An input line fuse must always be used. This encapsulated power module can be used in a wide variety of applications, ranging from simple stand-alone operation to an integrated part of a 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 normal-blow fuse with a maximum rating of 3 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. Refer to the fuse manufacturer's data for further information. 2 Lineage Power Data Sheet April 2008 QW050F1 and QW075F1 Power Modules: dc-dc Converters; 36 to 75 Vdc Input, 3.3 Vdc Output; 33 W to 50 W Electrical Specifications (continued) Table 2.

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. The power module should be connected to a low ac-impedance input source. Highly inductive source impedances can affect the stability of the power module. For the test configuration in Figure 13, a 33 F electrolytic capacitor (ESR < 0.7 3/4 at 100 kHz) mounted close to the power module helps ensure stability of the unit. For other highly inductive source impedances, 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-use safety agency standard, i.e., UL1950, CSA C22.2 No. 950-95, and VDE 0805 (EN60950, IEC950). If the input source is non-SELV (ELV or a hazardous voltage greater than 60 Vdc and less than or equal to 75 Vdc), for the module's output to be considered meeting the requirements of safety extra-low voltage (SELV), all of the following must be true: n n Figure 14. Peak-to-Peak Output Noise Measurement Test Setup n SENSE(+) VI(+) CONTACT AND DISTRIBUTION LOSSES VO(+) IO II LOAD SUPPLY VI(-) CONTACT RESISTANCE VO(-) SENSE(-) 8-749 (C) 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 resistance. [ V O (+) - V O (-) ]I O = ------------------------------------------------ x 100 [ V I (+) - V I (-) ]I I % n The input source is to be provided with reinforced insulation from any hazardous voltages, including the ac mains. One VI pin and one VO 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, as required by the safety agencies, on the combination of supply source and the subject module 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 pin and ground. The power module has extra-low voltage (ELV) outputs when all inputs are ELV. The input to these units is to be provided with a maximum 3 A normal-blow fuse in the ungrounded lead. Figure 15. Output Voltage and Efficiency Measurement Test Setup 8 Lineage Power Data Sheet April 2008 QW050F1 and QW075F1 Power Modules: dc-dc Converters; 36 to 75 Vdc Input, 3.3 Vdc Output; 33 W to 50 W Feature Descriptions Ion/off Overcurrent Protection To provide protection in a fault (output overload) condition, the unit is equipped with internal current-limiting circuitry and can endure current limiting for up to one second. If overcurrent exists for more than one second, the unit will shut down. At the point of current-limit inception, the unit shifts from voltage control to current control. If the output voltage is pulled very low during a severe fault, the currentlimit circuit can exhibit either foldback or tailout characteristics (output current decrease or increase). The module is available in two overcurrent configurations. In one configuration, when the unit shuts down it will latch off. The overcurrent latch is reset by either cycling the input power or by toggling the ON/OFF pin for one second. In the other configuration, the unit will try to restart after shutdown. If the output overload condition still exists when the unit restarts, it will shut down again. This operation will continue indefinitely until the overcurrent condition is corrected. Remote On/Off Negative logic remote on/off turns the module off during a logic high and on during a logic low. 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 VI(-) terminal (Von/off). The switch can be an open collector or equivalent (see Figure 16). A logic low is Von/off = 0 V to 1.2 V. The maximum Ion/off during a logic low is 1 mA. The switch should maintain a logiclow voltage while sinking 1 mA. During a logic high, the maximum Von/off generated by the power module is 15 V. The maximum allowable leakage current of the switch at Von/off = 15 V is 50 A.

Remote On/Off Implementation Remote Sense Remote sense minimizes the effects of distribution losses by regulating the voltage at the remote-sense connections. The voltage between the remote-sense pins and the output terminals must not exceed the output voltage sense range given in the Feature Specifications table, i.e.: [VO(+) - VO(-)] - [SENSE(+) - SENSE(-)] 0.5 V 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 setpoint adjustment (trim). See Figure 17. If not using the remote-sense feature to regulate the output at the point of load, then connect SENSE(+) to VO(+) and SENSE(-) to VO(-) at the module. 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. Consult the factory if you need to increase the output voltage more than the above limitation. 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 module can be increased, 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.

