The PRM™ regulator is a very efficient non-isolated
regulator capable of both boosting and bucking a wide
range input voltage. It is specifically designed to provide
a controlled Factorized Bus distribution voltage for
powering downstream VTM™ current multiplier — fast,
efficient, isolated, low noise Point-of-Load (POL)
converters. In combination, PRM modules and VTM
modules form a complete DC-DC converter subsystem
offering all of the unique benefits of Vicor’s Factorized
Power ArchitectureTM (FPATM) : high density and
efficiency; low noise operation; architectural flexibility;
extremely fast transient response; and elimination of
bulk capacitance at the Point-of-Load (POL).
In FPA systems, the POL voltage is the product of the
Factorized Bus voltage delivered by the PRM module
and the "K-factor" (the fixed voltage transformation
ratio) of a downstream VTM module. The PRM
regulator controls the Factorized Bus voltage to provide
regulation at the POL. Because VTM modules perform
true voltage division and current multiplication, the
Factorized Bus voltage may be set to a value that is
substantially higher than the bus voltages typically
found in "intermediate bus" systems, reducing
distribution losses and enabling use of narrower
distribution bus traces. A Military PRM module-VTM
module chip set can provide up to 100 A or 115 W at a
FPA system density of 169 A/in3 or 195 W/in3 — and
because the PRM module can be located, or
"factorized," remotely from the POL, these power
densities can effectively be doubled.
The Military PRM module described in this data sheet
features a unique "Adaptive Loop" compensation
feedback: a single wire alternative to traditional remote
sensing and feedback loops that enables precise control
of an isolated POL voltage without the need for either a
direct connection to the load or for noise sensitive,
bandwidth limiting, isolation devices in the feedback
path.

Overview of Adaptive Loop Compensation
Adaptive Loop compensation, illustrated in Figure 1, contributes to the
bandwidth and speed advantage of Factorized Power. The PRM
monitors its output current and automatically adjusts its output voltage
to compensate for the voltage drop in the output resistance of the
VTM. ROS sets the desired value of the VTM output voltage, Vout; RCD
is set to a value that compensates for the output resistance of the VTM
(which, ideally, is located at the point of load). For more information
on configuring a PRM & VTM pair for adaptive loop, please see
AN:024 “Accurate Point of Load Voltage Regulation Using Simple
Adaptive Loop Feedback.”

The VI Chip’s bi-directional VC port :
1. Provides a wake up signal from the PRM to the VTM that
synchronizes the rise of the VTM output voltage to that of the PRM.
2. Provides feedback from the VTM to the PRM to enable the PRM to
compensate for the voltage drop in VTM output resistance, RO.

Pin / Control Functions
+In / -In DC Voltage Ports
The VI Chip® maximum input voltage should not be exceeded. PRMs
have internal over / undervoltage lockout functions that prevent
operation outside of the specified input range. PRMs will turn on when
the input voltage rises above its undervoltage lockout. If the input
voltage exceeds the overvoltage lockout, PRMs will shut down until the
overvoltage fault clears. PC will toggle indicating an out of bounds
condition.
AL Version

+OUT
+Out / -Out Factorized Voltage Output Ports
These ports provide the Factorized Bus voltage output. The –Out port is
connected internally to the –In port through a current sense resistor.
The PRM has a maximum power and a maximum current rating and is
protected if either rating is exceeded. Do not short –Out to –In.
–OUT
TM – Factory Use Only
IL – Current Limit Adjust
The PRM has a preset, maximum, current limit set point. The IL port
may be used to reduce the current limit set point to a lower value. See
“adjusting current limits” on page 10.
PR – Parallel Port
The PR port signal, which is proportional to the PRM output power,
supports current sharing of two PRMs. To enable current sharing,
PR ports should be interconnected. Steps should be taken to minimize
coupling noise into the interconnecting bus. Terminate this port with a
10 k equivalent resistance to SG, e.g. 10 k for a single PRM, 20 k each
for 2 PRMs in parallel, 30 k each for 3 PRMs in parallel etc.. Please
consult Vicor Applications Engineering regarding additional
considerations when paralleling more than two PRMs.
VH – Auxiliary Voltage
VH is a gated (e.g. mirrors PC), non-isolated, nominally 9 Volt,
regulated DC voltage (see “Auxiliary Pins” specifications, on Page 7)
that is referenced to SG. VH may be used to power external circuitry
having a total current consumption of no more than 5 mA under either
transient or steady state conditons including turn-on.

