDW033A0B. The supported commands are
described in greater detail below.
The QBDW033A0B also supports the SMBALERT
response protocol. The SMBALERT response
protocol is a mechani sm throu gh which the
QBDW033A0B can alert the PMBus master that it has
an active status or alarm condition via pulling the
SMBALERT pin to an active low. The master
processes this condition, and simultaneo usly
addresses all slaves on the PMBus through the Alert
Response Address. Only the slave(s) that caused the
alert (and that sup port the protocol) acknowledges
this request. The master perform s a modified receive
byte operation to get the slave’s address. At this
point, the master can use the PMBus status
commands to query the slave that caused the alert.
Note: The QBDW033A0B can only res pon d to a
single address at any given time. Therefore, the
factory defau lt state for the QB DW033A0B mod ule is
to retain it’s resistor programmed address, when it is
in an ALERT active condition, and not respond to the
ARA. This allows master systems, which do not
support ARA, to continue to communicate with the
slave QBDW033A0B using the programmed address,
and using the various READ_STATUS commands to
determine the cause for the SMBALERT. The
CLEAR_FAULTS command will retire the active
SMBALERT. However, when the QBDW033A0B
module is used in systems that do support ARA, Bit 4
of the MFR_CPIN_ARA_CONFIG command can be
used to reconfigure the module to utilize ARA. In this
case, the QBDW033A0B will no longer respond to its
programmed address, when in an ALERT active
state. The master is expected to perform the modified
received byte operation, and retire the ALERT active
signal. At this time, the QBDW033A0B will return to
it’s resistor programmed address, allowing normal
master-slave communications to proceed. The
QBDW033A0B does not contain capability to arbitrate
data bus contention caused by multiple modules
responding to the modified received byte operation.
Therefore, when the ARA is used in a multiple module
PMBus application, it is necessary to have the
QBDW033A0B module at the lowest programmed
address in order for the host to properly determine all
modules’ address that are associated with an active
SMBAlert. Please contact your Lineage Power sales
representative for further assistance, and for more
information on the SMBus alert response protocol,
see the System Management Bus (SMBus)
specification.
The QBDW033A0B contains non-volatile me mory that
is used to store configuration settings and scale
factors. The settings progr a m med into the dev ic e are
not automatically saved into this non-volatile memory
though. The STORE_DEFAULT_ALL command must
be used to commit the current settings to non-volatile
memory as device defaults. The settings that are
capable of being st or ed in non -volatile memory are
noted in their detaile d desc ript i ons.
PMBus Addressing
The power module can be addressed through the
PMBus using a device address. The module has 64
possible addresses (0 to 63 in decimal) which can be
se t usin g res isto rs connected from the ADDR0 and
ADDR1 pins to GND. Note that some of these
addresses (0 through 12, 40, 44, 45, and 55 in
decimal) are reserved according to the SMBus
specifications and may not be useable. The address
is set in the form of two octal (0 to 7) digits, with each
pin setting one digit. The ADDR1 pin sets the high
order digit and ADDR0 sets the low order digit. The
resistor values suggested for each digit are shown in
Table 4 (1% tolerance resistors are recommended).
Note that if either address resistor value is outside the
range specified in Table 4, the module will respond to
address 127. Table 4

The user must know which I2C addresses are
reserved in a system for special functions and set the
address of the module to avoid interfering with other
system operations. Both 100kHz and 400kHz bus
speeds are supported by the module. Connection for
the PMBus interface should follow the High Power DC
specifications given in section 3.1.3 in the SMBus
specification V2.0 for the 400kHz bus speed or the
Low Power DC specifications in section 3.1.2. The
complete SMBus specification is available from the
SMBus web site, smbus.org.
PMBus Data Format
For commands that set or report any voltage
thresholds related to output voltage (including
VOUT_COMMAND, VOUT_MARGIN,
POWER_GOOD an d READ_VOUT), the module
supports the linear data format consisting of a two
byte value with a 16-bit, unsigned mantissa, a nd a
fixed exponent of -12. The format of the two data
bytes is shown below:
The value of t he num ber is the n given by
Value = Mantissa x 2-12
For commands that set all other thresholds, voltages
or report such quantities, the module suppor ts the
linear data format consisting of a two byte value with
an 11-bit, tw o’s comp lement m anti ssa and a 5-bit,
two’s complement exponent. The format of the two
data bytes is shown below:
The value is of the number is then given by
Value = Mantissa x 2 Exponent
PMBus Enabled On/Off
The module can also be turned on and off via the
PMBus interface. The OPERATION command is used
to actually turn the module on and off via the PMBus,
while the ON_OFF_CONFIG command configures the
combination of analog ON/OFF pin input and PMBus
commands needed to turn the module on and off. Bit
[7] in the OPERATION command data byte enables
the module, with the following functions:
0 : Out put is disabled

