Summary
The IMY 35 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.
With a total input voltage range from 60...150 V, the units
are available with double and quadruple outputs, electrically isolated, from 5 V up to 60 V externally adjustable and
with flexible load distribution. A shut down 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 60950, UL 1950, CAN/
CSA C22.2 No.950-95. LGA, UL and cUL approvals are in
progress.

The circuit comprises of two planar magnetics devices and
all components are automatically assembled and solidly
soldered onto a single PCB 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 a reality. The thermal design without using any potting material allows operation at full load up to an ambient temperature of 71°C in free
air. For extremely high vibration environments the case has
holes for screw mounting. Various options as e.g. extended
temperature range –40...85°C or an alternative pinout provide a high level of application specific engineering and design-in flexibility.

DC-DC Converters
IMY 35 Series
Functional Description
The IMY 35 family of DC-DC converters consists of two
feedback controlled interleaved switching flyback power
trains using current mode PWM (pulse width modulation).
Functionally the converters are of two main types. The dual
output types consist of two electrically isolated outputs Vo1,
Vo2. Vo1 and Vo2 derives from two power trains and are
electrically isolated. Voltage regulation for each output is
achieved with passive transformer feedback from the main
transformer of each power train. Adjustment of the outputs
voltages in the range of 80...105% of Uo nom is possible via
Trim input on the primary side (See: Block diagram, dual
output types.)
The quadruple output type consists of 4 outputs and two
power trains. Vo1, Vo4 derive from the first power train 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 each power train.
Each pair of outputs are restricted to being of the same output voltage type (i.e. D05, D12, etc.). If both power trains
have the same output voltage, all outputs may be adjusted
by means of the Trim input. (In case of different output voltages, the Trim1 input influences only Vo1 and Vo4. See:
Block diagram, quadruple output types.)
Current limitation is provided by the primary circuit for each
power train 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 less
than typically 60% of Uo nom , the entire converter will shut
down and automatically restart in short intervals.
Overtemperature protection is provided for each power
train which will shut down the converter in excessive overload conditions with automatic restart approximately in
short intervals.

Inrush current
Input Transient Voltage Protection
The inrush current has been kept as low as possible by
choosing a very small input capacitance. A series resistor
may be installed in the input line to further reduce this current.
A built-in suppressor diode provides effective protection
against input transients which may be caused for example
by short-circuits accross the input lines where the network
inductance may cause high energy pulses.

For very high energy transients as for example to achieve
IEC/EN 61000-4-5 or ETR 283 (19 Pfl1) compliance (as per
table: Electromagnetic Immunity) an external inductor and
capacitor are required. The components should have similar characteristics as listed in table: Components for external circuitry for IEC/EN 61000-4-5, level 2 or ETR 283
(19Pfl1) compliance.

Thermal Considerations
Output Overvoltage Protection
If a converter, mounted on a PCB, is located in free, quasistationary 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 measured at
the Measuring point of case temperature TC (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.
The outputs of the converter are protected against overvoltages by a second control loop. In the event of an overvoltage on one of the outputs the unit will shut down and
attempt to restart in short intervals. The main purpose of
this feature is to protect against possible overvoltages
which could occur due to a failure in the feedback control
circuit. The overvoltage protection is not designed to withstand externally applied overvoltages.
Caution: The case temperature TC measured at the:
Measuring point of case temperature TC (see: Mechanical Data) may under no circumstances exceed the
specified maximum value. The installer must ensure that
under all operating conditions TC remains within the limits stated in the table: Temperature specifications.
Short Circuit Behaviour
The current limit characteristic shuts down the converter
whenever a short circuit is applied to an output. It acts selfprotecting and automatically recovers after removal of the
overload condition (hiccup mode).
Overtemperature Protection
The converters individual power trains are protected
against possible overheating by means of an internal temperature monitoring circuit. It shuts down the unit above the
internal temperature limit and attempts to automatically restart. This feature prevents from excessive internal temperature building up which could occur under heavy overload conditions.
Typical Performance Curves
General conditions:
– TA = 25 oC, unless TC is specified.

Shut Down Function
a) Adjustment by means of an external resistor Rext:
The outputs of the converters may be enabled or disabled
by means of a logic signal (TTL, CMOS, etc.) applied to the
shut down pin. If the shut down function is not required then
it should be left open-circuit.

Programmable Input Undervoltage Lockout PUL
A special feature of these units is the accurate undervoltage
lockout protection which protects the units (and system)
from large currents caused by operation at low voltages.
This ensures easier start-up in distributed power systems.

simultaneously. Both power trains have passive transformer feedback and the Trim input (pin 5) is referenced to
the primary side. Fig. 16 shows the circuit topology. Adjustment of the output voltage is possible by means of either an
external resistor Rext in the range of 100...105% of Uo nom or

frequency is internally divided by 2 to define the switching
frequency for the converter. If unused, this pin can be connected to V1– (pin 2) or left open-circuit.

This option provides a stable 5 V (±0.2 V) reference signal
on pin Ref. It is protected by a 1.33 kΩ resistor. This may be
used also in conjunction with the Trim input pin 5 (primary
side) as a limited external voltage reference. We recommend to connect a filter capacitor (0.1 µF) between Ref and
Vi–, if Vref is used.

The protection degree of the DC-DC converters is IP 30
(not for option Z).
In order to avoid possible damage, any penetration of
cleaning fluids should be prevented, since the power supplies are not hermetically sealed.

Safety of operator accessible output circuit
If the output circuit of a DC-DC converter is operator accessible, it shall be an SELV circuit according to the IEC/EN
60950 related safety standards
The following table shows some possible installation configurations, compliance with which causes the output circuit
of the DC-DC converter to be an SELV circuit according to
IEC/EN 60950 up to a configured output voltage (sum of
nominal voltages if in series or +/– configuration) of 42 V.
However, it is the sole responsibility of the installer to ensure the compliance with the relevant and applicable safety
regulations. More information is given in: Technical Information: Safety.

Extension of the temperature range from standard

the output power derating below should be observed. The
modules will provide the specified ouptut power with free air
convection cooling.
The output of the converter may be enabled or disabled by
means of a logic signal (TTL, CMOS, etc.) applied to the
inhibit pin. No output voltage overshoot will occur when the
unit is turned on. If the inhibit function is not required the
inhibit (pin 8) should be connected to Vi– to enable the output (active low logic, fail safe).
