Product Description
• OV, OC, UV, short circuit and thermal protection
The BCM6123xD1E5135yzz Bus Converter (BCM®) is a high
efficiency Sine Amplitude Converter™ (SAC™), operating from
a 260 to 410VDC primary bus to deliver an isolated, ratiometric
secondary voltage from 32.5 to 51.3VDC.
• 6123 through-hole ChiP package
■■2.494” x 0.898” x 0.284”
(63.34mm x 22.80mm x 7.21mm)
• PMBus™ management interface*
Typical Applications
• 380VDC Power Distribution
• High End Computing Systems
• Automated Test Equipment
• Industrial Systems
• High Density Power Supplies
• Communications Systems
• Transportation
The BCM6123xD1E5135yzz offers low noise, fast transient
response, and industry leading efficiency and power density. In
addition, it provides an AC impedance beyond the bandwidth of
most downstream regulators, allowing input capacitance normally
located at the input of a PoL regulator to be located at the primary
side of the BCM module. With a primary to secondary K factor
of 1/8, that capacitance value can be reduced by a factor of 64x,
resulting in savings of board area, material and total system cost.
Leveraging the thermal and density benefits of Vicor ChiP
packaging technology, the BCM module offers flexible thermal
management options with very low top and bottom side thermal
impedances. Thermally-adept ChiP-based power components,
enable customers to achieve low cost power system solutions
with previously unattainable system size, weight and efficiency
attributes, quickly and predictably.
This product can operate in reverse direction, at full rated power,
after being previously started in forward direction.

Auxiliary Voltage Source
• The VAUX pin is a standard analog I/O configured as an output from an internal µC.
• VAUX is internally connected to µC output as internally pulled high to a 3.3V regulator with 2% tolerance, a 1% resistor of 1.5kΩ.
• VAUX can be used as a “Ready to process full power” flag. This pin transitions VAUX voltage after a 2ms delay from the start of powertrain activating,
signaling the end of softstart.
• VAUX can be used as “Fault flag”. This pin is pulled low internally when a fault protection is detected.

The PMBus communication enabled bus converter provides accurate telemetry monitoring and reporting, threshold and warning
limits adjustment, in addition to corresponding status flags.
The BCM internal µC is referenced to primary ground. The Digital Isolator allows UART communication interface with the host Digital
Supervisor at typical speed of 750kHz across the isolation barrier. One of the advantages of the Digital Isolator is its low power
consumption. Each transmission channel is able to draw its internal bias circuitry directly from the input signal being transmitted to
the output with minimal to no signal distortion.
The Digital Supervisor provides the host system µC with access to an array of up to 4 BCMs. This array is constantly polled for status
by the Digital Supervisor. Direct communication to individual BCM is enabled by a page command. For example, the page (0x00)
prior to a telemetry inquiry points to the Digital Supervisor data and pages (0x01 – 0x04) prior to a telemetry inquiry points to the
array of BCMs connected data. The Digital Supervisor constantly polls the BCM data through the UART interface.
The Digital Supervisor enables the PMBus compatible host interface with an operating bus speed of up to 400kHz. The Digital
Supervisor follows the PMBus command structure and specification.
Please refer to the Digital Supervisor data sheet for more details.

Figure 19 — BCM module AC model
The Sine Amplitude Converter (SAC™) uses a high frequency
resonant tank to move energy from Primary to secondary and
vice versa. The resonant LC tank, operated at high frequency,
is amplitude modulated as a function of primary voltage and
secondary current. A small amount of capacitance embedded in
the primary and secondary stages of the module is sufficient for full
functionality and is key to achieving high power density.
Eq. (3) now becomes Eq. (1) and is essentially load independent,
resistor R is now placed in series with VPRI.

