The QME48T40 DC-DC Series of converters provide outstanding thermal
performance in high temperature environments. This performance is
accomplished through the use of patented/patent-pending circuits,
packaging, and processing techniques to achieve ultra-high efficiency,
excellent thermal management, and a low-body profile.
The low-body profile and the preclusion of heat sinks minimize impedance to
system airflow, thus enhancing cooling for both upstream and downstream
devices. The use of 100% automation for assembly, coupled with advanced
electronic circuits and thermal design, results in a product with extremely high
reliability.
Operating from a 36-75 V input, the QME48T40 converters provide any
standard output voltage from 3.3 V down to 1.0 V that can be trimmed from –
20% to +10% of the nominal output voltage (±10% for output voltages 1.2 V
and 1.0 V), thus providing outstanding design flexibility.

2.1
These power converters have been designed to be stable with no external capacitors when used in low inductance input
and output circuits.
In many applications, the inductance associated with the distribution from the power source to the input of the converter
can affect the stability of the converter. The addition of a 33 µF electrolytic capacitor with an ESR < 1 Ω across the input
helps to ensure stability of the converter. In many applications, the user has to use decoupling capacitance at the load. The
power converter will exhibit stable operation with external load capacitance up to 40,000 µF on 3.3 V – 1.0 V outputs.
Additionally, see the EMC section of this data sheet for discussion of other external components which may be required for
control of conducted emissions.
2.2
The ON/OFF pin is used to turn the power converter on or off remotely via a system signal. There are two remote control
options available, positive and negative logic, with both referenced to Vin(-). A typical connection is shown in Fig. 1.

Figure 1. Circuit configuration for ON/OFF function.
The positive logic version turns on when the ON/OFF pin is at a logic high and turns off when at a logic low. The converter
is on when the ON/OFF pin is left open. See the Electrical Specifications for logic high/low definitions.
The negative logic version turns on when the pin is at a logic low and turns off when the pin is at a logic high. The ON/OFF
pin can be hardwired directly to Vin(-) to enable automatic power up of the converter without the need of an external control
signal.
The ON/OFF pin is internally pulled up to 5 V through a resistor. A properly debounced mechanical switch, open-collector
transistor, or FET can be used to drive the input of the ON/OFF pin. The device must be capable of sinking up to 0.2 mA at
a low level voltage of 0.8 V. An external voltage source (±20 V maximum) may be connected directly to the ON/OFF input,
in which case it must be capable of sourcing or sinking up to 1 mA depending on the signal polarity. See the Startup
Information section for system timing waveforms associated with use of the ON/OFF pin.
2.3
The remote sense feature of the converter compensates for voltage drops occurring between the output pins of the converter
and the load. The SENSE(-) (Pin 5) and SENSE(+) (Pin 7) pins should be connected at the load or at the point where regulation
is required (see Fig. 2).

CAUTION
If remote sensing is not utilized, the SENSE(-) pin must be connected to the Vout(-) pin (Pin 4), and the SENSE(+) pin
must be connected to the Vout(+) pin (Pin 8) to ensure the converter will regulate at the specified output voltage. If
these connections are not made, the converter will deliver an output voltage that is slightly higher than the specified
data sheet value.
Because the sense leads carry minimal current, large traces on the end-user board are not required. However, sense traces
should be run side by side and located close to a ground plane to minimize system noise and ensure optimum performance.
The converter’s output overvoltage protection (OVP) senses the voltage across Vout(+) and Vout(-), and not across the sense
lines, so the resistance (and resulting voltage drop) between the output pins of the converter and the load should be
minimized to prevent unwanted triggering of the OVP.
When utilizing the remote sense feature, care must be taken not to exceed the maximum allowable output power capability
of the converter, which is equal to the product of the nominal output voltage and the allowable output current for the given
conditions.
When using remote sense, the output voltage at the converter can be increased by as much as 10% above the nominal
rating in order to maintain the required voltage across the load. Therefore, the designer must, if necessary, decrease the
maximum current (originally obtained from the derating curves) by the same percentage to ensure the converter’s actual
output power remains at or below the maximum allowable output power.
2.4
The output voltage can be adjusted up 10% or down 20% for Vout ≥ 1.5 V, and ±10% for Vout = 1.2 V and 1.0 V relative to
the rated output voltage by the addition of an externally connected resistor.
The TRIM pin should be left open if trimming is not being used. To minimize noise pickup, a 0.1 µF capacitor is connected
internally between the TRIM and SENSE(-) pins.
To increase the output voltage, refer to Fig. 3. A trim resistor, RT-INCR, should be connected between the TRIM (Pin 6) and
SENSE(+) (Pin 7), with a value of:

Trimming/sensing beyond 110% of the rated output voltage is not an acceptable design practice, as this condition could
cause unwanted triggering of the output overvoltage protection (OVP) circuit. The designer should ensure that the difference
between the voltages across the converter’s output pins and its sense pins does not exceed 10% of VOUT(nom), or:
[VOUT() VOUT()] [VSENSE() VSENSE()] VO - NOM X10%

