ADVANCE INFORMATION
Description
Ordering Information
The PT3660 Excalibur™ Series
is a 30-A rated, dual-output isolated
DC/DC converter that combines
state-of-the-art power conversion
technology with unparalleled flexibility. These modules operate from
a standard telecom (–48V) central
office (CO) supply to produce two
independantly regulated outputs.
The PT3660 series is characterized
with high efficiencies and ultra-fast
transient response, and incorporates
many features to facilitate system
integration. These include a flexible
“On/Off” enable control, output
current limit, over-temperature
protection, and an input undervoltage lockout. In addition, both
output voltages are designed to meet
the power-up/power-down sequencing requirements of popular DSP
ICs.
The PT3660 series is housed in
space-saving solderable copper case.
The package does not require a
heatsink and is available in both
vertical and horizontal configurations, including surface mount. The
‘N’ configuration occupies less than 2
in² of PCB area.
This product is pin-compatible
with the PT4660 series.

Note: Shaded functions indicate signals that are
referenced to the input (-Vin) potential.
Notes:
Logic 1 =Open collector
Logic 0 = –Vin (pin 2) potential
For positive Enable function, connect pin 3
to pin 2 and use pin 4.
For negative Enable function, leave pin 4
open and use pin 3.
+Vin: The positive input supply for the module with
respect to –Vin. When powering the module from a
–48V telecom central office supply, this input is
connected to the primary system ground.
–Vin: The negative input supply for the module, and
the 0VDC reference for the EN 1, EN 2, TEMP, and
AUX signals. When the module is powered from a
+48V supply, this input is connected to the 48V–Return.
EN 1: The negative logic input that enables the
module output. This pin is TTL compatible and
referenced to –Vin. A logic ‘0’ at this pin enables the
module’s outputs. A logic ‘1’ or high impedance
disables the module’s outputs. If not used, the pin
must be connected to –Vin.
EN 2: The positive logic input that enables the
module output. This pin is TTL compatible and
referenced to –Vin. A logic ‘1’ or high impedance
enables the module’s outputs. If not used, the pin
should be left open circuit.
TEMP: This is the output voltage produced by the
module’s internal temperature sensor. The voltage at
this pin is referenced to –Vin and rises approximately
10mV/°C from an intital value of 0.1VDC at –40°C
(Vtemp =0.5 + 0.01·Tsense). The signal is available
whenever the module is supplied with a valid input
voltage, and is independant of the enable logic status.
(Note: A load impedance of less than 1MΩ will adversly
affect the module’s over-temperature shutdown threshold.
Use a high-impedance input when monitoring this
signal.)
AUX: Produces a regulated output voltage of 11.6V
±5%, which is referenced to –Vin. The current drawn
from the pin must be limited to 10mA. The voltage
may be used to indicate the output status of the
module to a primary referenced circuit, or power a
low-current amplifer.
Vo1: The higher regulated output voltage, which is
referenced to the COM node.
Vo2: The lower regulated output voltage, which is
referenced to the COM node.
COM: The secondary return reference for the module’s
two regulated output voltages. It is DC isolated from
the input supply pins.
Vo1 Adjust: Using a single resistor, this pin allows Vo1
to be adjusted higher or lower than the preset value.
If not used, this pin should be left open circuit.
Vo2 Adjust: Using a single resistor, this pin allows Vo2
to be adjusted higher or lower than the preset value.
If not used, this pin should be left open circuit.

Notes: (1) This is a fixed parameter. Adjusting Vo1 or Vo2 higher will increase the module’s sensitivity to over-voltage detection. For more information, see the
application note on output voltage adjustment.
(2) The EN 1 and EN2 control inputs (pins 3 & 4) have internal pull-ups and may be controlled with an open-collector (or open-drain) transistor. Both
inputs are diode protected and can be connected to +Vin . The maximum open-circuit voltage is 5.4V.
(3) Voltage output at “TEMP” pin is defined by the equation:- VTEMP = 0.5 + 0.01·T, where T is in °C. See pin descriptions for more information.
(4) See SOA curves or consult the factory for the appropriate derating.
(5) During solder reflow of SMD package version do not elevate the module case, pins, or internal component temperatures above a peak of 215°C. For
further guidance refer to the application note, “Reflow Soldering Requirements for Plug-in Power Surface Mount Products,” (SLTA051).
(6) The case pins on the through-holed package types (suffixes N & A) must be soldered. For more information see the applicable package outline drawing.

