SPECIFICATION NOTES
[1] All specifications are typical unless noted. Ambient temperature = +25 degrees Celsius, Vin is
nominal (+48 Volts), output current is maximum rated nominal. Output capacitance is 1 μF ceramic
paralleled with 10 μF electrolytic. Input caps are 22 μF except HPH-3.3/70-D48 which is 100 μF input.
All caps are low ESR. These capacitors are necessary for our test equipment and may not be needed
in your application.
Testing must be kept short enough that the converter does not appreciably heat up during testing. For
extended testing, use plenty of airflow. See Derating Curves for temperature performance. All models
are stable and regulate within spec without external cacacitance.
[2] Input Ripple Current is tested and specified over a 5-20 MHz bandwidth and uses a special set of
external filters only for the Ripple Current specifications. Input filtering is Cin = 33 μF, Cbus = 220 μF,
Lbus = 12 μH except HPH-3.3/70-D48 is Cin = 100μF. Use capacitor rated voltages which are twice
the maximum expected voltage. Capacitors must accept high speed AC switching currents.
[7] Regulation specifications describe the deviation as the input line voltage or output load current is
varied from a nominal midpoint value to either extreme.
[8] Do not exceed maximum power ratings, Sense limits or output overvoltage when adjusting output
trim values.
[9] At zero output current, Vout may contain components which slightly exceed the ripple and noise
specifications.
[10] Output overload protection is non-latching. When the output overload is removed, the output will
automatically recover.
[11] Because of the high currents, wire the appropriate input, output and common pins in parallel
groups. Be sure to use adequate PC board etch. If not sufficient, install additional discrete wiring. If
wiring is not sufficient, the Sense feedback may attempt to drive the outputs beyond ratings.
[3] Note that Maximum Current Derating Curves indicate an average current at nominal input voltage.
At higher temperatures and/or lower airflow, the converter will tolerate brief full current outputs if the
total RMS current over time does not exceed the Derating curve.
[12] The converter will shut off if the input falls below the undervoltage threshold. It will not restart
until the input exceeds the Input Start Up Voltage.
[4] Mean Time Before Failure (MTBF) is calculated using the Telcordia (Belcore) SR-332 Method 1,
Case 3, ground fixed conditions. TPCBOARD = +25 °C., full output load, natural air convection.
[14] Output noise may be further reduced by installing an external filter. See the Application Notes.
[5] The output may be shorted to ground indefinitely with no damage.
[16] To protect against accidental input voltage polarity reversal, install a fuse in series with +Vin. See
Fusing information.
6] The On/Off Control is normally driven from a switch or relay. An open collector/open drain transistor
may be used in saturation and cut-off (pinch-off) modes. External logic may also be used if voltage
levels are fully compliant to the specifications.
[13] Please refer to the separate output capacitive load application note from Murata Power Solutions.
[15] To avoid damage or unplanned shutdown, avoid sinking reverse output current.
[17] HPH-5/40-D48 full current hiccup is approximately 3% duty cycle, 0.8 Hz pulse rate.