Input under voltage lockout is standard with this converter. The converter will shut down when the input voltage drops below
a pre-determined voltage.
The input voltage must be typically 34 V for the converter to turn on. Once the converter has been turned on, it will shut off
when the input voltage drops typically below 32 V. This feature is beneficial in preventing deep discharging of batteries used
in telecom applications.
The converter is protected against overcurrent or short circuit conditions. Upon sensing an overcurrent condition, the
converter will switch to constant current operation and thereby begin to reduce output voltage. When the output voltage
drops below 60% of the nominal value of output voltage, the converter will shut down.
Once the converter has shut down, it will attempt to restart nominally every 200 ms with a typical 3-5% duty cycle. The
attempted restart will continue indefinitely until the overload or short circuit conditions are removed or the output voltage
rises above 40-50% of its nominal value.
Once the output current is brought back into its specified range, the converter automatically exits the hiccup mode and
continues normal operation.
The converter will shut down if the output voltage across Vout(+) (Pin 8) and Vout(-) (Pin 4) exceeds the threshold of the OVP
circuitry. The OVP circuitry contains its own reference, independent of the output voltage regulation loop. Once the converter
has shut down, it will attempt to restart every 200 ms until the OVP condition is removed.
The converter will shut down under an over temperature condition to protect itself from overheating caused by operation
outside the thermal derating curves, or operation in abnormal conditions such as system fan failure. After the converter has
cooled to a safe operating temperature, it will automatically restart.
The converters meet North American and International safety regulatory requirements per UL60950 and EN60950 (pending).
Basic Insulation is provided between input and output.
To comply with safety agencies’ requirements, an input line fuse must be used external to the converter. The Table below
provides the recommended fuse rating for use with this family of products.

3A
Modules are UL approved for maximum fuse rating of 15 Amps. To protect a group of modules with a single fuse, the rating
can be increased from the recommended values above.
EMC requirements must be met at the end-product system level, as no specific standards dedicated to EMC characteristics
of board mounted component dc-dc converters exist. However, Bel Power Solutions tests its converters to several system
level standards, primary of which is the more stringent EN55022, Information technology equipment - Radio disturbance
characteristics-Limits and methods of measurement.
An effective internal LC differential filter significantly reduces input reflected ripple current, and improves EMC.
With the addition of a simple external filter, all versions of the QME-Series of converters pass the requirements of Class B
conducted emissions per EN55022 and FCC requirements. Please contact Bel Power Solutions Applications Engineering
for details of this testing.

The converter has been characterized for many operational aspects, to include thermal derating (maximum load current as
a function of ambient temperature and airflow) for vertical and horizontal mountings, efficiency, startup and shutdown
parameters, output ripple and noise, transient response to load step-change, overload, and short circuit.
The following pages contain specific plots or waveforms associated with the converter. Additional comments for specific
data are provided below.
All data presented were taken with the converter soldered to a test board, specifically a 0.060” thick printed wiring board
(PWB) with four layers. The top and bottom layers were not metalized. The two inner layers, comprised of two-ounce copper,
were used to provide traces for connectivity to the converter.
The lack of metalization on the outer layers as well as the limited thermal connection ensured that heat transfer from the
converter to the PWB was minimized. This provides a worst-case but consistent scenario for thermal derating purposes.
All measurements requiring airflow were made in the vertical and horizontal wind tunnel using Infrared (IR) thermography
and thermocouples for thermometry.
Ensuring components on the converter do not exceed their ratings is important to maintaining high reliability. If one
anticipates operating the converter at or close to the maximum loads specified in the derating curves, it is prudent to check
actual operating temperatures in the application. Thermographic imaging is preferable; if this capability is not available, then
thermocouples may be used. The use of AWG #40 gauge thermocouples is recommended to ensure measurement accuracy.
Careful routing of the thermocouple leads will further minimize measurement error. Refer to Fig. 8 for the optimum measuring
thermocouple locations.
Figure 8. Location of the thermocouple for thermal testing.
Load current vs. ambient temperature and airflow rates are given in Fig. x.9 and Fig. x.10 for vertical and horizontal converter
mountings. Ambient temperature was varied between 25 °C and 85 °C, with airflow rates from 30 to 500 LFM (0.15 to 2.5
m/s).
For each set of conditions, the maximum load current was defined as the lowest of:
(i)
(ii)
The output current at which any FET junction temperature does not exceed a maximum specified temperature of 120
°C as indicated by the thermographic image, or
The nominal rating of the converter (40 A).
During normal operation, derating curves with maximum FET temperature less or equal to 120 °C should not be exceeded.
Temperature on the PCB at thermocouple locations shown in Fig. 8 should not exceed 120 °C in order to operate inside the
derating curves.

ambient temperature with Vin = 48 V, airflow rate of 200 LFM (1 m/s) with horizontal mounting is shown in Fig. x.12.

waveforms are shown in Figs. x.21-22.