Figure 25 shows the maximum power that can be dissipated by the module without exceeding the maximum case temperature versus local ambient temperature (TA) for natural convection through 4 m/s (800 ft./min.). Note that the natural convection condition was measured at 0.05 m/s to 0.1 m/s (10 ft./min. to 20 ft./min.); however, systems in which these power modules may be used typically generate natural convection airflow rates of 0.3 m/s (60 ft./min.) due to other heat dissipating components in the system.

The mounting torque must not exceed 0.56 N-m (5 in.-lb.). For a screw attachment from the pin side, the recommended hole size on the customer's PWB around the mounting holes is 0.130 0.005 inches. If a larger hole is used, the mounting torque from the pin side must not exceed 0.25 N-m (2.2 in.-lbs.). Thermal derating with heat sinks is expressed by using the overall thermal resistance of the module. Total module thermal resistance (ca) is defined as the maximum case temperature rise (TC, max) divided by the module power dissipation (PD): 11 10 CASE-TO-AMBIENT THERMAL RESISTANCE, CA (C/W) Figure 25.

Case-to-ambient thermal resistance vs. airflow is shown, for various heat sink configurations and heights, in Figures 26 and 27. Longitudinal orientation is defined as the long axis of the module that is parallel to the airflow direction, whereas in the transverse orientation, the long axis is perpendicular to the airflow. These curves were obtained by experimental testing of heat sinks, which are offered in the product catalog.

Heat Sink Power Derating Curves; 1.0 m/s (200 lfm); Longitudinal Orientation These measured resistances are from heat transfer from the sides and bottom of the module as well as the top side with the attached heat sink; therefore, the case-to-ambient thermal resistances shown are generally lower than the resistance of the heat sink by itself. The module used to collect the data in Figures 26 and 27 had a thermal-conductive dry pad between the case and the heat sink to minimize contact resistance. The use of Figures 26 and 27 are shown in the following example. Lineage Power Data Sheet April 2008 QW050F1 and QW075F1 Power Modules: dc-dc Converters; 36 to 75 Vdc Input, 3.3 Vdc Output; 33 W to 50 W Thermal Considerations (continued) Custom Heat Sinks Heat Transfer with Heat Sinks (continued) A more detailed model can be used to determine the required thermal resistance of a heat sink to provide necessary cooling. The total module resistance can be separated into a resistance from case-to-sink (cs) and sink-to-ambient (sa) as shown in Figure 32. Example If an 85 C case temperature is desired, what is the minimum airflow necessary? Assume the QW075F1 module is operating at VI = 54 V and an output current of 10 A, transverse orientation, maximum ambient air temperature of 40 C, and the heat sink is 1/2 inch. Solution PD TC TS cs TA sa 8-1304 (C) Given: VI = 54 V IO = 10 A TA = 40 C TC = 85 C Heat sink = 1/2 inch Determine PD by using Figure 24: PD = 8.8 W Then solve the following equation: ( TC - TA ) ca = ----------------------PD 85 - 40 ) ca = (----------------------8.8 ca = 5.1 C/W Use Figure 26 to determine air velocity for the 1/2 inch heat sink. The minimum airflow necessary for the QW050F1 module is 0.4 m/s (70 ft./min.). Note: Pending improvement will lower the power dissipation and reduce the airflow needed. Figure 32. Resistance from Case-to-Sink and Sink-to-Ambient For a managed interface using thermal grease or foils, a value of cs = 0.1 C/W to 0.3 C/W is typical. The solution for heat sink resistance is: (TC - TA) sa = ------------------------ - cs PD This equation assumes that all dissipated power must be shed by the heat sink. Depending on the userdefined application environment, a more accurate model, including heat transfer from the sides and bottom of the module, can be used. This equation provides a conservative estimate for such instances. EMC Considerations For assistance with designing for EMC compliance, please refer to the FLTR100V10 data sheet (DS99-294EPS). Layout Considerations Copper paths must not be routed beneath the power module mounting inserts. For additional layout guidelines, refer to the FLTR100V10 data sheet (DS99-294EPS).
