Exemptions in the RoHS directive utilized in Flex Power
products are found in the Statement of Compliance
document.
Flex Power fulfills and will continuously fulfill all its obligations
under regulation (EC) No 1907/2006 concerning the
registration, evaluation, authorization and restriction of
chemicals (REACH) as they enter into force and is through
product materials declarations preparing for the obligations to
communicate information on substances in the products.
Quality Statement
Example: An open frame Main with LGA and Vout setpoint at 1.0V configured
for single module operation would be BMR481 0021/002C
1) The “Main” configuration sets all PMBus registers for proper module
operation. Application specific registers can be modified to customize the
configuration to meet a wide variety of performance objectives. The
configuration can be changed using the PMBus communication and stored in
non-volatile memory. Customized configurations can be created as orderable
parts and would be defined with an individual value for n5n6n7. The “002” part
is configured for single phase operation with PMBus output voltage control.
Please refer to additional details in this document for further definition of the
“002” configuration.
General Information
Reliability
The failure rate () and mean time between failures (MTBF=
1/) is calculated at max output power and an operating
ambient temperature (TA) of +40°C. Flex Power uses
Telcordia SR-332 Issue 4 Method 1 to calculate the mean
steady-state failure rate and standard deviation ().
Telcordia SR-332 Issue 4 also provides techniques to
estimate the upper confidence levels of failure rates based on
the mean and standard deviation.
Mean steady-state
failure rate, (
nFailures/h)
Main - 104
Satellite - 93
Std. deviation,
( nFailures/h)
Main – 7.8
Satellite – 7.4
The products are designed and manufactured in an industrial
environment where quality systems and methods like ISO
9000, Six Sigma, and SPC are intensively in use to boost the
continuous improvements strategy. Infant mortality or early
failures in the products are screened out and they are
subjected to an ATE-based final test. Conservative design
rules, design reviews and product qualifications, plus the high
competence of an engaged work force, contribute to the high
quality of the products.

Safety Specification
General information
Flex Power DC/DC converters and DC/DC regulators are
designed in accordance with the safety standards
IEC 62368-1, EN 62368-1 and UL 62368-1 Audio/video,
information and communication technology equipment Part 1: Safety requirements
IEC/EN/UL 62368-1 contains requirements to prevent injury
or damage due to the following hazards:
•
•
•
•
•
•
Electrical shock
Electrically-caused fire
Injury caused by hazardous substances
Mechanically-caused injury
Skin burn
Radiation-caused injury
On-board DC/DC converters, Power interface modules and
DC/DC regulators are defined as component power
supplies. As components they cannot fully comply with the
provisions of any safety requirements without “conditions of
acceptability”. Clearance between conductors and between
conductive parts of the component power supply and
conductors on the board in the final product must meet the
applicable safety requirements. Certain conditions of
acceptability apply for component power supplies with
limited stand-off (see Mechanical Information for further
information). It is the responsibility of the installer to ensure
that the final product housing these components complies
with the requirements of all applicable safety standards and
regulations for the final product.
Component power supplies for general use shall comply
with the requirements in IEC/EN/UL 62368-1. Product
related standards, e.g. IEEE 802.3af Power over Ethernet,
and ETS-300132-2 Power interface at the input to telecom
equipment, operated by direct current (dc) are based on
IEC/EN/UL 60950-1 with regards to safety.
Flex Power DC/DC converters, Power interface modules
and DC/DC regulators are UL 62368-1 recognized and
certified in accordance with EN 62368-1. The flammability
rating for all construction parts of the products meet
requirements for V-0 class material according to
IEC 60695-11-10, Fire hazard testing, test flames – 50 W
horizontal and vertical flame test methods.
Isolated DC/DC converters & Power interface modules
The product may provide basic or functional insulation
between input and output according to IEC/EN/UL 62368-1
(see Safety Certificate), different conditions shall be met if
the output of a basic or a functional insulated product shall
be considered as ES1 energy source.
For basic insulated products (see Safety Certificate) the
output is considered as ES1 energy source if one of the
4 (5)

