Maximum allowable torque is 5 in. lbs., and the maximum penetration of 0.25 in (6 mm) on the sides and 0.125 in. (3 mm) on the bottom. When selecting a mounting location and orientation, the unit should be positioned so air flow is not restricted. Maintain a 2" (5,1 cm) minimum clearance at both ends of the PFC Micro, and route all cables so airflow is not obstructed. The power supply draws air in at the fan side/AC input side and exhausts air out the load side. If airflow ducting is used, avoid sharp turns that could create back pressure. The fan moves approximately 10 CFM of air. Avoid excessive bending of output power cables after they are connected to the output terminals. For high-current outputs, use cable ties to support heavy cables and minimize mechanical stress on connectors. Be careful not to short-out to neighboring outputs. The maximum torque recommended on output nuts is 10 in. lbs. Avoid applications in which the unit is exposed to excessive shock or vibration levels as the unit is designed primarily for office type equipment. In such applications, a shock absorbing mount design is required. PFC Micro Do’s and Don’ts n Do not restrict airflow to the unit. The cooling fan draws air into the unit and forces it out at the output power terminals. A minimum of 2” in front and behind the supply should be maintained in order to prevent air obstructions. n Run the output (+/–) power cables next to each other to minimize inductance. n Do not attempt to repair or modify the power supply in any manner. In the event of problems, contact Customer Service at 1-800-735-6200. n Insert proper fault protection at power supply input terminals (i.e., a fuse). n Use proper size wires to avoid overheating and excessive voltage drop. n Output voltages over 60 Vdc, whether from individual modules or series arrays, are considered as hazardous secondary outputs under UL 60950. Appropriate care must be taken in design implementation of the supply. UG:121 vicorpower.com Applications Engineering: 800 927.9474 Page 3 Technical Description The PFC Micro consists of an off-line single phase, power-factor-corrected front end, EMI filter, cooling fan, customer interface, power supply control circuit, associated housekeeping circuits, and a selection of Vicor’s VI-200/VI-J00 and/or Maxi DC-DC converters. Input AC mains voltage is applied to input connector MB1J1. The input current is passed through an EMI filter designed to meet conducted noise limit "A" specifications of FCC Part 15. At start-up, inrush current is limited by a PTC thermistor. The PTC is shunted out shortly after initial power-up by a DC bus voltage sense circuit driving a relay. After rectification, the input voltage is put through a boost converter that keeps the AC input current sinusoidal and synchronized with the input AC voltage (in compliance with EN61000). The boost converter delivers a regulated input to the hold-up capacitors and a high voltage backplane. The backplane supplies power to the DC-DC converters that provide the desired low voltage regulated outputs. Output voltage conversion is achieved by Vicor’s family of Zero-Current-Switching (ZCS) DC-DC converters. These are forward converters in which the main switching element switches at zero current. This patented topology has a number of unique attributes: low switching losses; high frequency operation, resulting in reduced size for magnetics and capacitors; excellent line and load regulation; wide adjustment range for output; low EMI/RFI emission and high efficiencies. At initial power-up, the PFC Micro outputs are disabled to limit the inrush current and to allow the DC bus potential to settle out to the correct operating level. A low-power flyback converter converts the high voltage DC bus into regulated low voltage to power the internal housekeeping circuits and DC cooling fan. The internal housekeeping Vcc comes up within 1 s after the application of input power. Once the high voltage bus is within operating limits, the AC Power OK signal asserts to a TTL "1," indicating the input power is OK, and the power outputs will come up 250 ms later. An output Enable/Disable function is provided to control Vicor’s DC-DC converters. If the Enable/Disable control pin is pulled low, the modules output is disabled. The nominal delay associated for an output to come up when measured from release of the Enable/Disable pin is 9-12 ms. The General Shutdown function controls all outputs simultaneously and works in a similar manner. Figure 1.