TECHNICAL NOTES
Input Fusing
Certain applications and/or safety agencies may require fuses at the inputs of
power conversion components. Fuses should also be used when there is the
possibility of sustained input voltage reversal which is not current-limited. For
greatest safety, we recommend a fast blow fuse installed in the ungrounded
input supply line.
The installer must observe all relevant safety standards and regulations. For
safety agency approvals, install the converter in compliance with the end-user
safety standard.
Input Reverse-Polarity Protection
If the input voltage polarity is reversed, an internal diode will become forward
biased and likely draw excessive current from the power source. If this source
is not current-limited or the circuit appropriately fused, it could cause permanent damage to the converter.
Input Under-Voltage Shutdown and Start-Up Threshold
Under normal start-up conditions, converters will not begin to regulate properly
until the ramping-up input voltage exceeds and remains at the Start-Up
Threshold Voltage (see Specifications). Once operating, converters will not
turn off until the input voltage drops below the Under-Voltage Shutdown Limit.
Subsequent restart will not occur until the input voltage rises again above the
Start-Up Threshold. This built-in hysteresis prevents any unstable on/off operation at a single input voltage.
Users should be aware however of input sources near the Under-Voltage Shutdown whose voltage decays as input current is consumed (such as capacitor
inputs), the converter shuts off and then restarts as the external capacitor
recharges. Such situations could oscillate. To prevent this, make sure the operating input voltage is well above the UV Shutdown voltage AT ALL TIMES.
performance is improved by adding external filter components. Sometimes only
a small ceramic capacitor is sufficient. Since it is difficult to totally characterize
all applications, some experimentation may be needed. Note that external input
capacitors must accept high speed switching currents.
Because of the switching nature of DC/DC converters, the input of these
converters must be driven from a source with both low AC impedance and
adequate DC input regulation. Performance will degrade with increasing input
inductance. Excessive input inductance may inhibit operation. The DC input
regulation specifies that the input voltage, once operating, must never degrade
below the Shut-Down Threshold under all load conditions. Be sure to use
adequate trace sizes and mount components close to the converter.
I/O Filtering, Input Ripple Current and Output Noise
All models in this converter series are tested and specified for input reflected
ripple current and output noise using designated external input/output components, circuits and layout as shown in the figures below. External input capacitors
(Cin in the figure) serve primarily as energy storage elements, minimizing line
voltage variations caused by transient IR drops in the input conductors. Users
should select input capacitors for bulk capacitance (at appropriate frequencies), low ESR and high RMS ripple current ratings. In the figure below, the Cbus
and Lbus components simulate a typical DC voltage bus. Your specific system
configuration may require additional considerations. Please note that the values
of Cin, Lbus and Cbus will vary according to the specific converter model.
In critical applications, output ripple and noise (also referred to as periodic and
TO
OSCILLOSCOPE
+VIN
VIN
Start-Up Time
Assuming that the output current is set at the rated maximum, the Vin to Vout
Start-Up Time (see Specifications) is the time interval between the point when
the ramping input voltage crosses the Start-Up Threshold and the fully loaded
regulated output voltage enters and remains within its specified accuracy band.
Actual measured times will vary with input source impedance, external input
capacitance, input voltage slew rate and final value of the input voltage as it
appears at the converter.
These converters include a soft start circuit to moderate the duty cycle of its
PWM controller at power up, thereby limiting the input inrush current.
The On/Off Remote Control interval from On command to Vout regulated assumes that the converter already has its input voltage stabilized above the
Start-Up Threshold before the On command. The interval is measured from the
On command until the output enters and remains within its specified accuracy
band. The specification assumes that the output is fully loaded at maximum
rated current. Similar conditions apply to the On to Vout regulated specification
such as external load capacitance and soft start circuitry.

Engineers can recommend potential solutions.
In figure 3, the two copper strips simulate real-world printed circuit impedances between the power supply and its load. In order to minimize circuit errors
and standardize tests between units, scope measurements should be made
using BNC connectors or the probe ground should not exceed one half inch and
soldered directly to the fixture.
Input Source Impedance
These converters will operate to specifications without external components,
assuming that the source voltage has very low impedance and reasonable input voltage regulation. Since real-world voltage sources have finite impedance,

