BASIC OPERATION AND FEATURES
CONTROL FEATURES
With voltages dropping and currents rising, the economics
of an Intermediate Bus Architecture (IBA) are becoming
more attractive, especially in systems requiring multiple
low voltages. IBA systems separate the role of isolation and
voltage scaling from regulation and sensing. The BusQor
series bus converter provides isolation and an unregulated
voltage step down in one compact module, leaving regulation
to simpler, less expensive non-isolated converters.
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(-).
In the negative logic version, the ON/OFF signal is active
low (meaning that a low turns the converter on). Figure B
is a detailed look of the internal ON/OFF circuitry.
5V
In Figure A below, the BusQor module provides the isolation
stage of the IBA system. The isolated bus then distributes
power to the non-isolated buck regulators to generate the
required voltage levels at the points of load. In this case, the
bucks are represented with SynQor’s NiQor series of nonisolated DC-DC converters. In many applications requiring
multiple low voltage outputs, significant savings can be
achieved in board space and overall system costs.
When designing an IBA system with bus converters, the
designer can select from a variety of bus voltages. While
there is no universally ideal bus voltage, most designs
employ one of the following: 31 V, 28 V, 24 V, 12 V, 9.6 V, or
6 V. Higher bus voltages can lead to lower efficiency for the
buck regulators but are more efficient for the bus converter
and provide lower board level distribution current. Lower
bus voltages offer the opposite trade offs.
SynQor’s BusQor modules act as a true dc transformer. The
output voltage is proportional to the input voltage, with a
specified “turns ratio” or voltage ratio, plus minor drop from
the internal resistive losses in the module. When used in
IBA systems, the output variation of the BusQor must be in
accordance with the input voltage range of the non-isolated
converters being employed.
The BusQor architecture is very scalable, meaning multiple
bus converters can be connected directly in parallel to allow
current sharing for higher power applications.

source that is in the 500 kHz to 600 kHz range. A pulse train
at the desired frequency should be applied to the CLK SYNC
pin (pin 3) with respect to the INPUT RETURN (pin 4). This
pulse train should have a duty cycle in the 20% to 80%
range. Its low value should be below 0.8 V to be guaranteed
to be interpreted as a logic low, and its high value should be
above 2.0 V to be guaranteed to be interpreted as a logic
high. The transition time between the two states should be
less than 300 ns.
If the converter is not to be synchronized, the CLK SYNC pin
should be left open circuit. The converter will then operate
in its free-running mode at a frequency of approximately
550 kHz (twice the switching frequency).
If, due to a fault, the CLK SYNC pin is held in either a
logic low or logic high state continuously, or the CLK SYNC
frequency is outside the 500-600 kHz range, the converter
will revert to its free-running frequency.

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.
Also see Figure F.
Input Over-Voltage Shutdown: The converter also has
a two stage over-voltage feature that limits the converter's
duty cycle for 100 ms before shutdown and a higher second
level with no delay before shutdown if the input voltage
is too high (See the Input Over-Voltage Shutdown section
in the Electrical Characteristics Table for specific voltage
levels). It also has a hysteresis and time delay to ensure
proper operation.
Output Current Limit: The output of the BusQor module
is electronically protected against output overloads. When
an overload current greater than the “DC Current-Limit
Inception” specification is drawn from the output, the output
shuts down to zero volt in a period of 1ms typical (see Figure
D). The shutdown period lasts for a typical period of 250 ms
(Figure E) after which the BusQor tries to power up again
(10 ms). If the overload persists, the output voltage will
go through repeated cycles of shutdown and restart with a
duty cycle of 4% (On) and 96% (Off) respectively.