The relationship between VPRI and VSEC becomes:

In the presence of load, VSEC is represented by:
VSEC = VPRI • K – ISEC • RSEC
Substituting the simplified version of Eq. (4)
(IPRI_Q is assumed = 0A) into Eq. (5) yields:
(3)
VSEC = VPRI • K – ISEC • R • K2
and ISEC is represented by:
ISEC =
IPRI – IPRI_Q
K
(6)
This is similar in form to Eq. (3), where RSEC is used to represent the
characteristic impedance of the SAC™. However, in this case a real
R on the primary side of the SAC is effectively scaled by K 2 with
respect to the secondary.
(4)
RSEC represents the impedance of the SAC, and is a function of
the RDSON of the primary and secondary MOSFETs and the winding
resistance of the power transformer. IPRI_Q represents the quiescent
current of the SAC control, gate drive circuitry, and core losses.
Assuming that R = 1Ω, the effective R as seen from the secondary
side is 16mΩ, with K = 1/8.
The use of DC voltage transformation provides additional
interesting attributes. Assuming that RSEC = 0Ω and IPRI_Q = 0A,

A similar exercise should be performed with the additon of
a capacitor or shunt impedance at the primary input to the
SAC. A switch in series with VPRI is added to the circuit. This is
depicted in Figure 21.
Low impedance is a key requirement for powering a highcurrent, low-voltage load efficiently. A switching regulation stage
should have minimal impedance while simultaneously providing
appropriate filtering for any switched current. The use of a SAC
between the regulation stage and the point of load provides a
dual benefit of scaling down series impedance leading back to
the source and scaling up shunt capacitance or energy storage
as a function of its K factor squared. However, the benefits are
not useful if the series impedance of the SAC is too high. The
impedance of the SAC must be low, i.e. well beyond the crossover
frequency of the system.

A solution for keeping the impedance of the SAC low involves
switching at a high frequency. This enables small magnetic
components because magnetizing currents remain low. Small
magnetics mean small path lengths for turns. Use of low loss core
material at high frequencies also reduces core losses.

The two main terms of power loss in the BCM module are:
A change in VPRI with the switch closed would result in a change in

No load power dissipation (PPRI_NL): defined as the power

Assume that with the capacitor charged to VPRI, the switch is
opened and the capacitor is discharged through the idealized
SAC. In this case,
Therefore,

The equation in terms of the output has yielded a K 2 scaling factor

A K factor less than unity results in an effectively larger capacitance
on the secondary when expressed in terms of the primary. With a
K = 1/8 as shown in Figure 21, C = 1µF would appear as
C = 64µF when viewed from the secondary.

Input and Output Filter Design
Thermal Considerations
A major advantage of SAC™ systems versus conventional PWM
converters is that the transformer based SAC does not require
external filtering to function properly. The resonant LC tank,
operated at extreme high frequency, is amplitude modulated as a
function of primary voltage and secondary current and efficiently
transfers charge through the isolation transformer. A small amount
of capacitance embedded in the primary and secondary stages
of the module is sufficient for full functionality and is key to
achieving power density.
The ChiP package provides a high degree of flexibility in that it
presents three pathways to remove heat from internal power
dissipating components. Heat may be removed from the top
surface, the bottom surface and the leads. The extent to which
these three surfaces are cooled is a key component for determining
the maximum current that is available from a ChiP, as can be
seen from Figure 1.
This paradigm shift requires system design to carefully evaluate
external filters in order to:
nn
Guarantee low source impedance:
To take full advantage of the BCM module’s dynamic response,
the impedance presented to its primary terminals must be low
from DC to approximately 5MHz. The connection of the bus
converter module to its power source should be implemented
with minimal distribution inductance. If the interconnect
inductance exceeds 100nH, the input should be bypassed with a
RC damper to retain low source impedance and stable operation.
With an interconnect inductance of 200nH, the RC damper
may be as high as 1µF in series with 0.3Ω. A single electrolytic
or equivalent low-Q capacitor may be used in place of the
series RC bypass.
Since the ChiP has a maximum internal temperature rating, it is
necessary to estimate this internal temperature based on a real
thermal solution. Given that there are three pathways to remove
heat from the ChiP, it is helpful to simplify the thermal solution into
a roughly equivalent circuit where power dissipation is modeled as
a current source, isothermal surface temperatures are represented
as voltage sources and the thermal resistances are represented as
resistors. Figure 22 shows the “thermal circuit” for a 6123 BCM in
an application where the top, bottom, and leads are cooled. In this
case, the BCM power dissipation is PDTOTAL and the three surface
temperatures are represented as TCASE_TOP,
TCASE_BOTTOM, and TLEADS. This thermal system can now be very
easily analyzed using a SPICE simulator with simple resistors,
voltage sources, and a current source. The results of the simulation
would provide an estimate of heat flow through the various
pathways as well as internal temperature.
nn
Further reduce primary and/or secondary voltage ripple without
sacrificing dynamic response:
Thermal Resistance Top
Given the wide bandwidth of the module, the source response
is generally the limiting factor in the overall system response.
Anomalies in the response of the primary source will appear at
the secondary of the module multiplied by its K factor.
Thermal Resistance Bottom
Power Dissipation (W)
The module primary/secondary voltage ranges shall not be
exceeded. An internal overvoltage lockout function prevents
operation outside of the normal operating primary range. Even
when disabled, the powertrain is exposed to the applied voltage
and power MOSFETs must withstand it.
Total load capacitance at the secondary of the BCM module shall
not exceed the specified maximum. Owing to the wide bandwidth
and low secondary impedance of the module, low-frequency
bypass capacitance and significant energy storage may be more
densely and efficiently provided by adding capacitance at the
primary of the module. At frequencies <500kHz the module
appears as an impedance of RSEC between the source and load.
Within this frequency range, capacitance at the primary appears as
effective capacitance on the secondary per the relationship
defined in Eq. (13).

