A 03/19/09 Page 9 Technical Specification BASIC OPERATION AND FEATURES The PowerQor Exa series converter uses a two-stage power conversion topology. The first stage keeps the output voltage constant over variations in line, load, and temperature. The second stage uses a transformer to provide the functions of input/output isolation and voltage step-down to achieve the low output voltage required. Both the first stage and the second stage switch at a fixed frequency for predictable EMI performance. Rectification of the transformer’s output is accomplished with synchronous rectifiers. These devices, which are MOSFETs with a very low on-state resistance, dissipate significantly less energy than Schottky diodes, enabling the PowerQor converter to achieve high efficiency. Dissipation throughout the converter is so low that it does not require a heatsink for operation. Since a heatsink is not required, the PowerQor converter does not need a metal baseplate or potting material to help conduct the dissipated energy to the heatsink. As an open frame module, the PowerQor converter can be built more simply and reliably using high yield surface mount techniques on a PCB substrate. The PowerQor series of half-brick, quarter-brick and eighth-brick converters uses the industry standard footprint and pin-out configuration. Input: Output: Current: Package: CONTROL FEATURES 35-75 V 12 V 17 A (200W) Quarter-brick REMOTE ON/OFF (Pin 2): The ON/OFF input, Pin 2, permits the user to control when the converter is on or off. This input is referenced to the return terminal of the input bus, Vin(-). The converter is available with either positive or negative logic used for the ON/OFF input. In the positive logic version, the ON/OFF input is active high (meaning that a high voltage turns the converter on). In the negative logic version, the ON/OFF signal is active low (meaning that a low voltage turns the converter on). Figure A details five possible circuits for driving the ON/OFF pin. REMOTE SENSE(+) (Pins 7 and 5): The SENSE(+) inputs correct for voltage drops along the conductors that connect the converter’s output pins to the load. Pin 7 should be connected to Vout(+) and Pin 5 should be connected to Vout(-) at the point on the board where regulation is desired. If these connections are not made, the converter will deliver an output voltage that is slightly higher than its specified value. Note: The output over-voltage protection circuit senses the voltage across the sense leads (pins 7 and 5) to determine when it should trigger, not the voltage across the converter’s output pins (pins 8 and 4). OUTPUT VOLTAGE TRIM (Pin 6): The TRIM input permits the user to adjust the output voltage across the sense leads up or down according to the trim range specifications. SynQor uses industry standard trim equations. To decrease the output voltage, the user should connect a resistor between Pin 6 (TRIM) and Pin 5 (SENSE(–) input). For a desired decrease of the nominal output voltage, the value of the resistor should be: ON/OFF ON/OFF ON/OFF Vin(_) Remote Enable Circuit Vin(_) Negative Logic (Permanently Enabled) Vin(_) Positive Logic (Permanently Enabled) Rtrim-down = where (511) _ 10.22 D% kW ON/OFF CMOS 5V ON/OFF D% = Vnominal – Vdesired Vnominal x 100% Vin(_) Open Collector Enable Circuit Vin(_) Direct Logic Drive Figure A: Various circuits for driving the ON/OFF pin.