following conditions is met:
• The input source provides supplementary or double or
reinforced insulation from the AC mains according to
IEC/EN/UL 62368-1.
• The input source provides functional or basic insulation
from the AC mains and the product’s output is reliably
connected to protective earth according to
IEC/EN/UL 62368-1.
For functional insulated products (see Safety Certificate)
the output is considered as ES1 energy source if one of the
following conditions is met:
• The input source provides double or reinforced
insulation from the AC mains according to
IEC/EN/UL 62368-1.
• The input source provides basic or supplementary
insulation from the AC mains and the product’s output is
reliably connected to protective earth according to
IEC/EN/UL 62368-1.
• The input source is reliably connected to protective
earth and provides basic or supplementary insulation
according to IEC/EN/UL 62368-1 and the maximum
input source voltage is 60 Vdc.
Galvanic isolation between input and output is verified in an
electric strength test and the isolation voltage (Viso) meets
the voltage strength requirement for basic insulation
according to IEC/EN/UL 62368-1.
It is recommended to use a slow blow fuse at the input of
each DC/DC converter. If an input filter is used in the circuit
the fuse should be placed in front of the input filter. In the
rare event of a component problem that imposes a short
circuit on the input source, this fuse will provide the
following functions:
• Isolate the fault from the input power source so as not
to affect the operation of other parts of the system.
• Protect the distribution wiring from excessive current
and power loss thus preventing hazardous overheating.

MFR_CS_PROP_INTEGR (0xF7)
Description: Sets Proportional (Kp) and Integral (Ki) correction for Active Current Sharing. In resonant topologies: In order to
enable the feature you need to set Ki to 1 or more. The higher value, the faster the regulator recovers current balancing after a
load (or number of turned on phases) change. Leave Kp=0. Algorithm: when a phase current is less than average value of
load/number of phases, then PWMx to START delay is increased. In non-resonant topologies (PSFB): In order to enable the
feature you need to set Kp to 1 or more. The higher value, the faster the regulator recovers current balancing after load (or
number of turned on phases) change. Leave Ki=0. Algorithm: when a phase current is less than average value of load/number
of phases, then PWMx to PWMy time width is increased.

(Tsw_noload*VOUT/VIN*1000) where Tsw_noload is the switching period
of one secondary phase at no load in useconds. For resonant topology
only.
kDUTY duty cycle [# of 0.195% Steps]; max = 50%, 0d = OFF. Duty cycle
value above which the correction engages. 3 remaining bits are stored in
MFR_DUTY_PARAMETER.
During soft-start (Vout ramp-up) this setting overrides the error clamp
setting by CTRL_VERR_CLAMP. LSB = 2mV. Error clamp threshold =
2mV * (63 - set value). Max 126mV (0x01). Set 128mV (0x00) to disable
function.
Sets K_GAIN_CTRL, the FeedForward Gain. Set to 0x01.

Function
Immediate

34 (42)
No.
Description
When set, immediate off (HiZ) is
used rather than soft-off when the
output voltage is disabled. When
set, also forces immediate off for
all protection shutdowns.
Because, in some cases, even if
the immediate OFF is configured
by OPERATION, the device is
defaulting the behavior to soft-off.
Vout OVP and OV peak
protections by default always
make a soft-off even if the
OPERATION configures
immediate OFF. This removes
these default; it overrides and
forces a real HiZ when stopping
the operations after a FAULT
event. For Vin UV/OV, Vout UV,
Iout OC, over power and over
temperature protections
immediate off (HiZ) is always used
and this bit has no impact.

THERMAL_GAIN (0xB01A)
Bit
Description
7:0
Used to set T_COMP variable for Thermal Compensation of output current sense. T_COMP
makes an adjustment of the correction factor that is ideal for copper, according to: Iinfo_TC =
Iinfo x Kcorr = Iinfo x 1 / (1 + alfa x deltaT_DCR) = Iinfo x 1 / (1 + alfa x deltaT_NTC x
T_COMP / 128) where alfa = 0.0039 and deltaT_NTC is calculated difference from Tmin,
given by TEL_NTC_MAP_Q6. Thus, T_COMP is used to compensate for the temp difference
between NTC-resistor and output inductor DCR. T_COMP = 128 means ideal correction alfa
is used. Note that Kcorr must always be in the range 0.67 to 1.0, which limits the maximum
deltaT_NTC that can be handled.

TEL_GAIN_VIN (0xB018)
Bit
Description
7:0
VSRMON ADC: Used to define the Gain correction for VIN monitoring over VSRMON when
Opto Mode is Enabled. Ranges linearly from 0 (0x00) to 2 (0xFF). 0x80 = Gain = 1 shall be
used for a 1/40 divider, which is the recommended configuration. VSRMON ADC range is 0
to 3.2V and VSRMON pin has an internal 10k pull-down resistor, thus a 1/40 divider is
achieved by a 390k resistance to VIN.

Virtual Droop
Mode
Virtual Droop slows the load
transient response in order to
keep the control loop (PID) in
linear region, avoiding control loop
saturation. Typically used in
applications without voltage
positioning (droop) since it adds a
virtual voltage positioning. Virtual
Droop reduces the regulation error
(when overcoming the set
threshold) for the programmed
timeframe. Enabling Virtual Droop
provides a load transient response
worse than without Virtual Droop
but it ensures a better response at
high frequency load transients.