TINT – PD2 • θINT-BOTTOM = TCASE_BOTTOM
TINT – PD3 • θINT-LEADS = TLEADS
PDTOTAL = PD1+ PD2+ PD3

PD3 represent the heat flow through the top side, bottom side, and
leads respectively.

Fuse Selection
In order to provide flexibility in configuring power systems
ChiP modules are not internally fused. Input line fusing
of ChiP products is recommended at system level to provide
thermal protection in case of catastrophic failure.
TINT – PD1 • θINT-TOP = TCASE_TOP
PDTOTAL = PD1
Please note that Vicor has a suite of online tools, including a
simulator and thermal estimator which greatly simplify the task of
determining whether or not a BCM thermal configuration is valid
for a given condition. These tools can be found at:
http://www.vicorpower.com/powerbench..
The performance of the SAC™ topology is based on efficient
transfer of energy through a transformer without the need of
closed loop control. For this reason, the transfer characteristic
can be approximated by an ideal transformer with a positive
temperature coefficient series resistance.
This type of characteristic is close to the impedance characteristic
of a DC power distribution system both in dynamic (AC) behavior
and for steady state (DC) operation.
When multiple BCM modules of a given part number are
connected in an array they will inherently share the load current
according to the equivalent impedance divider that the system
implements from the power source to the point of load.
Some general recommendations to achieve matched array
impedances include:
nn
Dedicate common copper planes within the PCB to deliver and
return the current to the modules.
nn
Provide as symmetric a PCB layout as possible among modules
nn
An input filter is required for an array of BCMs in order to prevent circulating currents.
The fuse shall be selected by closely matching system
requirements with the following characteristics:
nn
Current rating
(usually greater than maximum current of BCM module)
nn
Maximum voltage rating
(usually greater than the maximum possible input voltage)
nn
Ambient temperature
nn
Nominal melting I2t
nn
Recommend fuse: See safety agency approvals.
Reverse Operation
BCM modules are capable of reverse power operation. Once the
unit is started, energy will be transferred from the secondary back
to the primary whenever the secondary voltage exceeds VPRI • K.
The module will continue operation in this fashion for as long as
no faults occur.
Transient operation in reverse is expected in cases where there is
significant energy storage on the output and transient voltages
appear on the input.
The BCM6123xD1E5135y0R and BCM6123xD1E5135y0P are both
qualified for continuous operation in reverse power condition. A
primary voltage of VPRI_DC > VPRI_UVLO+_R must be applied first to
allow the primary reference controller and power train to start.
Continuous operation in reverse is then possible after a
successful startup.

in High Power Arrays.
