This integrated circuit can be damaged by ESD. Texas Instruments recommends that all integrated circuits be handled with
appropriate precautions. Failure to observe proper handling and installation procedures can cause damage.
ESD damage can range from subtle performance degradation to complete device failure. Precision integrated circuits may be more
susceptible to damage because very small parametric changes could cause the device not to meet its published specifications.

SLTS288C – JUNE 2007 – REVISED OCTOBER 2010
PIN DESCRIPTIONS
+VI: The positive input for the module with respect to –VI. When powering the module from a –48-V telecom
central office supply, this input is connected to the primary system ground.
–VI: The negative input supply for the module, and the 0 VDC reference for the Remote On/Off input. When
powering the module from a +48-V supply, this input is connected to the 48-V return.
Remote On/Off: This input controls the On/Off status of the output voltage. It is either driven low (–VI potential),
or left open-circuit. For units identified with the NEN option, applying a logic low to this pin will enable the output.
And for units identified with the PEN option, the output will be disabled.
VO Adjust: Allows the output voltage to be trimmed by up or down between +10% and –20% of its nominal
value. The adjustment method uses a single external resistor. Connecting the resistor between VO Adjust and
–VO adjusts the output voltage lower, and placing it between VO Adjust and +VO adjusts the output higher. The
calculations for the resistance value follows industry standard formulas. For further information consult the
application note on output voltage adustment.
+VO: The positive power output with respect to –VO, which is DC isolated from the input supply pins. If a negative
output voltage is desired, +VO should be connected to the secondary circuit common and the output taken from
–VO.
–VO: The negative power output with respect to +VO, which is DC isolated from the input supply pins. This output
is normally connected to the secondary circuit common when a positive output voltage is desired.
Sense(+): Provides the converter with an output sense capability to regulate the set-point voltage directly at the
load. When used with Sense(-), the regulation circuitry will compensate for voltage drop between the converter
and the load. The pin may be left open circuit, but connecting it to +VO will improve load regulation.
Sense(–): Provides the converter with an output sense capability when used in conjunction with Sense(+) input.
For optimum output voltage accuracy this pin should always be connected to –VO.

APPLICATION INFORMATION
Operating Features and System Considerations for the PTEA Series of DC/DC Converters
Overcurrent Protection
To protect against load faults, these converters incorporate output overcurrent protection. Applying a load to the
output that exceeds the converter's overcurrent threshold (see applicable specification) will cause the output
voltage to momentarily fold back, and then shut down. Following shutdown the module will periodically attempt to
automatically recover by initiating a soft-start power-up. This is often described as a hiccup mode of operation,
whereby the module continues in the cycle of successive shutdown and power up until the load fault is removed.
Once the fault is removed, the converter automatically recovers and returns to normal operation.
Output Overvoltage Protection
Each converter incorporates protection circuitry that continually senses for an output overvoltage (OV) condition.
The OV threshold is set approximately 20% higher than the nominal output voltage. If the converter output
voltage exceeds this threshold, the converter is immediately shut down and remains in a latched-off state. To
resume normal operation the converter must be actively reset. This can only be done by momentarily removing
the input power to the converter. For fail-safe operation and redundancy, the OV protection uses circuitry that is
independent of the converter’s internal feedback loop.
Overtemperature Protection
Overtemperature protection is provided by an internal temperature sensor, which closely monitors the
temperature of the converter’s printed circuit board (PCB). If the sensor exceeds a temperature of approximately
105°C, the converter will shut down. The converter will then automatically restart when the sensed temperature
drops back to approximately 95°C. When operated outside its recommended thermal derating envelope (see
data sheet SOA curves), the converter will typcially cycle on and off at intervals from a few seconds to one or two
minutes. This is to ensure that the internal components are not permanently damaged from excessive thermal
stress.
Undervoltage Lockout
The Undervoltage lockout (UVLO) is designed to prevent the operation of the converter until the input voltage is
at the minimum input voltage. This prevents high start-up current during normal power-up of the converter, and
minimizes the current drain from the input source during low input voltage conditions. The UVLO circuitry also
overrides the operation of the Remote On/Off control.
Primary-Secondary Isolation
These converters incorporate electrical isolation between the input terminals (primary) and the output terminals
(secondary). All converters are production tested to a withstand voltage of 1500 VDC. This specification complies
with UL60950 and EN60950 requirements. This allows the converter to be configured for either a positive or
negative input voltage source. The data sheet Pin Descriptions section provides guidance as to the correct
reference that must be used for the external control signals.
Input Current Limiting
The converter is not internally fused. For safety and overall system protection, the maximum input current to the
converter must be limited. Active or passive current limiting can be used. Passive current limiting can be a fast
acting fuse. A 125-V fuse, rated no more than 10 A, is recommended. Active current limiting can be implemented
with a current limited Hot-Swap controller.
Thermal Considerations
Airflow may be necessary to ensure that the module can supply the desired load current in environments with
elevated ambient temperatures. The required airflow rate may be determined from the Safe Operating Area
(SOA) thermal derating chart (see typical characteristics).