Floating Outputs
Since these are isolated DC/DC converters, their outputs are “floating” with
respect to their input. The essential feature of such isolation is ideal ZERO
CURRENT FLOW between input and output. Real-world converters however do
exhibit tiny leakage currents between input and output (see Specifications).
These leakages consist of both an AC stray capacitance coupling component
and a DC leakage resistance. When using the isolation feature, do not allow
the isolation voltage to exceed specifications. Otherwise the converter may
be damaged. Designers will normally use the negative output (-Output) as
the ground return of the load circuit. You can however use the positive output
(+Output) as the ground return to effectively reverse the output polarity.
Minimum Output Loading Requirements
These converters employ a synchronous rectifier design topology. All models
regulate within specification and are stable under no load to full load conditions. Operation under no load might however slightly increase output ripple
and noise.
Thermal Shutdown
To prevent many over temperature problems and damage, these converters
include thermal shutdown circuitry. If environmental conditions cause the
temperature of the DC/DC’s to rise above the Operating Temperature Range
up to the shutdown temperature, an on-board electronic temperature sensor
will power down the unit. When the temperature decreases below the turn-on
threshold, the converter will automatically restart. There is a small amount of
hysteresis to prevent rapid on/off cycling. The temperature sensor is typically
located adjacent to the switching controller, approximately in the center of the
unit. See the Performance and Functional Specifications.
CAUTION: If you operate too close to the thermal limits, the converter may shut
down suddenly without warning. Be sure to thoroughly test your application to
avoid unplanned thermal shutdown.
Temperature Derating Curves
The graphs in this data sheet illustrate typical operation under a variety of
conditions. The Derating curves show the maximum continuous ambient air
temperature and decreasing maximum output current which is acceptable
under increasing forced airflow measured in Linear Feet per Minute (“LFM”).
Note that these are AVERAGE measurements. The converter will accept brief
increases in temperature and/or current or reduced airflow as long as the average is not exceeded.
MPS makes Characterization measurements in a closed cycle wind tunnel with
calibrated airflow. We use both thermocouples and an infrared camera system
to observe thermal performance. As a practical matter, it is quite difficult to
insert an anemometer to precisely measure airflow in most applications.
Sometimes it is possible to estimate the effective airflow if you thoroughly understand the enclosure geometry, entry/exit orifice areas and the fan flowrate
specifications. If in doubt, contact MPS to discuss placement and measurement
techniques of suggested temperature sensors.
CAUTION: If you routinely or accidentally exceed these Derating guidelines, the
converter may have an unplanned Over Temperature shut down. Also, these
graphs are all collected at slightly above Sea Level altitude. Be sure to reduce
the derating for higher density altitude.
Output Overvoltage Protection
This converter monitors its output voltage for an over-voltage condition using
an on-board electronic comparator. The signal is optically coupled to the primary side PWM controller. If the output exceeds OVP limits, the sensing circuit
will power down the unit, and the output voltage will decrease. After a time-out
period, the PWM will automatically attempt to restart, causing the output voltage to ramp up to its rated value. It is not necessary to power down and reset
the converter for this automatic OVP-recovery restart.
If the fault condition persists and the output voltage climbs to excessive levels,
the OVP circuitry will initiate another shutdown cycle. This on/off cycling is
referred to as “hiccup” mode. It safely tests full current rated output voltage
without damaging the converter.
Output Fusing
The converter is extensively protected against current, voltage and temperature
extremes. However your output application circuit may need additional protection. In the extremely unlikely event of output circuit failure, excessive voltage
could be applied to your circuit. Consider using an appropriate fuse in series
with the output.
Output Current Limiting
As soon as the output current increases to approximately 125% to 150% of
its maximum rated value, the DC/DC converter will enter a current-limiting
mode. The output voltage will decrease proportionally with increases in output
current, thereby maintaining a somewhat constant power output. This is commonly referred to as power limiting.
Current limiting inception is defined as the point at which full power falls below
the rated tolerance. See the Performance/Functional Specifications. Note
particularly that the output current may briefly rise above its rated value. This
enhances reliability and continued operation of your application. If the output
