DESIGN CONSIDERATIONS
Under Voltage Lock Out (UVLO)
The converter output is disabled until the input voltage exceeds the UVLO turn-on limit. The converter will remain ON until the input
voltage falls below the UVLO turn-off limit. There is approximately 0.5V hysteresis in the UVLO circuit.
Over Current Protection
The converter is internally protected from short circuit and over current conditions. During these fault conditions, the converter output
will “hiccup”- (short) or “fold back” - (over current). The converter output will recover once the short or over current fault is removed.
Over Temperature Protection
The converter is protected from over temperature conditions. Upon exceeding this temperature, the converter will shut down. The
converter will automatically recover once it has sufficiently cooled.
Input Filter
A 1,000µF low ESR capacitor across the input pins is recommended for most system level designs. No additional input capacitance is
needed for the power supply to operate with low impedance inputs. However, most “real world” system level integration will have some
amount of trace or wiring lengths – raising the inductive impedance. The added input capacitor will bring the impedance back towards
unity.
Output Filter
No additional output capacitor is needed for the power supply to operate within stated specifications. However, if it is a requirement to
reduce the ripple and noise on the output, additional capacitance may be added. Usually, ceramic MLCC’s capacitor works best for
reducing H.F. spike noise. Also, capacitance in the form of a tantalum or aluminum electrolytic capacitor may also be placed across the
output in order reduce base ripple, and improve the load transient peak-to-peak voltage deviation.
Remote Sense
To improve the voltage regulation at the load, route the connections from the -Sense and the +Sense pins to the –Vout and +Vout
connections AT the load. This will force the converter to regulate the voltage at the load and not at the pins of the converter. If it is not
desired to use the Remotes Sense feature, the –Sense and +Sense pins should be connected to the -Vout and +Vout pins respectively.
Fusing
It is required that the input to the converter be supplied with a maximum 50A, 250V rated fuse.
Safety
The FA series is CE pending and pending approval of the following: UL1950, CUL950, TUV60950 FILE 155800. The isolation
provided by the FA Series is a Basic insulation in accordance with EN60950. SELV output reliability is maintained only if the input to
the FA converter is an SELV source.
Remote ON/OFF
The FA Series has Remote ON/OFF (Enable/Disable) capability using TTL logic levels. This function is offered as either
Active=TTL High (no suffix) or Active=TTL Low (R suffix), see order details on page 13. For Remote ON/OFF limits, see page 2.

Synchronization
The FA series provides synchronization of switching frequencies between multiple FA series power supplies. The synchronization
function is accomplished without the need for any added external circuitry. By tying the SYNC pin between FA modules, they will all
automatically synchronize. If synchronization is not used, the pin should be tied to –Vin.
Output Voltage Trim
The following information is provided to allow quick calculation of the trim resistor value for a desired output voltage. The general
procedure for calculating a trim resistor is as follows:
1.
2.
3.
4.
Determine the desired output voltage deviation %.
To trim down, solve for resistor value using the “Rtlow” equation.
To trim up, solve for resistor value using the “Rthi” equation.
Solved resistor values are in KΩ.

Maximum trim range is ±10%. This includes remote sense drops if applicable.
Output current is limited to specified current when trimming down.
Output power is limited to specified power when trimming up.
Trim resistors should be placed close to the module.
If the trim function is not used, it is advised to leave the trim pin floating / not connected.

Note: When trimming the output high, Io vs. Ambient is derated by power. i.e.: from Graph 2, find the maximum current at the desired
ambient and airflow, and multiply this current by the nominal voltage (28V) to get the maximum power. Divide this power by the desired
trimmed high voltage to get the maximum current at that ambient. When trimming low, the maximum current stays the same as shown in
graph 2.

TEST SETUP:
The FA12S28-300 specifications are tested with the following configurations:
Regulation and Efficiency Setup
To ensure that accurate measurements are taken, the voltage measurements are taken directly at the terminals of the module. This
minimizes errors due to contact and trace lengths between the load and the output of the supply. The following diagram is of the test
setup.
Figure 5: Regulation and Efficiency Probe Setup
Output Ripple Voltage Setup
The module is tested with a 0.1µF ceramic capacitor in parallel with a 10µF tantalum capacitor across the output terminals. Unless
otherwise specified, bandwidth is limited to 20MHZ.

TECHNICAL DATASHEET
FA12S28-300
Input Reflected Ripple Current and Input Ripple Voltage Setup
The module is tested for input reflected ripple current (Irrc). The input ripple voltage is also measured at the pins with and without an
additional 33µF electrolytic capacitor. To reduce either the input ripple current or voltage additional capacitors and/or an inductor may be
added to the input of the converter.
Figure 7: Ripple Current Setup
Converter Thermal Consideration
The converter is designed to operate without convective cooling if the de-rating curves are followed. The converter can operate at higher
temperatures and higher output currents if airflow and/or a heatsink are applied. Airflow should be aligned lengthwise to the converter’s
heatsink fins for optimum heat transfer. See Graph 2 for de-rating curves or contact factory for additional thermal information.

Paralleling Converters
The FA series converters may be paralleled both for redundancy and for higher output current. However, in order to do this, a highcurrent, low Vf, Schottky diode must be placed at the +Vo pin of each supply as shown in Figure 9.