SLTS288C – JUNE 2007 – REVISED OCTOBER 2010
Differential Remote Sense
The remote sense pins allows the converter to precisely regulate the DC output voltage at a remote location.
This might be a power plane on an inner layer of the host PCB. Connecting Sense(+) directly to +VO , and
Sense(–) to –VO will improve output voltage accuracy. In the event that the sense pins are left open-circuit, an
internal 100-Ω (S+) or 10-Ω (S–) resistor between each sense pin and its corresponding output prevents an
excessive rise in the output voltage. For practical reasons, the amount of IR voltage compensation should be
limited to 0.5 V maximum.
The remote sense feature is designed to compensate for limited amounts of IR voltage drop. It is not intended to
compensate for the forward drop of a non-linear or frequency dependent components that may be placed in
series with the converter output. Examples of such components include OR-ing diodes, filter inductors, ferrite
beads, and fuses. Enclosing these components with the remote sense connections effectively places them inside
the regulation control loop, which can affect the stability of the regulator.
Using the Remote On/Off Function on the PTEA Series of DC/DC Converters
For applications requiring output voltage On/Off control, the PTEA series of DC/DC converters incorporate a
Remote On/Off control (pin 2). This feature can be used to switch the module off without removing the applied
input source voltage. When placed in the Off state, the standby current drawn from the input source is typically
reduced to 3 mA.
Negative Output Enable (NEN)
Models using the negative enable option, the Remote On/Off (pin 2) control must be driven to a logic low voltage
for the converter to produce an output. This is accomplished by either permanently connecting pin 2 to –VI (pin
3), or driving it low with an external control signal. Table 2 shows the input requirements of pin 2 for those
modules with the NEN option.

For those models with the positive enable (PEN) option, leaving pin 2 open circuit, (or driving it to an equivalent
logic high voltage), will enable the converter output. This allows the module to produce an output voltage
whenever a valid input source voltage is applied to +VI with respect to –VI. If a logic-low signal is then applied to
pin 2 the converter output is disabled. Table 3 gives the input requirements of pin 2 for modules with the PEN
option.

Notes:
1. The Remote On/Off control uses –VI (pin 3) as its ground reference. All voltages are with respect to –VI.
2. An open-collector device (preferably a discrete transistor) is recommended. A pull-up resistor is not required.
If one is added the pull-up voltage should not exceed 20 V.
Caution: Do not use a pull-resistor to +VI (pin 1). The remote On/Off control has a maximum input voltage of
20 V. Exceeding this voltage will overstress, and possibly damage, the converter.
3. The Remote On/Off pin may be controlled with devices that have a totem-pole output. This is provided the
output high level voltage (VOH) meets the module's minimum VIH specified in Table 2. If a TTL gate is used, a
pull-up resistor may be required to the logic supply voltage.
4. The converter incorporates an undervoltage lockout (UVLO). The UVLO keeps the converter off until the
input voltage is close to the minimum specified operating voltage. This is regardless of the state of the
Remote On/Off control. Consult the product specification for the UVLO input voltage thresholds.

Turn-On: With a valid input source voltage applied, the converter produces a regulated output voltage within 75
ms of the output being enabled. Figure 10 shows the output response of the PTEA420033P following the
removal of the logic-low signal from the Remote On/Off (pin 2); see Figure 9. This corresponds to the drop in Q1
VGS in Figure 10. Although the rise-time of the output voltage is short (
