IMX35 Series
35 Watt Quad-Output DC-DC Converter
Description
The IMX35 Series of board-mountable, 35 Watt DC-DC converters has been designed according to the latest industry requirements
and standards. The converters are particularly suitable for use in mobile or stationary applications in transport, railways, industry,
or telecommunication, where variable input voltages or high transient voltages are prevalent.
Covering a total input voltage range from 9 V up to 150 V with 4 different models, the converters are available with up to four
electrically isolated outputs from 5 V to 60 V, externally adjustable and with flexible load distribution. A shutdown input allows
remote converter on/off. Features include consistently high efficiency over the entire input voltage range, high reliability, and
excellent dynamic response to load and line changes.
The converters are designed and built according to the international safety standards IEC/EN 62368-1 3rd edition, and approved
by Nemko. The converters provide basic insulation.
The circuit is comprised of 2 planar magnetics devices, and all components are automatically assembled and securely soldered
onto a single PCB board without any wire connection. Magnetic feedback ensures maximum reliability and repeatability in the
control loop over all operating conditions. Careful considerations of possible thermal stresses ensure the absence of hot spots
providing long life in environments, where temperature cycles are present. The thermal design without using any potting material
allows operation at full load up to an ambient temperature of 71 °C in free air and operation up to 105 °C with airflow. For extremely
high vibration environments the case has holes for screw mounting.

Functional Description
The IMX35 converters are comprised of 2 feedback-controlled interleaved-switching flyback powertrains using current mode control.
Each converter consists of 4 electrically isolated outputs deriving from the 2 power trains. Vo1, Vo4 derive from the first powertrain
and Vo2, Vo3 from the second one. Thus each pair of outputs is independent from the other one.
Voltage regulation for each pair of outputs is achieved with passive transformer feedback from the main transformer of the powertrain.
Each pair of outputs has the same output voltage (i.e. D05, D12, etc.). If both powertrains have the same nominal output voltage (e.g.
D12D12), all outputs may be simultaneously adjusted by the Trim input (pin 5). In case of different output voltages (e.g. D05D15), the
Trim1 input influences only Vo1 and Vo4.
Current limitation is provided on the primary side for each powertrain and limits the possible output power for each pair of outputs. In
the case of an overload on either of the power trains, which causes the output voltage to fall to less than typically 70% of Vo nom, the
entire converter shuts down and automatically restart in short intervals (hiccup mode).
The incorporated overtemperature protection shuts down the hole converter in the case of overtemperature and resumes automatically
after cooling down.

Reverse Polarity Protection
The built-in suppressor diode also provides for reverse polarity protection at the input by conducting current in the reverse
direction. An external fuse is required to limit this current.

IMX35 Series
35 Watt Quad-Output DC-DC Converter
Thermal Considerations
If a converter, mounted on a PCB, is located in free, quasi-stationary air (convection cooling) at the indicated maximum ambient
temperature TA max (see table Temperature specifications) and is operated at its nominal input voltage and output power, the case
temperature TC (TC Z with option Z) measured at the measuring point of case temperature (see Mechanical Data) will approach the
indicated value TC max after the warm-up phase. However, the relationship between TA and TC depends heavily on the conditions of
operation and integration into a system. The thermal conditions are influenced by input voltage, output current, airflow, temperature
of surrounding components and the surfaces and properties of the printed circuit board. TA max is therefore only an indicative value,
and under practical operating conditions, the ambient temperature TA may be higher or lower than this value.
Caution: The case temperature TC (or TC Z) measured at the measuring point of case temperature (see Mechanical Data) may under no
circumstances exceed the specified maximum value. The installer must ensure that under all operating conditions TC (or TC Z) remains within
the limits stated in the table Temperature specifications.
The converters provide the specified output power with free air convection cooling. In the upper temperature range the output
power derating below should be observed.

Overtemperature Protection
The converter is protected against possible overheating by means of an internal temperature monitoring circuit located on the
primary side. It shuts down the converter above the internal temperature limit and attempts to restart automatically. This feature
prevents excessive internal temperature building up which could occur under overload conditions.
Short Circuit Behavior
The current limit characteristic shuts down the converter whenever a short circuit is applied to an output. It acts self-protecting and
automatically recovers after removal of the overload condition (hiccup mode).

Both outputs of the same powertrain can always be connected in parallel in will behave like a single output.
Several outputs of the same converter with equal output voltage (e.g. 5 V / 5 V) can be connected in parallel and will share their
output currents almost equally.
If outputs of the same converter are being parallel and series-connected, it is recommended that outputs from the same powertrains
are parallel-connected first. This applies for instance, if 24 V shall be generated by a converter with four 12 V outputs; see fig. 7.

Note: Parallel operation of several converters may cause start-up problems. This becomes noticeable in applications, where one converter is
not able to deliver the full resistive and capacitive load current alone, as it is required in true redundant systems.

35 Watt Quad-Output DC-DC Converter
Auxiliary Functions
Adjustable Output Voltage
As a standard feature, the IMX35 offer adjustable output voltages in the range of 85 to 105% of Vo nom. Fig. 13 shows the schematic
diagram for the adjustment of quad-output models.
All models with equal output voltages have a Trim input at pin 5 referenced to the primary side, influencing all outputs simultaneously.
Models with different output voltages exhibit a Trim1 input, influencing only the first power train (Vo1 and Vo4).

Adjustment of the output voltage by means of an external resistor Rext is possible within the range of 100 to 105% of Vo nom. Rext
should be connected between Trim (pin 5) and Vi– (pin 2). The following table indicates suitable resistor values for typical output
voltages under nominal conditions (Vi nom, Io = 0.5 Io nom).
Note: Connection of Rext to Vi+ may damage the converter.
Adjustment by means of an external voltage source Vext
For external output voltage adjustment in the range 85 to 105% of Vo nom a voltage source Vext (0 to 20 V) is required, connected to
Trim or Trim1 (pin 5) and Vi–. The table below indicates typical values Vo versus Vext. Applying a control voltage of 15 to 20 V will
set the converter into the hiccup mode. Direct paralleling of the Trim pins of converters of the same type connected in parallel is
feasible.
Synchronization (W)
It is possible to synchronize the switching frequency of one or more converters to an external clock signal.
This logic input W can be used to synchronize the oscillator to an external frequency source. This signal is edge-triggered with TTL
thresholds and requires a source frequency of 440 to 480 kHz (duty cycle 10 to 90%). The external source frequency is internally
divided by 2 to define the switching frequency of the converter. If unused, this pin can be connected to V1– (pin 2) or left open-circuit.
Reference Output (Ref)
The converter provides a stable 5 V (±0.1 V) reference signal on pin 7 (Ref). The output is protected by a 1 kΩ resistor. The signal
may be used also in conjunction with the Trim input (pin 5) as a limited external voltage reference.
It is recommended to connect a filter capacitor (0 .1 µF) between Ref and Vi–, if Ref is used.

Shutdown
The outputs of the converters may be enabled or disabled by means of a logic signal (TTL, CMOS, etc.) applied to shutdown (pin 8).
If the shutdown function is not required, pin 8 should be left open-circuit:
Converter operating:
Converter disabled:
2.0 to 20 V
–10 to +0 .7 V
Progr. Input Undervoltage Lockout PUL
A special feature of the converter (with Rev. BA or later) is the adjustable undervoltage lockout protection, which protects the
converter (and the system) from high current caused by operation at low input voltages. This ensures easier start-up in distributed
power systems.
The table below shows the band of switch on/off and the hysteresis.