Application Notes
PT3660, PT4660 & PT4680 Series
Operating Features & System Considerations for the
PT3660/4660/4680 Dual-Output Converters
Over-Current Protection
Under-Voltage Lock-Out
The dual-outputs of the PT3660, PT4660, and PT4680
series of DC/DC converters have independent output
voltage regulation and current limit control. Applying a
load current in excess of the current limit threshold at
either output will cause the respective output voltage to
drop. However, the voltage at Vo2 is derived from Vo1.
Therefore a current limit fault on Vo1 will also cause Vo2
to drop. Conversely, a current limit fault applied to Vo2
will only cause Vo2 voltage to drop, and Vo1 will remain
in regulation.
The Under-Voltage Lock-Out (UVLO) circuit prevents
operation of the converter whenever the input voltage to
the module is insufficient to maintain output regulation.
The UVLO has approximately 2V of hysterisis. This is
to prevent oscillation with a slowly changing input voltage. Below the UVLO threshold the module is off and
the enable control inputs, EN1 and EN2 are inoperative.
The current limit circuitry incorporates a limited amount
of foldback. The fault current flowing into an absolute
short circuit is therefore slightly less than the current
limit threshold. Recovery from a current limit fault is
automatic and the converter will not be damaged by a
continuous short circuit at either output.
Output Over-Voltage Protection
Each output is monitored for over voltage (OV). For fail
safe operation and redundancy, the OV fault detection
circuitry uses a separate reference to the voltage regulation circuits. The OV threshold is fixed, and set nominally
25% higher than the set-point output voltage. If either
output exceeds the threshold, the converter is shutdown
and must be actively reset. The OV protection circuit
can be reset by momentarily turning the converter off.
This is accomplished by either cycling one of the output
enable control pins (EN1 or EN2), or by removing the
input power to the converter. Note: If Vo1 or Vo2 is adjusted
to a higher voltage, the margin between the respective steadystate output voltage and its OV threshold is reduced. This can
make the module sensitive to OV fault detection, that may
result from random noise and load transients.
Over-Temperature Protection
The converter has an internal temperature sensor. At a
case temperature of approximately 115°C the converter
will shut down, and will automatically restart when the
temperature returns to about 100°C. The analog voltage
generated by the sensor is also made available at the
‘TEMP’ output (pin 5), and can be monitored by the
host system for diagnostic purposes. Consult the ‘Pin
Descriptions’ section of the data sheet for further information on this feature.
Primary-Secondary Isolation
The PT4460/80 and PT3660 series of DC/DC converters
incorporate electrical isolation between the input terminals (primary) and the output terminals (secondary). All
converters are production tested to a withstand voltage
of 1500VDC. The isolation complies with UL60950 and
EN60950, and the requirements for operational isolation.
This allows the converter to be configured for either a
positive or negative input voltage source.
The regulation control circuitry for these modules is
located on the secondary (output) side of the isolation
barrier. Control signals are passed between the primary
and secondary sides of the converter via a proprietory
magnetic coupling scheme. This eliminates the use of
opto-couplers. The data sheet ‘Pin Descriptions’ and
‘Pin-Out Information’ provides guidance as to which
reference (primary or secondary) that must be used for
each of the external control signals.
Fuse Requirements
To comply with safety agency requirements, these converters must be operated with an external input fuse.
A fast-acting 250-V fuse is required. Table 1-1 gives
the recommended current rating for the product series
being used.

PT3660, PT4660 & PT4680 Series
Using the On/Off Enable Controls on the PT3660/
4660/4680 Series of Dual-Output Converters
The PT3660/4660 (48V input) and PT4680 (24V input)
series of dual-output DC/DC converters incorporate
both positive and negative logic Output Enable controls.
EN1 (pin 3) is the positive enable input, and EN2 (pin 4)
is the negative enable input. Both inputs are TTL logic
compatible, and are electrically referenced to -Vin (pin 2)
on the primary (input) side of the converter. A pull-up
resistor is not required, but may be added if desired.
Adding a pull-up resistor from either input, up to +Vin,
will not damage the converter.
the outputs of the converter. An example of this configuration is detailed in Figure 2-2. Note: The converter will
only produce and output voltage if a valid input voltage is
applied to ±Vin.

