C 09/14/15 Page 10 MQBL-28-05D Output: ±5V Current: 4A Total Application Section BASIC OPERATION AND FEATURES The MQBL DC/DC converter uses a two-stage power conversion topology. The first, or regulation, stage is a buck-converter that keeps the output voltage constant over variations in line, load, and temperature. The second, or isolation, stage uses transformers to provide the functions of input/output isolation and voltage transformation to achieve the output voltage required. In the dual output converter there are two secondary windings in the transformer of the isolation stage, one for each output. There is only one regulation stage, however, and it is used to control the positive output. The negative output therefore displays “Cross-Regulation”, meaning that its output voltage depends on how much current is drawn from each output. output over-voltage limit. There is also an output current limit that is nearly constant as the load impedance decreases (i.e., there is not fold-back or fold-forward characteristic to the output current under this condition). When a load fault is removed, the output voltage rises exponentially to its nominal value without an overshoot. If a load fault pulls the output voltage below about 60% of nominal, the converter will shut down to attempt to clear the load fault. After a short delay it will try to auto-restart. The MQBL converter’s control circuit does not implement an over-temperature shutdown. The following sections describe the use and operation of additional control features provided by the MQBL converter. CONTROL FEATURES Both the positive and the negative outputs share a common OUTPUT RETURN pin. Both the regulation and the isolation stages switch at a fixed frequency for predictable EMI performance. The isolation stage switches at one half the frequency of the regulation stage, but due to the push-pull nature of this stage it creates a ripple at double its switching frequency. As a result, both the input and the output of the converter have a fundamental ripple frequency of about 550 kHz in the free-running mode. Rectification of the isolation stage’s output is accomplished with synchronous rectifiers. These devices, which are MOSFETs with a very low resistance, dissipate far less energy than would Schottky diodes. This is the primary reason why the MQBL converters have such high efficiency, particularly at low output voltages. Besides improving efficiency, the synchronous rectifiers permit operation down to zero load current. There is no longer a need for a minimum load, as is typical for converters that use diodes for rectification. The synchronous rectifiers actually permit a negative load current to flow back into the converter’s output terminals if the load is a source of short or long term energy. The MQBL converters employ a “backdrive current limit” to keep this negative output terminal current small. There is a control circuit in the MQBL converter that determines the conduction state of the power switches. It communicates across the isolation barrier through a magnetically coupled device. No opto-isolators are used. An input under-voltage shutdown feature with hysteresis is provided, as well as an input over-voltage shutdown and an Product# MQBL-28-05D Phone 1-888-567-9596 5V 82.5K PIN4 PIN2 ENA1 10K TO ENABLE CIRCUITRY IN RTN Figure A: Circuit diagram shown for reference only, actual circuit components may differ from values shown for equivalent circuit. ENABLE: The MQBL converter has one enable pin, ENA1 (pin 4), which is referenced with respect to the converter’s input return (pin 2). It must have a logic high level for the converter to be enabled; a logic low inhibits the converter. The enable pin is internally pulled high so that an open connection will enable the converter. Figure A shows the equivalent circuit looking into the enable pin. It is TTL compatible and has hysteresis. SHUT DOWN: The MQBL converter will shut down in response to only five conditions: ENA input low, VIN input below under-voltage shutdown threshold, VIN input above over-voltage shutdown threshold, output voltage below the output under-voltage threshold, and output voltage above the output over-voltage threshold. Following any shutdown event, there is a startup inhibit delay which will prevent the converter from restarting for approximately 100ms. After the 100ms delay elapses, if the enable inputs are high and the input voltage is within the operating range, the converter www.SynQor.com Doc.