The BusQor module returns (auto resetting) to normal
operation once the overload is removed. The BusQor is
designed to survive in this mode indefinitely without damage
and without human intervention.
Output Short Circuit Protection: When the output of
the BusQor module is shorted, a peak current of typically
130 A will flow into the short circuit for a period not greater
than 1 ms (typically 200 uS). The output of the BusQor will
shutdown to zero for ~ 250 mS (Figure E). At the end of
the shutdown period the BusQor module tries to power up
again. If the short circuit persists, the output voltage will
go through repeated cycles of shutdown and restart with
a duty cycle of 4% (On) and 96% (Off) respectively. The
BusQor module returns (auto resetting) to normal operation
once the short circuit is removed. The BusQor is designed
to survive in this mode indefinitely without damage and
without human intervention.
In the Auto resetting mode, also referred to as “Hiccup”
mode, the power drawn from the 385 V input is about ~10
Watts, most of which is dissipated into the external fault. It
is important that copper traces and pads from the output
circuit be designed to withstand the short term peaks,
although the average current into the fault may be as low
as 0.04 A typical. See Figure 17 for appropriate waveform.
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
Start-Up Inhibit Period: Figure F details the Start-Up
Inhibit Period for the BusQor module. At time t0, when Vin
is applied with On/Off pin asserted (enabled), the BusQor
output begins to build up. Before time t1, 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 UnderVoltage Lockout is released, and a typical Initial Startup
Inhibit Period of 70 ms is initiated. The output builds up to
90% of the nominal value of 13.6 V in a period of 20 ms
typical (50% load).
At time t2, when the On/Off pin is de-asserted (disabled),
the BusQor output instantly drops to 0 V. Fall time from
13.6 V to 0 V is dependent on output capacitance and any
parasitic trace inductance in the output load circuit.
At time t3, when the On/Off pin is re-asserted (enabled),
the BusQor module output begins to build up after the
inhibit period of 250 ms typical has elapsed.
Refer to the Control Features section of the data sheet
for details on enabling and disabling methods for Bus Qor
modules.
Thermal Derating Test Setup
The curves showing the derating of output current
and power as a function of the base plate temperature
temperature, are taken with the oven setup shown in Fig.
G. The converter module is soldered to a carrier PCB that
is mounted horizontally within an oven. The carrier PCB is
a four layer 4 oz PCB. A large aluminum heatsink (thermal
grease is applied between the base plate and the heatsink
interface to minimize the thermal impedance) is attached to
the baseplate to keep the baseplate temperature constant
during thermal testing. A small hole is drilled through the
heatsink in order to attach a thermocouple to the baseplate
of the DTU. Additional thermocouples are attached to
the hottest components before base plating to monitor
the internal temperature of all of the critical components
during testing. The oven temperature is controlled so as
to keep the base plate temperature to the desired value.
The base plate temperature is kept at 100 oC or below for
all conditions. If the temperature of an internal component
exceeds 125 oC, the output current (power level) is reduced
so as to keep the temperature of all internal components
below 125 oC.

Deviation from 50/50 Sharing (%)
Current Sharing: BusQor modules are designed to operate
in parallel without the use of any external current share
circuitry. A typical (recommended) circuit for paralleling two
BusQor modules is shown in Figure I. An output capacitor
is recommended across each module and located close
to the converter for optimum filtering and noise control
performance. Dedicated input inductors are recommended
but are considered optional. Input capacitors must be
located close to the converter module. PCB layout in the
input circuit should be such that high frequency ripple
currents of each module is restricted to a loop formed by
the input capacitors and the input terminals of the BusQor
module. See Figure I for details on PCB layout. Contact
SynQor application engineering for further assistance on
PCB trace design.
The current share performance of two paralleled modules
is illustrated in the graph in Figure H. In this graph the
percent deviation from ideal sharing (50%) is plotted for
each module versus the total output load current at 385
Vin. Two BQ4H Bus Qor’s will share within 10% at higher
loads. The current share accuracy is affected by changes in
the gate drive timing as a function of load. The gate drive
timing is adjusted as a function of load to better optimize
the product efficiency over line and load (performance).