current is too high, the converter will enter the short circuit condition.
Output Short Circuit Condition
When a converter is in current-limit mode, the output voltage will drop as
the output current demand increases. If the output voltage drops too low, the
magnetically coupled voltage used to develop primary side voltages will also
drop, thereby shutting down the PWM controller. Following a time-out period,
www.murata-ps.com/support
MDC_HPH_B01 Page 10 of 13
HPH Series
Isolated, Low VOUT to 70A, Half-Brick DC/DC Converters
the PWM will restart, causing the output voltage to begin ramping up to its appropriate value. If the short-circuit condition persists, another shutdown cycle
will initiate. This on/off cycling is called “hiccup mode”. The hiccup cycling
reduces the average output current, thereby preventing excessive internal
temperatures. A short circuit can be tolerated indefinitely.
Remote Sense Input
Sense inputs compensate for output voltage inaccuracy delivered at the load.
This is done by correcting voltage drops along the output wiring such as moderate IR drops and the current carrying capacity of PC board etch. Sense inputs
also improve the stability of the converter and load system by optimizing the
control loop phase margin.
Note: The Sense input and power Vout lines are internally connected through
low value resistors to their respective polarities so that the converter can
operate without external connection to the Sense. Nevertheless, if the Sense
function is not used for remote regulation, the user should connect +Sense to
+Vout and –Sense to –Vout at the converter pins.
The remote Sense lines carry very little current. They are also capacitively
coupled to the output lines and therefore are in the feedback control loop to
regulate and stabilize the output. As such, they are not low impedance inputs
and must be treated with care in PC board layouts. Sense lines on the PCB
should run adjacent to DC signals, preferably Ground. In cables and discrete
wiring, use twisted pair, shielded tubing or similar techniques
Please observe Sense inputs tolerance to avoid improper operation:
a single fixed resistor connected between the Trim input and either the +Sense
or –Sense terminals. (On some converters, an external user-supplied precision
DC voltage may also be used for trimming). Trimming resistors should have a
low temperature coefficient (±100 ppm/deg.C or less) and be mounted close
to the converter. Keep leads short. If the trim function is not used, leave the
trim unconnected. With no trim, the converter will exhibit its specified output
voltage accuracy.
There are two CAUTIONs to be aware for the Trim input:
CAUTION: To avoid unplanned power down cycles, do not exceed EITHER the
maximum output voltage OR the maximum output power when setting the trim.
Be particularly careful with a trimpot. If the output voltage is excessive, the
OVP circuit may inadvertantly shut down the converter. If the maximum power
is exceeded, the converter may enter current limiting. If the power is exceeded
for an extended period, the converter may overheat and encounter overtemperature shut down.
CAUTION: Be careful of external electrical noise. The Trim input is a senstive
input to the converter’s feedback control loop. Excessive electrical noise may
cause instability or oscillation. Keep external connections short to the Trim
input. Use shielding if needed. Also consider adding a small value ceramic
capacitor between the Trim and –Vout to bypass RF and electrical noise.

There are two CAUTIONs for the On/Off Control:
CAUTION: While it is possible to control the On/Off with external logic if you
carefully observe the voltage levels, the preferred circuit is either an open

logic).
CAUTION: Do not apply voltages to the On/Off pin when there is no input power
voltage. Otherwise the converter may be permanently damaged.

Both through-hole and surface mount converters are soldered
down to a host carrier board for realistic heat absorption and
spreading. Both longitudinal and transverse airflow studies are
possible by rotation of this carrier board since there are often
significant differences in the heat dissipation in the two airflow
directions. The combination of both adjustable airflow, adjustable
ambient heat and adjustable Input/Output currents and voltages
mean that a very wide range of measurement conditions can be
studied.
The airflow collimator mixes the heat from the heating element
to make uniform temperature distribution. The collimator also
reduces the amount of turbulence adjacent to the UUT by restoring laminar airflow. Such turbulence can change the effective
heat transfer characteristics and give false readings. Excess
turbulence removes more heat from some surfaces and less heat
from others, possibly causing uneven overheating.

Both sides of the UUT are studied since there are different thermal gradients
on each side. The adjustable heating element and fan, built-in temperature
gauges and no-contact IR camera mean that power supplies are tested in realworld conditions.