Each slot has one of the following configurations: 10 - 32 plated steel bolts from outputs using full size converters, an 18 pin Molex connector for outputs using half size converters and a 16 pin Molex connector for outputs using quarter size converters. Note: The Molex connectors are limited to 9A/pin (27A/output). The positive polarity of the single output termination is the right bolt when viewed from the output end. Each power output is isolated, so outputs of positive or negative polarity can be configured through proper selection of the output reference terminal. In order to minimize parasitic cable inductance and reduce EMI, the output power cables should be routed in close proximity to one another, and large current loops should be avoided. To avoid excessive voltage drop, do not undersize power cables, especially for high current outputs. Do not bulk input AC wires with the output wires because this can couple output noise into the input wires which can increase EMI. Excessive cable inductance coupled with large capacitive loading can introduce instability in switching power supplies. This problem can be avoided with proper system design.

This is not the same as Earth Ground on input power connector MBJ1. Bi -directional I/O lines (CBJ3-4 to CBJ3-9) (Enable/Disable or Module Power Good Status) Enable/Disable Mode Enable/Disable mode is the default condition for these I/O lines. In this mode, the control pins allow the outputs to be sequenced either ON or OFF. To disable a module, the E/D pin should be pulled low to less than 0.7 V with respect to Signal Ground. The E/D lines will typically source 250 mA (1 mA max.) under this condition. To enable a module, a E/D pin should be open circuited or driven high to a logic high voltage of 3.5 V (40 mA typical) or greater not to exceed 5 V. (When one has a two module array, use GSD to disable the output instead of using E/D.) The correspondence between a module and its E/D line as seen from the output end of the power supply goes from left to right. The PFC Micro Power Supply is a two slot box. Slot 1 is the left slot and Slot 2 is the right slot. See Table 1. E/D1, E/D2, E/D3 correspond with VOUT M1, VOUT M2 and VOUT M3 on slot 1. E/D4, E/D5, E/D6 correspond with VOUT M1, VOUT M2 and VOUT M3 on slot 2. Table 1.

After transitioning to PGR mode the I/O lines (CBJ3-4 to CBJ3-9) will be outputs and will give a onetime readout of the associated module status. These outputs give an indication of the status of the modules of the power supply at the time of transition to PGR. A TTL "1" (>3.5 V) on a line indicates the module is ON and functioning properly, and a TTL "0" (<0.7 V) indicates the module is either OFF or is not functioning properly. The correspondence between the module and the Power Good Status of that module is the same as between a E/D pin and its module. This mode does NOT constantly monitor the module status and must be re-triggered by transitioning the PGR pin from logic low to logic high to get current module status. Procedurally, certain guidelines must be followed when using this feature. Upon application of a logic high on the Power Good Read (PGR) pin, the user must change its E/D interface (CBJ3-4 to CBJ3-9) from outputs to inputs within 3 ms. The Power Good Status data will be valid on the E/D lines when the Power Good Data Valid (PGDV) pin (CBJ3-11) asserts to a logic high. The power good status measurement takes typically 200 ms. While in the Power Good Read Mode (PGR=1) the individual shutdown lines are not functional. However, General Shut Down (GSD) is functional. Leaving the Power Good Read mode is accomplished by removing the logic high or applying a logic low (<0.7 V) to the Power Good Read (PGR) pin (CBJ3-2). The user must change its E/D interface (CBJ3-4 to CBJ3-9) from inputs to outputs between 1 ms and 4 ms of the time the PGR low is applied to pin CBJ3-2. Note: If any model is disabled by the user when a Power Good Read is requested (PGR=1), that module will remain off during the Power Good Read and status of said module will be power not good (<0.7 V). Power Good Read status data on open E/D lines are not valid. An open E/D line is a E/D pin where there is no module associated with said E/D line (i.e. A power supply with two Maxi modules, Data on E/D2, E/ D3 and E/D5 and E/D6 are NOT valid. The Power Good Status Mode feature is only valid when Maxi, Mini and/or Micro modules are used. The following page shows examples of triggering PGR with a 1Hz square while monitoring PGDV and a selected E/D line with a good module and a defective one.