VC – VTM Control
The VTM Control (VC) port supplies an initial VCC voltage to
downstream VTMs, enabling the VTMs and synchronizing the rise of
the VTM output voltage to that of the PRM. The VC port also provides
feedback to the PRM to compensate for voltage drop due to the VTM
output resistance. The PRM’s VC port should be connected to the VTM
VC port. A PRM VC port can drive a maximum of two (2) VTM VC ports.
PC – Primary Control
The PRM voltage output is enabled when the PC pin is open circuit
(floating). To disable the PRM output voltage, the PC pin is pulled low.
Open collector optocouplers, transistors, or relays can be used to
control the PC pin. When using multiple PRMs in a high power array,
the PC ports must be tied together to synchronize their turn on.
During an abnormal condition the PC pin will pulse (Fig.14) as the PRM
initiates a restart cycle. This will continue until the abnormal condition
is rectified. The PC should not be used as an auxiliary voltage supply,
nor should it be switched at a rate greater than 1 Hz.

SC – Secondary Control
The load voltage may be controlled by connecting a resistor or voltage
source to the SC port referenced to SG. The slew rate of the output
voltage may be controlled by controlling the rate-of-rise of the voltage
at the SC port (e.g., to limit inrush current into a capacitive load).
SG – Signal Ground
This port provides a low inductance Kelvin connection to –In and
should be used as reference for the OS, CD, SC,VH and IL ports.
OS – Output Set
The application-specific value of the Factorized Bus voltage (Vf) is set
by connecting a resistor between OS and SG. Resistor value selection is
shown in Table 1 on Page 2, and described on Page 9. If no resistor is
connected, the PRM output will be approximately one volt. If set
resistor is not collocated with the PRM, a local bypass capacitor of
~200 pF may be required.
CD – Compensation Device
Adaptive Loop control is configured by connecting an external resistor
between the CD port and SG. Selection of an appropriate resistor value
(see Equation 2 on Page 9) configures the PRM to compensate for
voltage drops in the equivalent output resistance of the VTM and the
PRM-VTM distribution bus. If no resistor is connected to CD, the PRM
will be in Local Loop mode and will regulate the
+Out / –Out voltage to a fixed value.

The equations for calculating ROS and RCD to set a VTM output
voltage are:
After setting the output voltage from the procedure above the output
may be margined down (26 Vf min) by a resistor from SC-SG using this
formula:

Application Information (continued)
OVP – Overvoltage Protection
Adjusting Current Limit
The output Overvoltage Protection set point of the MP028F036M12AL
is factory preset for 55 V. If this threshold is exceeded the output shuts
down and a restart sequence is initiated, also indicated by PC pulsing.
If the condition that causes OVP is still present, the unit will again shut
down. This cycle will be repeated until the fault condition is removed.
The OVP set point may be set at the factory to meet unique high
voltage requirements.
The current limit can be lowered by placing an external resistor
between the IL and SG ports (see Figure 20 for resistor values). With
the IL port open-circuit, the current limit is preset to be within the
range specified in the output specifications table on Page 4.
22uF (ESR >= 1.7Ω) & 33uf (ESR>= 1.35Ω) & 47uF (ESR >= 1.1Ω) - NO IL TRIM
As shown in Figure 19, the MP028F036M12AL is rated to deliver 3.3 A
maximum, when it is delivering an output voltage in the range from
26 V to 36 V, and 120 W, maximum, when delivering an output
voltage in the range from 36 V to 55 V. When configuring a PRM for
use with a specific VTM, refer to the appropriate VTM data sheet. The
VTM input power can be calculated by dividing the VTM output power
by the VTM efficiency (available from the VTM data sheet). The input
power required by the VTM should not exceed the output power rating
of the PRM.

A fuse should be incorporated at the input to the PRM, in series with
the +In port. A fast acting fuse, NANO2 FUSE 451/453 Series 10 A
125 V, or equivalent, may be required to meet certain safety agency
Conditions of Acceptability. Always ascertain and observe the safety,
regulatory, or other agency specifications that apply to your specific
application.

Factorized Bus Voltage (VF)
Figure 19 — MP028F036M12AL rating based on Factorized Bus voltage
The Factorized Bus voltage should not exceed an absolute limit of
55 V, including steady state, ripple and transient conditions. Exceeding
this limit may cause the internal OVP set point to be exceeded.
Product Safety Considerations
If the input of the PRM is connected to SELV or ELV circuits, the output
of the PRM can be considered SELV or ELV respectively.
If the input of the PRM is connected to a centralized DC power system
where the working or float voltage is above SELV, but less than or
equal to 75 V, the input and output voltage of the PRM should be
classified as a TNV-2 circuit and spaced 1.3 mm from SELV circuitry or
accessible conductive parts according to the requirements of
UL60950-1, CSA 22.2 60950-1, EN60950-1, and IEC60950-1.
Parallel Considerations
The PR port is used to connect two PRMs in parallel to form a higher
power array. When configuring arrays, PR port interconnection
terminating impedance is 10 k to SG. See note Page 8 and refer to
Application Note AN002. Additionally one PRM should be designated
as the master while all other PRMs are set as slaves by shorting their
SC pin to SG. The PC pins must be directly connected (no diodes) to
assure a uniform start up sequence. Consult Vicor applications
engineering for applications requiring more than two PRMs.