A 03/19/09 Page 10 Technical Specification To increase the output voltage, the user should connect a resistor between Pin 6 (TRIM) and Pin 7 (SENSE(+) input). For a desired increase of the nominal output voltage, the value of the resistor should be Input: Output: Current: Package: 35-75 V 12 V 17 A (200W) Quarter-brick Rtrim-up = where ( 5.11VOUT(100+D%) _ 511 _ 10.22 1.225D% D% ) few hundred hours, but not for an indefinite period or the product lifetime. The OVP trip point is set above this level, so it will not shut down from output overvoltage protection when trimmed up between 5% and 10%. Continuous operation of this converter while trimmed up more than 5% could affect long term reliability. Total DC Variation of Vout: For the converter to meet its full specifications, the maximum variation of the DC value of Vout, due to both trimming and remote load voltage drops, should not be greater than that specified for the output voltage trim range. (kW) VOUT = Nominal Output Voltage Figure B graphs the relationship between the trim resistor value, Rtrim-up and Rtrim-down, showing the total range the output voltage can be trimmed up or down. 0 1,000,000.0 5 10 15 20 25 30 35 40 45 50 PROTECTION FEATURES Input Under-Voltage Lockout: The converter is designed to turn off when the input voltage is too low, helping to avoid an input system instability problem, which is described in more detail in the application note titled “Input System Instability” on the SynQor website. The lockout circuitry is a comparator with DC hysteresis. When the input voltage is rising, it must exceed the typical “Turn-On Voltage Threshold” value* before the converter will turn on. Once the converter is on, the input voltage must fall below the typical Turn-Off Voltage Threshold value before the converter will turn off. Output Current Limit: If the output current exceeds the “Output DC Current Limit Inception” point*, then a fast linear current limit controller will reduce the output voltage to maintain a constant output current. If as a result, the output voltage falls below the “Output DC Current Limit Shutdown Voltage”* for more than 50ms, then the unit will enter into hiccup mode, with a 500ms off-time. The unit will then automatically attempt to restart. 100,000.0 Trim Resistance (kOhms) 10,000.0 1,000.0 100.0 10.0 1.0 0.1 % Increase in Vout % Decrease in Vout Figure B: Trim Graph for 12Vout module Note: The TRIM feature does not affect the voltage at which the output over-voltage protection circuit is triggered. Trimming the output voltage too high may cause the over-voltage protection circuit to engage, particularly during transients. It is not necessary for the user to add capacitance at the Trim pin. The node is internally filtered to eliminate noise. Limited 10% up-trim: This converter is capable of operating for an indefinite period of time with the output trimmed up to 5% above the nominal 12V output level*. It may also be trimmed down by as much as 50% (to 6.0V) indefinitely. This converter is also capable of being trimmed up by as much as 10% (up to 13.2V) for shorter periods of time that are not a significant fraction of the product lifetime. For example, in a test situation, or for output voltage margining where it would remain trimmed up between 5% and 10% of the nominal voltage for a Product # PQ60120QEA17 Phone 1-888-567-9596 Back-Drive Current Limit: If there is negative output current of a magnitude larger than the “Back-Drive Current Limit while Enabled” specification*, then a fast back-drive limit controller will increase the output voltage to maintain a constant output current. If this results in the output voltage exceeding the “Output OverVoltage Protection” threshold*, then the unit will shut down. The full I-V output characteristics can be seen in Figure 17. Output Over-Voltage Limit: If the voltage directly across the output pins exceeds the “Output Over-Voltage Protection” threshold*, the converter will immediately stop switching. This shutdown is latching; unlike other shutdown types, the converter will not restart unless the input power is cycled or the ON/OFF input is toggled. Over-Temperature Shutdown: A temperature sensor on the converter senses the average temperature of the module. The thermal shutdown circuit is designed to turn the converter off when the temperature at the sensed location reaches the “Over-Temperature Shutdown” value*. It will allow the converter to turn on again when the temperature of the sensed location falls by the amount of the “Over-Temperature Shutdown Restart Hysteresis” value*. * See Electrical Characteristics page.

Therefore, the output voltage will exhibit discrete steps as the loop responds to changes in line, load, trim, or remote sense. For instance, on close examination, the startup ramp has a “stair-step” shape. Likewise, a load transient response will be composed of multiple discrete steps. The size of each step is well determined, and is shown in Figure C. A close-up picture of a single step is shown in Figure D. Stepping will not occur under steady state conditions. Current share and active trim not recommended: It is important to note that external feedback control using the sense or trim pins will cause sustained stepping. External current share or active trim circuits contain a separate reference voltage. After this external feedback has taken control, the actual output voltage can still differ from the external reference voltage by as much as the step size. If the external feedback loop integrates this error voltage, it will cause a limit cycle oscillation. For this reason, external feedback using the sense and trim pins is not recommended. Input: Output: Current: Package: 35-75 V 12 V 17 A (200W) Quarter-brick Input System Instability: This condition can occur because any DC/DC converter appears incrementally as a negative resistance load. A detailed application note titled “Input System Instability” is available on the SynQor website which provides an understanding of why this instability arises, and shows the preferred solution for correcting it. 140 120 Vout Step Size (mV) 100 80 60 40 = 12.0 Vout 20 0 35 40 45 50 55 60 65 70 75 = 10.0 Vout ≤ 8.75 Vout Vin (V) Figure C: Output voltage resolution.

Input Filtering and External Input Capacitance: Figure F below shows the internal input filter components. This filter dramatically reduces input terminal ripple current, which otherwise could exceed the rating of an external electrolytic input capacitor. The recommended external input capacitance is specified in the Input Characteristics section on the Electrical Specifications page. More detailed information is available in the application note titled “EMI Characteristics” on the SynQor website. Output Filtering and External Output Capacitance: Figure F below shows the internal output filter components. This filter dramatically reduces output voltage ripple. However, some minimum external output capacitance is required, as specified in the Output Characteristics section on the Electrical Specifications page. No damage will occur without this capacitor connected, but peak output voltage ripple will be much higher.