PowerGood Read with Defective Module UG:121 vicorpower.com Applications Engineering: 800 927.9474 Page 14 General Shutdown /GSD (CBJ3-10) The GSD control pin on CBJ3-10 allows simultaneous shutdown of all outputs. This pin must be pulled down to less than 0.7 V, and will typically source 250 mA (1 mA maximum) to shut down all outputs. The GSD pin should be open circuited or driven high to a logic high voltage of 3.5 V or greater when not in use, or when the outputs are to be enabled. Do not apply more than 5 V to this input. AC OK (CBJ3-3) AC OK is an active high TTL compatible signal and provides a status indication of the AC input power. It is on pin CBJ3-3 and is capable of sinking 5 mA maximum. This signal switches to a TTL "1" when the high voltage bus exceeds low-line condition during turnon. Upon loss of input power, the bus voltage will drop, causing the AC OK signal to go low. Typically, a 3 ms holdup time is provided for a 500 W load following the loss of the AC OK signal. Auxiliary Vcc +5V/40mA (CBJ3-12) The Vcc on CBJ3-12 is an auxiliary 5 V regulated power source. It is +5 Vdc +/–5% with respect to Signal Ground and can supply 40 mA maximum. It is capable of withstanding a short, but shorted user interface functionality will be lost. Figure 6. Auxiliary Vcc 78M05 +5V/40 mA CBJ3 CBJ3-12 Auxiliary Vcc 0.1 µF CBJ3-1 Signal Ground Power Good Read (PGR, CBJ3-2) This pin initiates the Power Good Read sequence. A logic high applied to this pin will cause the power supply to enter the Power Good Read status mode. In this mode, the I/O lines (CBJ3-4 to CBJ3-9) will be outputs. These outputs give an indication of the status of the modules of the power supply. A high on an I/O line (CBJ3-4 to CBJ3-9) indicates a module is ON and functioning and a low indicate the module is OFF or in a fault condition. The Power Good Status data will be valid on the ED lines (CBJ3-4 to CBJ3-9) when the Power Good Data Valid (PGDV) pin (CBJ3-11) asserts a logic high. Applying a logic low or opening the PGR pin puts the power supply back in the Enable/Disable mode. Instructions for using this function are on Page 13 under Module Power Good Status Mode. Power Good Data Valid (PGDV- CBJ3-11) Upon entering the Power Good Read status mode (PGR=1, CBJ3-2), the data will not be valid on the I/O lines (CBJ3-4 to CBJ3-9) until the PGDV pin asserts itself logic high. This pin can source up to 5 mA. When this pin is logic low, Power Good status data is not valid or the power supply is not in the Power Good Read status mode. UG:121 vicorpower.com Applications Engineering: 800 927.9474 Page 15 +Sense/–Sense (S1/S2 J2) The sense lines for the outputs are shipped from the factory with Autosense. Autosense provides the user with automatic sensing of the outputs. With Autosense, the PFC Micro will automatically operate in a Remote Sense mode when the Remote Sense connections are made. But in the event that the Remote Sense is not connected or needed, no Local Sense selection is necessary - simply hook up the outputs and the PFC Micro will automatically operate in Local Sense mode. In the local sense mode (Remote Sense lines not connected), the power supply will regulate the output at the output terminals. The voltage appearing at the load may drop slightly due to voltage drop in the power cables. If it is necessary to compensate for voltage drop along the output power cables, the output can be trimmed up or configured for Remote Sense. Use stranded twisted pair 20 - 22 AWG wire for the Remote Sense lines. Remote Sense can compensate for a voltage drop of up to 0.5 V, or 0.25 V on each leg. The Sense connector for a single output board is a 3 pin connector providing the +Sense connection on S1/S2 J2-2 and the -Sense connection on S1/S2 J2-3. The Sense connector for a dual output board is provided on the 18 pin output connector that also provides the output and trim connections. +Sense and -Sense for the first output are located on S1/S2 J1-13 and S1/S2 J1-15, respectively. +Sense and -Sense for the second output are located on S1/S2 J1-4 and S1/S2 J1-5, respectively. Remote sense is not available for Triple output configurations. Figure 7. Remote Sense +Out +Sense Load Use 20-22 AWG Twisted Pair Wires -Sense -Out External Trim (S1/S2 J2) The Trim pin at S1/S2 J2 is referenced to the -Sense pin and can be used for external control of the output voltage. For triple output cards, the Trim pins are available on S1/S2 J2-14, S1/S2 J2-6 and S1/S2 J2-3 for outputs 1, 2 and 3 respectively. For dual output cards, the Trim pins are available at S1/S2 J2-6 and S1/S2 J2-14 for outputs 1 and 2, respectively. For a single output card , the Trim pin is S1/S2 J2-1. A 10% increase to the trim pin voltage will result in a 10% increase in output voltage. Reducing the trim pin voltage by 10% will result in a 10% decrease in output voltage. Table 2.