32.000 to 46.000V in 0.125V steps. VIN _ON m ust be
2.000V greater than VIN_OFF.
Both the VIN_ON and VIN_OFF commands use the
“Linear” format with two data bytes. The upper five
bits [7:3] of the high data byte form the two’s
complement representation of the exponent, which is
fixed at –3 (decimal). The remaining 11 bits are used
for two’s complement representation of the mantissa,
with the 11th bit fixed at zero since only positive
numbers are valid. The data associated with VIN_ON
and VIN_OFF can be stored to non-volatile memory
using the STORE_DEFAULT_ALL command.
PMBus Adjustable Soft Start Delay and Rise
Time
The soft start delay and rise time can be adjusted in
the module via PMBus. The TON_DELAY command
sets the delay time in ms, and allows choosing delay
times between 10ms and 500ms, with resolution of
0.5ms. The TON_RISE command sets the rise time in
ms, and allows choosi ng soft s tart time s between
15ms and 500ms, with resolution of 0.5ms. When
setting TON_RISE, make sure that the charging
current for outp ut capa cit ors c an be deliv ered by the
module in addition to any load current to avoid
nuisance tripping of the overcurrent protection
circuitry during startup. Both the TON_RISE and
TON_DELAY commands use the “Linear” format with
two data bytes. The upper five bits [7:3] of the high
data byte form the two’s complement representation
of the exponent, which is fixed at 1 (de cimal) . The
remaining 11 bits are used for two’s complement
representation of the mantissa, with the 11th bit fixed
at zero since only positive numbers are valid. The
data associated with TON_RISE and TON_DELAY
can be stored to non-volatile memory using the
STORE_DEFAULT_ALL command.
Output Voltage Adjustment Using the PMBus
The QBDW033A0B module output voltage set point is
adjusted us ing the VOUT_COMMAND. The output
voltage setting uses the Linear data format, with the
16 bits of the VOUT_COMMAND formatted as an
unsigned mantissa, and a fixed exponent of -12
(decimal) (read from VOUT_MODE).
VOUT = Mantissa x 2-12
The range limits for VOUT_COMMAND are 8.10V to
13.20V, and the resolution is 0.244 mV.
The data associated with VOUT_COMMAND can be
stored to non-volatile memory using the
STORE_DEFAULT_ALL command.
Output Voltage Margini n g Using the PMBus
The QBDW033A0B module can also have its output
voltage margined via PMBus commands. The
command VOUT_MARGIN_HIGH sets the margin
high voltage, while the command
VOUT_MARGIN_LOW sets the margin low voltage.
Both the VOUT_MARGIN_HIGH and
VOUT_MARGIN_LOW commands use the “Linear”
mode with the exponent fixed at 12 (decimal). The
data associated with VOUT_MARGIN_HIGH and
VOUT_MARGIN_LOW can be stored to non-volatile
memory using the STORE_DEFAULT_ALL
command.
The module is commanded to go to the margined high
or low voltages using the OPERATION command.
Bits [5:2] are used to enable m argin ing as foll ows:
00XX : Margin Off
0110 : Margin Low (Act on Fault)
1010 : Margin High (Act on Fault)
Measuring Output Voltage U sing the PMBus
The module can prov ide outp ut voltage information
using the READ_VOUT command. The command
returns two bytes of data in the linear format, with the
16 bits of the READ_VOUT formatted as an unsigned
mantissa, and a fixed exponent of -12 (decimal).
During module manufacture, an offset correction
value is written into the non-volatile memory of the
module to null errors in the tolerance and A/D
conversion of VOUT. The command
MFR_VOUT_READ_CAL_OFFSET can be used to
read the offset - two bytes consisting of a signed 16-
bit mantissa in two’s complement format, using a fixed
exponent of -12 (decimal). The resolution is 0.244mV.

Measuring Output Current Using the PMBus
The module measure s output current by using the
output filter inductor winding resistance as a current
sense element. The module can provide output
current information using the READ_IOUT command.
The command returns two bytes of data in the linear
format. The upper five bits [7:3] of the high data byte
form the two’s complement representation of the
exponent, which is fixed at 4 (decimal). The
remaining 11 bits are used for two’s complement
representation of the mantissa, with the 11th bit fixed
at zero since only positive numbers are valid. Output
current readings are blanked below 1.65A.
During module man ufa cture , offset and gai n
correction values are written into the non-volatile
memory of the module to null errors in the tolerance
and A/D conversion of IOUT. The command
MFR_IOUT_CAL_OFFSE T can be used to read the
offset - two bytes consisting of a five-bit exponent
(fixed at -4) and a 11-bit mantissa in two’s
complement format. The resolution is 62.5mA. The
command MFR_IOUT_CAL_GAIN can be used to
read the gain correction - two bytes consisting of a
unsigned 16 bit number. The resolution of this
correctio n factor 0.00 0122. The READ_IOUT
command provides module average output current
information. This command only supports positive
current sourced from the module. If the converter is
sinking current a reading of 0 is provided.

Measuring the Temperature using the PMBus
The module can prov ide tem p er ature infor ma tion
using the READ_TEMPERATURE_1 command. The
command returns two bytes of data in the linear
format. The upper five bits [7:3] of the high data byte
form the two’s complement representation of the
exponent, which is fixed at –2 (decimal). The
remaining 11 bits are used for two’s complement
representation of the mantissa.
Note that the module’s temperature sensor is located
close to the module hot spot TH1 (see Thermal
Considerations).and is subjected to temperatures
higher than the ambient air temperature near the
module. The temperature reading will be highly
influenced by module load and airflow conditions.
