With twelve voltage division ratios from 1:1 to 1:32, the isolated VI Brick VTM provides the user with the flexibility to supply up to 100 A or 120 W at any output voltage from 1 to 50 Vdc in a package occupying ~ 2 square inches. The Military COTS VI Brick VTMs are optimized for use with the Military Pre-Regulator Module to implement a Factorized Power Architecture (FPA). Together, the PRM® + VTM set provides the full functionality of a DC-DC converter, but with breakthrough performance and flexibility in a rugged, miniature package. The companion VI Brick PRM for the MT036 family of VI Brick VTMs is the 28 Vdc input MR028A036M012FP, which operates from an input range of 16-50 Vdc (the data sheet is available at vicorpower.com). The VTM can also be used as a standalone POL product. By factorizing the DC-DC power conversion into its essential elements – isolation and transformation on the one hand, and the output voltage control and regulation on the other – and arranging those functions in a sequence that maximizes system performance, FPA offers a fundamentally new and significantly improved approach to power conversion. The VI Brick VTM’s fast dynamic response and low noise eliminate the need for bulk capacitance at the load, substantially increasing the POL density while improving reliability and decreasing cost.

It receives the initial VCC voltage from an upstream PRM®, synchronizing the output rise of the VTM with the output rise of the PRM. Additionally, the VC port provides feedback to the PRM to compensate for the VTM output resistance. In typical applications using VTMs powered from PRMs, the PRM’s VC port should be connected to the VTM VC port. The Primary Control (PC) port is a multifunction port for controlling the VTM as follows: In applications where a VTM is being used without a PRM, 14 V must be supplied to the VC port for as long as the input voltage is below 26 V and for 10 ms after the input voltage has reached or exceeded 26 V. The VTM is not designed for extended operation below 26 V. The VC port should only be used to provide VCC voltage to the VTM during startup. Disable – If PC is left floating, the VTM output is enabled. To disable the output, the PC port must be pulled lower than 2.4 V, referenced to -In. Optocouplers, open collector transistors or relays can be used to control the PC port. Once disabled, 14 V must be re-applied to the VC port to restart the VTM. Primary Auxiliary Supply – The PC port can source up to 2.4 mA at 5 Vdc.

Be aware of this limit in applications where the VTM is being driven above its nominal output voltage. If less than 26 Vdc is present at the +In and -In ports, a continuous VC voltage must be applied for the VTM to process power. Otherwise VC voltage need only be applied for 10 ms after the voltage at the +In and -In ports has reached or exceeded 26 Vdc. If the input voltage exceeds the overvoltage turn-off, the VTM will shutdown. The VTM does not have internal input reverse polarity protection. Adding a properly sized diode in series with the positive input or a fused reverse-shunt diode will provide reverse polarity protection. TM – For Factory Use Only VC – VTM Control The VC port is multiplexed. It receives the initial VCC voltage from an upstream PRM®, synchronizing the output rise of the VTM with the output rise of the PRM. Additionally, the VC port provides feedback to the PRM to compensate for the VTM output resistance. In typical applications using VTMs powered from PRMs, the PRM’s VC port should be connected to the VTM VC port. Figure 9 — VI Brick VTM pin configuration (viewed from pin side) In applications where a VTM is being used without a PRM, 14 V must be supplied to the VC port for as long as the input voltage is below 26 V and for 10 ms after the input voltage has reached or exceeded 26 V. The VTM is not designed for extended operation below 26 V. The VC port should only be used to provide VCC voltage to the VTM during startup. PC – Primary Control The Primary Control (PC) port is a multifunction port for controlling the VTM as follows: Disable – If PC is left floating, the VTM output is enabled. To disable the output, the PC port must be pulled lower than 2.4 V, referenced to -In. Optocouplers, open collector transistors or relays can be used to control the PC port. Once disabled, 14 V must be re-applied to the VC port to restart the VTM. Primary Auxiliary Supply – The PC port can source up to 2.4 mA at 5 Vdc. +Out / -Out DC Voltage Output Ports The output and output return are through two sets of contact locations. The respective +Out and –Out groups must be connected in parallel with as low an interconnect resistance as possible. To take full advantage of the VTM, the user should note the low output impedance of the device. The low output impedance provides fast transient response without the need for bulk POL capacitance. Limited-life electrolytic capacitors required with conventional converters can be reduced or even eliminated, saving cost and valuable board real estate. MIL-COTS VTM® Rev 1.1 vicorpower.com Page 9 of 13 01/2014 800 927.9474 MT036 SERIES Not Recommended for New Designs / End of Life - Please see First Page APPLICATION NOTES & TEST CIRCUIT Parallel Operation In applications requiring higher current or redundancy, VTMs can be operated in parallel without adding control circuitry or signal lines. To maximize current sharing accuracy, it is imperative that the source and load impedance on each VTM in a parallel array be equal. If VTMs are being fed by an upstream PRM®, the VC nodes of all VTMs must be connected to the PRM VC. To achieve matched impedances, dedicated power planes within the PC board should be used for the output and output return paths to the array of paralleled VTMs. This technique is preferable to using traces of varying size and length. The VTM power train and control architecture allow bi-directional power transfer when the VTM is operating within its specified ranges. Bi-directional power processing improves transient response in the event of an output load dump. The VTM may operate in reverse, returning output power back to the input source. It does so efficiently. Anomalies in the response of the source will appear at the output of the VTM, multiplied by its K factor of 1/8 . The DC resistance of the source should be kept as low as possible to minimize voltage deviations on the input to the VTM. If the VTM is going to be operating close to the high limit of its input range, make sure input voltage deviations will not trigger the input overvoltage turn-off threshold. Input Fuse Recommendations VI Bricks are not internally fused in order to provide flexibility in configuring power systems. However, input line fusing of VI Bricks must always be incorporated within the power system. A fast acting fuse is required to meet safety agency Conditions of Acceptability. The input line fuse should be placed in series with the +In port. Please see vicorpower.com for agency approvals and fusing conditions. Application Notes Input Impedance Recommendations To take full advantage of the VTM’s capabilities, the impedance of the source (input source plus the PC board impedance) must be low over a range from DC to 5 MHz. The input of the VTM (factorized bus) should be locally bypassed with a 8 µF low Q aluminum electrolytic capacitor. Additional input capacitance may be added to improve transient performance or compensate for high source impedance. The VTM has extremely wide bandwidth so the source response to transients is usually the limiting factor in overall output response of the VTM. www.vicorpower.com/application-notes Input reflected ripple measurement point 7 A[a] Fuse F1 C1 47 µF Al electrolytic For VTM and VI Brick application notes on soldering, thermal management, board layout, and system design click on the link below: +IN C2 0.47 μF ceramic 14 V + – TM VC PC -OUT R3 10 mΩ +OUT C3 10 µF VTM -IN Notes: 1.