# 005-0006202 Rev. C 09/14/15 Page 11 MQBL-28-05D Output: ±5V Current: 4A Total Application Section will restart. If the VIN input is brought down to nearly 0V and back into the operating range, there is no startup inhibit, and the output voltage will rise according to the “Turn-On Delay, Rising Vin” specification. SYNCHRONIZATION: The MQBL converter’s switching frequency can be synchronized to an external frequency source that is in the 500 kHz to 700 kHz range. A pulse train at the desired frequency should be applied to the SYNC IN pin (pin 6) with respect to the INPUT RETURN (pin 2). This pulse train should have a duty cycle in the 20% to 80% range. Its low value should be below 0.8V to be guaranteed to be interpreted as a logic low, and its high value should be above 2.0V to be guaranteed to be interpreted as a logic high. The transition time between the two states should be less than 300ns. If the MQBL converter is not to be synchronized, the SYNC IN pin should be left open circuit. The converter will then operate in its free-running mode at a frequency of approximately 550 kHz. If, due to a fault, the SYNC IN pin is held in either a logic low or logic high state continuously, or the SYNC IN frequency is outside the 500-700 kHz range, the MQBL converter will revert to its free-running frequency. The MQBL converter also has a SYNC OUT pin (pin 5). This output can be used to drive the SYNC IN pins of as many as ten (10) other MQBL converters. The pulse train coming out of SYNC OUT has a duty cycle of 50% and a frequency that matches the switching frequency of the converter with which it is associated. This frequency is either the free-running frequency if there is no valid synchronization signal at the SYNC IN pin, or the synchronization frequency if there is. The synchronization feature is entirely compatible with that of SynQor’s MQFL family of converters. OUTPUT VOLTAGE TRIM: If desired, it is possible to increase or decrease the MQBL dual converter’s output voltage from its nominal value. To increase the output voltage a resistor, Rtrim up, should be connected between TRIM pin (pin 10) and the OUTPUT RETURN pin (pin 8), as shown in Figure D. The value of this resistor should be determined according to the following equation of from Figure E: Rtrim up(Ω) = 6000Ω*Vnom Vout - Vnom - 30000Ω where: Vnom = the converter’s nominal output voltage, Vout = the desired output voltage (greater than Vnom), and Rtrim up is in Ohms. As the output voltage is trimmed up, it produces a greater voltage stress on the converter’s internal components and may cause the converter to fail to deliver the desired output voltage at the low end of the input voltage range at the higher end of the load current and temperature range. Please consult the factory for details. To trim the output voltage below its nominal value, connect an external resistor (Rtrim down) between the TRIM pin and the POSITIVE OUTPUT pin (pin 7), and another resistor (Rtrim sense) connected between the TRIM pin and the OUTPUT RETURN pin as shown in Figure D. The values of these trim down resistors should be chosen according to the following equation or from Figure E: Rtrim down(Ω) = 15100Ω*Vout - 6000Ω*Vnom - 30000Ω Vnom - Vout where: Figure B shows the equivalent circuit looking into the SYNC IN pin and Figure C shows the equivalent circuit looking into the SYNC OUT pin. Vnom = the converter’s nominal output voltage, Vout = the desired output voltage (less than Vnom), and Rtrim down and Rtrim sense are in Ohms. 5V 5V 5K PIN 6 PIN 2 SYNC IN 5K 5K TO SYNC CIRCUITRY SYNC OUT FROM SYNC CIRCUITRY IN RTN IN RTN OPEN COLLECTOR OUTPUT Figure B: Equivalent circuit looking into the SYNC IN pin with respect to the IN RTN (input return) pin.

C 09/14/15 Page 12 MQBL-28-05D Output: ±5V Current: 4A Total Application Section INPUT OVER-VOLTAGE SHUTDOWN: The MQBL converter also has an over-voltage feature that ensures the converter will be off if the input voltage is too high. It also has a hysteresis and time delay to ensure proper operation. OUTPUT OVER-VOLTAGE SHUTDOWN: The MQBL converter will shut down if the voltage at its power output pins ever exceeds about 130% of the nominal value. The shutdown threshold does not change with output trim or sense drops; excessive trim-up or output wiring drops may cause an output over-voltage shutdown event. After a startup inhibit delay, the converter will attempt to restart. OUTPUT UNDER-VOLTAGE SHUTDOWN: The MQBL converter will also shut down if the voltage at its power output pins ever dips below 60% of the nominal value for more than a few milliseconds. Output voltage reduction due to output current overload (current limit) is the most common trigger for this shutdown. The shutdown threshold does not change with output trim but at only 10%, trimdown should not trigger this event. After a startup inhibit delay, the converter will attempt to restart. This shutdown is disabled during startup. 28Vdc + open means on 1 +VIN 2 IN RTN 3 CASE 4 ENA 1 5 SYNC OUT 6 SYNC IN 10000 External Trim Resistance (kOhms) INPUT UNDER-VOLTAGE SHUTDOWN: The MQBL converter has an under-voltage shutdown feature that ensures the converter will be off if the input voltage is too low. The input voltage turn-on threshold is higher than the turn-off threshold. In addition, the MQBL converter will not respond to a state of the input voltage unless it has remained in that state for more than about 200µs. This hysteresis and the delay ensure proper operation when the source impedance is high or in a noisy environment.

