Modifications and customs for OEM’s
Exploiting high-frequency (170-200kHz), flyback
topologies and contemporary,
highly automated, SMT assembly techniques, BWR
Model DC/DC’s have enough room to include input
(pi type) and output filters within their package.
Offering true "plug-and-play" convenience, these
power converters require no external components.
They operate over the full –25 to +75°C temperature range with no output power derating.
4.5-9V ("D5" models), 9-18V ("D12" models) or
an ultra-wide 18-72V ("D48" models). Transient
response time is a quick 200μsec.
These extremely rugged modules are fully encapsulated with a thermally conductive potting compound. They are moisture and vibration resistant
and have established a reputation for outstanding
MTBF. For telecommunication, computer and other
EMI-sensitive applications, these DIP-packaged
DC/DC converters offer full EMI/EMC characterization data.
Industry-standard pinouts make DATEL’s BWR
Model 3W DC/DC’s ideal replacements for other
more costly, less reliable power converters. Similarly, they are excellent choices for new design-ins
in systems demanding small size, low cost and
high reliability.
Output voltages are either ±5, ±12 or ±15 Volts.

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 and perhaps added
internally upon request. Contact DATEL Applications Engineering for details.
➂ Devices can be screened or modified for higher guaranteed isolation voltages.
Contact DATEL Applications Engineering for details.
➃ Devices can be warranted or screened for lower-temperature operation.
Contact DATEL Applications Engineering for details. See DATEL's new BST 3W Models
for guaranteed operation to –40°C.
Since these are isolated DC/DC converters, their outputs are "floating." Any
BWR model may be configured to produce an output of 10V, 24V or 30V
(for ±5V, ±12V or ±15V models, respectively) by applying the load across
the +Output and –Output pins (pins 6 and 8), with either output grounded.
The Common (pins 5 and 7) should be left open. Minimum 20% loading is
recommended under these conditions.
Filtering and Noise Reduction
All BWR 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. Output capacitors
should be connected between their respective output pin (pin 6 or 8) and
Common (pins 5 and 7) as shown in Figure 2. 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.

In critical, space-sensitive applications, DATEL may be able to tailor the internal input/output filtering of these units to meet your specific requirements.

If you’re designing with EMC in mind, note that all of DATEL’s BWR 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
BWR-5/250-D12 appear below. Published EMC test reports are available for
each model number. Contact DATEL’s Applications Engineering Department
for more details.