Automatic (UVLO) Power-Up
Connecting EN1 (pin 3) to -Vin (pin 2) and leaving EN2
(pin 4) open-circuit configures the converter for automatic
power up. (See data sheet “Typical Application”). The
converter control circuitry incorporates an “Under Voltage
Lockout” (UVLO) function, which disables the output
until the minimum specified input voltage is present at
±Vin. (See data sheet Specifications). The UVLO circuitry
ensures a clean transition during power-up and powerdown, allowing the converter to tolerate a slow-rising
input voltage. For most applications EN1 and EN2, can
be configured for automatic power-up.
Positive Output Enable (Negative Inhibit)
To configure the converter for a positive enable function,
connect EN1 (pin 3) to -Vin (pin 2), and apply the system
On/Off control signal to EN2 (pin 4). In this configuration, a logic ‘0’ (-Vin potential) applied to pin 4 disables
the converter outputs. An example of this configuration
is detailed in Figure 2-1.
Figure 2-1; Positive Enable Configuration

On/Off Output Voltage Sequencing
The output voltages from these dual-output DC/DC
converters are independantly regulated, and are internally sequenced to meet the power-up requirements of
popular microprocessor and DSP chipsets. Figure 2-3
shows the waveforms from a PT4661 after the converter
is enabled at t=0s. During power-up, the Vo1 and Vo 2
voltage waveforms typically track within 0.4V prior to
Vo2 reaching regulation. The waveforms were measured
with a 5-Adc resistive load at each output, and with a
48-VDC input source applied. The converter typically
produces a fully regulated output within 25ms. The
actual turn-on time will vary slightly with input voltage,
but the power-up sequence is independent of the load at
either output.

Negative Output Enable (Positive Inhibit)
To configure the converter for a negative enable function,
EN2 (pin 4) is left open circuit, and the system On/Off
control signal is applied to EN1 (pin 3). A logic ‘0’ (-Vin
potential) must then be applied to pin 3 in order to enable
During turn-off, both outputs drop rapidly due to the
discharging effect of actively switched rectifiers. The
voltage at Vo 1 remains higher than Vo2 during this
period. The discharge time is typically 100µs, but will
vary with the amount of external load capacitance.

Adjusting the Output Voltage of the PT3660,
PT4660, and PT4680 Dual-Output Converters
3. Vo2 must always be at least 0.3V lower than Vo1.
4. The over-voltage protection threshold is fixed, and is set
nominally 25% above the set-point output voltage.
Adjusting Vo1 or Vo2 higher will reduce the voltage
margin between the respective steady-state output
voltage and its over-voltage (OV) protection threshold.
This could make the module sensitive to OV fault
detection, as a result of random noise and load transients.
Note: An OV fault is a latched condition that shuts down
both outputs of the converter. The fault can only be cleared
by cycling one of the Enable control pins (EN1* / EN2), or
by momentarily removing the input power to the module.
The dual output voltages from the PT3660/PT4660
(48V Bus), and PT4680 (24V Bus) series of DC/DC
converters can be independently adjusted by up to 10%,
higher or lower than the factory trimmed pre-set voltage.
The adjustment requires the addition of a single external
resistor 1. Table 3-1 gives the adjustment range of Vo1
and Vo2 for each model in the series as V a(min) and
V a(max).
Vo1 Adjust Down: Add a resistor (R1), between pin 13
(V1 Adj) and pin 12 (Vo1) 2.
5. Never connect capacitors to either the Vo1 Adjust or
Vo2 Adjust pins. Any capacitance added to these control
pins will affect the stability of the respective regulated
output.
Vo1 Adjust Up: To increase the output, add a resistor R2
between pin 13 (V1 Adj) and pin 14 (COM) 2, 4.
Vo2 Adjust Down: Add a resistor (R3) between pin 20
(V2 Adj) and pin 21 (Vo2) 2.
The adjust up and adjust down resistor values can also be
calculated using the following formulas. Be sure to select
the correct formula parameter from Table 3-1 for the
output and model being adjusted.
Vo2 Adjust Up: Add a resistor R4 between pin 20
(V2 Adj) and pins 19 (COM) 2, 4.
Refer to Figure 3-1 and Table 3-2 for both the placement and
value of the required resistor.