BACK-DRIVE CURRENT LIMIT: Converters that use MOSFETs as synchronous rectifiers are capable of drawing a negative current from the load if the load is a source of short- or long-term energy. This negative current is referred to as a “back-drive current”. Conditions where back-drive current might occur include paralleled converters that do not employ current sharing. It can also occur when converters having different output voltages are connected together through either explicit or parasitic diodes that, while normally off, become conductive during startup or shutdown. Finally, some loads, such as motors, can return energy to their power rail. Even a load capacitor is a source of back-drive energy for some period of time during a shutdown transient.

C 09/14/15 Page 13 MQBL-28-05D Output: ±5V Current: 4A Total Application Section To avoid any problems that might arise due to back-drive current, the MQBL converters limit the negative current that the converter can draw from its output terminals. The threshold for this back-drive current limit is placed sufficiently below zero so that the converter may operate properly down to zero load, but its absolute value (see the Electrical Characteristics page) is small compared to the converter’s rated output current. CURRENT LIMIT: In the event of excess load, the MQBL converter will quickly reduce its output voltage to keep the load current within safe limits (see Figure 12). If the overload persists for more than 14 milliseconds, the converter will shut off, wait a restart delay, and then automatically attempt to re-start. The timeout is internally implemented with an integrator: counting up whenever current limit is active, and counting down at 1/5th the rate whenever current limit becomes inactive. In this way a series of short-duration overloads will not cause the converter to shut down, while it will shut down in response to sustained overloads. THERMAL CONSIDERATIONS: Figure 11 shows the suggested Power Derating Curves for this converter as a function of the case temperature and the maximum desired power MOSFET junction temperature. All other components within the converter are cooler than its hottest MOSFET, which at full power is no more than 20ºC higher than the case temperature directly below this MOSFET. When the converter is mounted on a metal plate, the plate will help to make the converter’s case bottom a uniform temperature. How well it does so depends on the thickness of the plate and on the thermal conductance of the interface layer (e.g. thermal grease, thermal pad, etc.) between the case and the plate. Unless this is done very well, it is important not to mistake the plate’s temperature for the maximum case temperature. It is easy for them to be as much as 5-10ºC different at full power and at high temperatures. It is suggested that a thermocouple be attached directly to the converter’s case through a small hole in the plate when investigating how hot the converter is getting. Care must also be made to ensure that there is not a large thermal resistance between the thermocouple and the case due to whatever adhesive might be used to hold the thermocouple in place. INPUT SYSTEM INSTABILITY: This condition can occur because any dc-dc converter appears incrementally as a negative resistance load. A detailed application note titled “Input System Instability” is available on the SynQor website which provides an understanding of why this instability arises, and shows the preferred solution for correcting it. The Mil-HDBK-1547A component derating guideline calls for a maximum component temperature of 105ºC. Figure 11 therefore has one power derating curve that ensures this limit is maintained. It has been SynQor’s extensive experience that reliable long-term converter operation can be achieved with a maximum component temperature of 125ºC. In extreme cases, a maximum temperature of 145ºC is permissible, but not recommended for long-term operation where high reliability is required. Derating curves for these higher temperature limits are also included in Figure 11. The maximum case temperature at which the converter should be operated is 135ºC.