UG:121 vicorpower.com Applications Engineering: 800 927.9474 Page 21 Current Share Boards - Optional Feature "Current sharing" also known as Load Sharing, is the ability to divide the output current evenly across all active power supplies. This greatly reduces stresses on each power supply and allows them to run cooler, resulting in higher reliability. Standard "current sharing" techniques typically utilize shunt resistors or Hall Effect devices to measure the current from each power supply. Power shunt resistors continually dissipate power and require cooling especially when dealing with high output currents of >100 Amps. Hall Effect devices measure magnetic fields generated by current flowing through a conductor and, although they dissipate no power, they tend to be large and expensive. First developed by Vicor Engineering for paralleling MegaPAC supplies, the Box-to-Box Current Share Board or CSB allows two or more Vicor power supplies to current share by utilizing the inherent voltage drop produced in the negative output return cable. This eliminates the need for additional shunt resistors or expensive Hall Effect devices and provides a simple 5 wire connection method to achieve a +/-1 mV accuracy between the Negative Output power rails. This accuracy translates to a 1% current sharing if there is a total of 100 mV conductional voltage drop in the negative return path. Constructed as a current source to drive the Trim pin of a Vicor module, the design uses an accurate comparator circuit to monitor the power returns. In addition, the circuit is unidirectional and can only trim an output voltage up. The benefit is that only the supply that is supporting less current is adjusted up. This action balances the currents to the load by matching the output voltages of the supplies. In the case of one supply failing, the circuit will attempt to trim the failed supply only. This will leave the remaining functional supply alone to provide power to the load at its nominal voltage. Thus the circuit also offers simple redundancy. In addition, because CSB functions as a current source, the Trim outputs (T1 and T2) of the CSB can be placed in parallel to create a summing node. This allows current sharing between more than two supplies by paralleling the T2 output of one CSB circuit with the T1 output of the next CSB. Please Note: The CSB is not intended for use in Hot-swap Applications. Figure 12.

Requirements: 1. For proper operation, the power supplies being paralleled should be enabled at the same time. 2. –Out conductors must be of equal length and wire gauge. Separate –Out conductors must be used from each supply to the load, or the use of a "Y" connection to a common point must be used as shown in Figure 12. Each leg of the "Y" must have a minimum of a few millivolts of drop in order for proper operation. 50 mV to 100 mV of drop will provide from 5% to 1% accuracy. 3. –V1 and –V2 for all Box-to-Box circuits must be connected directly at the negative output power studs or terminals to achieve accurate current sharing. 4. D* can be added if redundancy is needed. If redundancy is not required, D* can be replaced with direct wire connections. 5. When using D*, the Power input should be connected on the cathode side of the paralleling diodes as shown above. 6. Terminate Sense Leads either locally or remotely as shown in Figure 12. 7.
