100% SMT-on-pcb, including magnetics
100% automatically assembled
Standard "DIP" package and pinouts
Fully isolated, 1000Vdc guaranteed
5, 12 or 15 Volt outputs
Choice of 3 wide-range inputs:
4.5-9 Volts
9-18 Volts
18-72 Volts
Rarely has a Series of low-power DC/DC
converters been defined by both low cost and
Murata Power Solutions' made-in-the-USA quality
and reliability. Our new UST Series of single-output
DC/DC’s achieves this best-of-both-worlds status
by implementing a proven circuit architecture
(170-200kHz flyback design) as a full, SMT-on-pcb
assembly (including surface-mount magnetics) that
is truly 100% automatically assembled. Packaged
in miniature 1.25" x 0.8", DIP-like plastic packages
(UL94V-0 rated) and requiring no external components, UST Series DC/DC’s bring true componentlike convenience to designers of today’s distributed
power systems.
Output voltages are 5, 12 or 15 Volts. Input
voltage ranges are 4.5-9V ("D5" models), 9-18V
("D12" models) or an ultra-wide 18-72V ("D48"
models). UST DC/DC’s are fully isolated (1000Vdc
guaranteed) and include input (pi type) and output
filters within their package. Output transient
response is a quick 200µsec, while output ripple
and noise are typically 75mVp-p.
These rugged modules are fully encapsulated
with a thermally conductive potting compound that
contributes to their outstanding moisture/vibration
resistance and impressive MTBF. They operate over
the full –40 to +75°C temperature range without
derating. All models have been thoroughly characterized (electrically, mechanically and thermally),
qualified (including HALT), and EMI/EMC tested.
Additionally, they are certified to UL1950, CSA 22.2
No. 950 and IEC950.
Murata Power Solutions' UST Model 3W DC/
DC’s are excellent selections for telecom/datacom,
computer and process-control applications demanding small size, low cost and high reliability. If required,
their design "flexibility" allows for easy modification to
your application-specific requirements.

TECHNICAL NOTES
Floating Outputs
Since these are isolated DC/DC converters, their outputs are "floating."
Users may ground either the Common (pins 5 and 7) for normal usage or
the positive side (+Output, pins 6 and 8) to effectively reverse the output
polarity.

All UST 3 Watt DC/DC Converters achieve their rated ripple and noise
specifications without the use of external input/output capacitors. In critical applications, input/output ripple and noise may be further reduced by
installing electrolytic capacitors across the input terminals and/or low-ESR
tantalum or electrolytic capacitors across the output terminals. The caps
should be located as close to the power converters as possible. Typical
values are listed in the tables below. In many applications, using values
greater than those listed will yield better results.
Dimensions
➀ These power converters require a minimum 10% loading to maintain specified regulation.
Operation under no-load conditions will not damage these devices; however, they may not
meet all listed specifications.
➁ Application-specific internal input/output filtering can be recommended for quantity orders
and perhaps added internally upon request. Contact Murata Power Solutions Applications
Engineering for details.
➂ Devices can be screened for quantity orders or modified for higher guaranteed isolation
voltages. Contact Murata Power Solutions Applications Engineering for details.
➃ The current limit inception point is dependent on the input voltage. Therefore, it is possible
to draw current beyond the rated capacity. Users should fully characterize their load conditions.

EMI RADIATED EMISSIONS
If you’re designing with EMC in mind, please note that all of Murata Power
Solutions' ST 3 Watt DC/DC Converters have been characterized for radiated and conducted emissions in our new EMI/EMC laboratory. Testing is
conducted in an EMCO 5305 GTEM test cell utilizing EMCO automated EMC
test software. Radiated emissions are tested to the limits of FCC Part 15,
Class B and CISPR 22 (EN 55022), Class B. Correlation to other specifications can be supplied upon request. Radiated emissions plots to FCC and
CISPR 22 for model UST-5/500-D48 appear below.
