The control pin connects directly to the base of an internal transistor, and the switch off mechanism for the NCS1 works by forward biasing this NPN transistor. If the pin is left open (high impedance), the converter will be ON (there is no allowed low state for this pin), but once a control voltage is applied with sufficient drive current, the converter will be switched OFF. A suitable application circuit is shown below. D1 (e.g. 1N4003) is required to provide high impedence when the signal is low. From the NCS1 specification, the drive current to operate this function is recommended to be 3mA, and hence the value of R1 can be derived as follows: NCS1 VIN R2 VC OV -VIN R1 www.murata-ps.com D1 CTRL Q1 R1 = VC - VD - VQ IC Assuming VC=5V, VD=0.7V and VQ=1V: R1= 5 - 0.7 - 1.0 = 1100Ω 3 x 10-3 All enquiries: www.murata-ps.com/support KDC_NCS1.D01 Page 2 of 8 NCS1 Series Isolated 1W 4:1 Input Single Output DC/DC Converters TECHNICAL NOTES ISOLATION VOLTAGE ‘Hi Pot Test’, ‘Flash Tested’, ‘Withstand Voltage’, ‘Proof Voltage’, ‘Dielectric Withstand Voltage’ & ‘Isolation Test Voltage’ are all terms that relate to the same thing, a test voltage, applied for a specified time, across a component designed to provide electrical isolation, to verify the integrity of that isolation. Murata Power Solutions NCS1 series of DC/DC converters are all 100% production tested at their stated isolation voltage. This is 1kVDC for 1 second. A question commonly asked is, “What is the continuous voltage that can be applied across the part in normal operation?” The NCS1 has been recognized by Underwriters Laboratory for functional insulation, both input and output should normally be maintained within SELV limits i.e. less than 42.4V peak, or 60VDC. The isolation test voltage represents a measure of immunity to transient voltages and the part should never be used as an element of a safety isolation system. The part could be expected to function correctly with several hundred volts offset applied continuously across the isolation barrier; but then the circuitry on both sides of the barrier must be regarded as operating at an unsafe voltage and further isolation/insulation systems must form a barrier between these circuits and any user-accessible circuitry according to safety standard requirements. REPEATED HIGH-VOLTAGE ISOLATION TESTING It is well known that repeated high-voltage isolation testing of a barrier component can actually degrade isolation capability, to a lesser or greater degree depending on materials, construction and environment. The NCS1 series has toroidal isolation transformers, with no additional insulation between primary and secondary windings of enameled wire. While parts can be expected to withstand several times the stated test voltage, the isolation capability does depend on the wire insulation. Any material, including this enamel (typically polyurethane) is susceptible to eventual chemical degradation when subject to very high applied voltages thus implying that the number of tests should be strictly limited. We therefore strongly advise against repeated high voltage isolation testing, but if it is absolutely required, that the voltage be reduced by 20% from specified test voltage. This consideration equally applies to agency recognized parts rated for better than functional isolation where the wire enamel insulation is always supplemented by a further insulation system of physical spacing or barriers. SAFETY APPROVAL The NCS1 series has been recognized by Underwriters Laboratory (UL) to UL 60950 for functional insulation to a maximum case temperature of 105°C. File number E151252 applies. The NCS1 Series of converters are not internally fused so to meet the requirements of UL 60950 an anti-surge input line fuse should always be used with ratings as defined below. NCS1S12xxSC: 1A NCS1S24xxSC: 0.5A All fuses should be UL approved and rated to at least the maximum allowable DC input voltage.
