DC-DC Converter
The PQ60050HPB45 PowerQor Peta converter is a nextgeneration, board-mountable, isolated, fixed switching
frequency DC/DC converter that uses synchronous
rectification to achieve extremely high conversion
efficiency. The power dissipated by the converter is so
low that a heatsink is not required, which saves cost,
weight, height, and application effort. The Peta series
converters offer industry leading output power for a
standard half-brick module. In addition to typical single
ouput voltage applications, the Peta units can also be
used to provide a wide input range Intermediate Bus
for IBA systems. RoHS compliant (see last page).
Protection Features
• Input under-voltage lockout disables converter at low Vin conditions
• Output current limit & Short circuit protection
• Active back bias limit prevents damage to converter
from external load induced pre-bias
• Output over-voltage protection
• Thermal shutdown protects converter from abnormal conditions
PQ60050HPx45 Model
Operational Features
• Ultra-high efficiency, 91% at full rated load current
• Delivers up to 225W of output power (45A)
with minimal derating - no heatsink required
• Wide input voltage range: 35-75V
• Input voltage transient capability: 100V, 100ms
• Fixed frequency switching provides predictable EMI
Mechanical Features
• Industry standard pin-out configuration
• Standard Size Open Frame:2.40" x 2.30" (61 x 58.4mm)
• Total Open Frame height only 0.43” (10.8mm),
permits better airflow and smaller card pitch
• Open Frame Weight: 2.6 oz. (75g)
• Flanged pins designed to permit surface mount soldering
(avoid wave solder) using FPiP technique
Control Features
• On/Off control referenced to input side (Positive & Neg logic options)

BASIC OPERATION AND FEATURES
CONTROL FEATURES
The PowerQor series converter uses a two-stage power
conversion topology. The first stage is a buck-converter that
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.
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(-). There are two versions of the converter that
differ by the sense of the logic used for the ON/OFF input.
In the positive logic version, the ON/OFF input is active high
(meaning that a high turns the converter on). In the negative
logic version, the ON/OFF signal is active low (meaning that
a low turns the converter on). Figure A details five possible
circuits for driving the ON/OFF pin. Figure B is a detailed
look of the internal ON/OFF circuitry.
REMOTE SENSE(+) (Pins 8 and 6): The SENSE(+)
inputs correct for voltage drops along the conductors that
connect the converter’s output pins to the load.
Pin 8 should be connected to Vout(+) and Pin 6 should
be connected to Vout(-) at the point on the board where
regulation is desired. A remote connection at the load can
adjust for a voltage drop only as large as that specified in
this datasheet, that is
[Vout(+) - Vout(-)] – [Vsense(+) - Vsense(-)] ≤
Sense Range % x Vout
Pins 8 and 6 must be connected for proper regulation of
the output voltage. 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 output (pins 9 and 5) to determine when
it should trigger, not the voltage across the converter’s
sense leads (pins 8 and 6). Therefore, the resistive drop on
the board should be small enough so that output OVP does
not trigger, even during load transients.
Both the first stage and the second stage switch at a fixed
frequency for predictable EMI performance. Rectification of
the transformers output is accomplished with synchronous
rectifiers. These devices, which are MOSFETs with a very low
on-state resistance, dissipate far less energy than Schottky
diodes. This is the primary reason that the PowerQor
converter has such high efficiency, even at very low output
voltages and very high output currents.
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. The PowerQor converter can thus
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 eighthbrick converters uses the industry standard footprint and
pin-out configuration.

Applications Section
OUTPUT VOLTAGE TRIM (Pin 7): The TRIM input permits
the user to adjust the output voltage across the sense leads
up or down according to the trim range specifications.
To decrease the output voltage, the user should connect
a resistor between Pin 7 and Pin 6 (SENSE(-) input). For a
desired decrease of the nominal output voltage, the value
of the resistor should be:
Rtrim-down =
(
100%
Δ
) - 2(kΩ)
where
Δ% =
|
Vnominal – Vdesired
Vnominal
| x 100%
To decrease the output voltage, the user should connect
a resistor between Pin 7 and Pin 6 (SENSE(-) input). For a
desired decrease of the nominal output voltage, the value
of the resistor should be:
Rtrim-up =
(
) x VDES + VNOM
Vnominal
1.225 - 2
VDES – VNOM
kΩ
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 overvoltage 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 bypassed to eliminate noise.
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.

Protection Features
Input Under-Voltage Lockout: The converter is designed
to turn off when the input voltage is too low, helping avoid
an input system instability problem, described in more detail
in the application note titled “Input System Instability”. The
lockout circuitry is a comparator with DC hysteresis. When
the input voltage is rising, it must exceed the typical TurnOn Voltage Threshold value (listed on the specification
page) 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.
Input Over-Voltage Shutdown: Available on PQ48
models only. The converter turns off when the input voltage
is too high, allowing the converter to withstand an input
voltage as high as 100V without destruction. The shutdown
circuitry is a comparator with DC hysteresis. When the input
voltage exceeds the typical Input Over-Voltage Shutdown
value, the converter will turn off. Once the converter is off,
it will turn back on when the input voltage falls below the
minimum Input Over-Voltage Shutdown value.
Output Current Limit: The maximum current limit remains
constant as the output voltage drops. However, once the
impedance of the short across the output is small enough
to make the output voltage drop below the specified Output
DC Current-Limit Shutdown Voltage, the converter turns off.
The converter then enters a “hiccup mode” where it
repeatedly turns on and off at a 5 Hz (nominal) frequency
with a 5% duty cycle until the short circuit condition is
removed. This prevents excessive heating of the converter
or the load board.
Output Over-Voltage Limit: If the voltage across the
output pins exceeds the Output Over-Voltage Protection
threshold, the converter will immediately stop switching.
This prevents damage to the load circuit due to 1) excessive
series resistance in output current path from converter
output pins to sense point, 2) a release of a short-circuit
condition, or 3) a release of a current limit condition. Load
capacitance determines exactly how high the output voltage
will rise in response to these conditions. After 200 ms the
converter will automatically restart.
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.

APPLICATION CONSIDERATIONS
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 web
site (www.synqor.com) which provides an understanding of
why this instability arises, and shows the preferred solution
for correcting it.
Application Circuits: Figure D presented below provides
a typical circuit diagram which details the input filtering
and voltage trimming.
Input Filtering and External Input Capacitance:
Figure E below provides a diagram showing 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. More detailed information is
available in the application note titled “EMI Characteristics”
on the SynQor website.

Startup Inhibit Period: The Startup Inhibit Period ensures
that the converter will remain off for approximately 200ms
when it is shut down for any reason. When an output
short is present, this generates a 5Hz "hiccup mode," which
prevents the converter from overheating. In all, there are
seven ways that the converter can be shut down, initiating
a Startup Inhibit Period:
•
•
•
•
•
•
•

Figure F shows three turn-on scenarios, where a Startup
Inhibit Period is initiated at t0, t1, and t2:
Before time t0, when the input voltage is below the UVL
threshold, the unit is disabled by the Input Under-Voltage
Lockout feature. When the input voltage rises above the
UVL threshold, the Input Under-Voltage Lockout is released,
and a Startup Inhibit Period is initiated. At the end of this
delay, the ON/OFF pin is evaluated, and since it is active,
the unit turns on.
At time t1, the unit is disabled by the ON/OFF pin, and it
cannot be enabled again until the Startup Inhibit Period has
elapsed.
When the ON/OFF pin goes high after t2, the Startup Inhibit
Period has elapsed, and the output turns on within the
typical Turn-On Time.
