®
The BusQor® BQ60120HEx30 Exa series converter is a
next-generation, board-mountable, isolated, wide input,
regulated, fixed switching frequency DC-DC converter that
uses synchronous rectification to achieve extremely high
conversion efficiency. The BusQor Exa series provides an
isolated step down voltage from 35-75V to 12V with tight
output voltage regulation in a standard “half-brick” module
and is available in open-frame and baseplated version.
BusQor converters are ideal for customers who need
multiple outputs and wish to use point of load converters
to work with a 12V rail. The BusQor Exa series converters
offer industry-leading useable output current for powering
intermediate bus architechture systems. RoHS 6/6 compliant
(see page last page).
BQ60120HEx30 Model
Operational Features
Mechanical Features
• Ultra-high efficiency, 95% at full rated load current
• Delivers 30A of current at (360W) full power with minimal derating
- no heatsink required
• Wide operating input voltage range: 35-75V with 100V 100ms
input voltage transient withstand capability
• Fixed frequency switching provides predictable EMI
Control Features
• On/Off control referenced to input side (positive and negative logic
options are available)
• Remote sense for the output voltage compensates for output
distribution drops
• Output voltage trim down to 6.0V permits custom voltages and
voltage margining (+5%/-50%)
• Short startup inhibit time
Safety Features
• UL 60950-1/R2011-12
• EN60950-1/A2:2013

BASIC OPERATION AND FEATURES
CONTROL FEATURES
This converter series uses a two-stage power conversion topology.
The first stage keeps the output voltage constant over variations in
line, load, and temperature. The second stage uses a transformer
to provide the functions of input/output isolation and voltage stepdown to achieve the low output voltage required.
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(-).
Both the first stage and the second stage switch at a fixed frequency
for predictable EMI performance. Rectification of the transformer’s
output is accomplished with synchronous rectifiers. These devices,
which are MOSFETs with a very low on-state resistance, dissipate
significantly less energy than Schottky diodes, enabling the
converter to achieve high efficiency.
Dissipation throughout the converter is so low that it does not
require a heatsink for operation in many applications; however,
adding a heatsink provides improved thermal derating performance
in extreme situations. See Ordering Information page for available
thermal design options.
SynQor converters use the industry standard footprint and pinout.
ON/OFF
ON/OFF
ON/OFF
In negative logic versions, the ON/OFF signal is active low
(meaning that a low voltage turns the converter on). In positive
logic versions, the ON/OFF input is active high (meaning that a
high voltage turns the converter on). Figure A details possible
circuits for driving the ON/OFF pin. See Ordering Information page
for available enable logics.
REMOTE SENSE Pins 8(+) and 6(-): The SENSE(+) and
SENSE(-) inputs correct for voltage drops along the conductors
that connect the converter’s output pins to the load.
Pin 8 should be connected to Vout(+) and Pin 6 should be
connected to Vout(-) at the point on the board where regulation
is desired. If these connections are not made, the converter will
deliver an output voltage that is slightly higher than its specified
value.
OUTPUT VOLTAGE TRIM (Pin 7): The TRIM input permits
the user to adjust the output voltage across the sense leads up
or down according to the trim range specifications. SynQor uses
industry standard trim equations.
To decrease the output voltage, the user should connect a resistor
between Pin 7 and Pin 6 (SENSE(-) input). For a desired decrease
of the nominal output voltage, the value of the resistor should be:
Rtrim-down =

Input Under-Voltage Lockout: The converter is designed to
turn off when the input voltage is too low, helping to avoid an input
system instability problem, which is described in more detail in the
application note titled “Input System Instability” on www.SynQor.
com. The lockout circuitry is a comparator with DC hysteresis.
When the input voltage is rising, it must exceed the typical “TurnOn Voltage Threshold”* before the converter will turn on. Once
the converter is on, the input voltage must fall below the typical
“Turn-Off Voltage Threshold”* before the converter will turn off.
Output Current Limit: If the output current exceeds the “Output
DC Current Limit Inception” point*, then a fast linear current limit
controller will reduce the output voltage to maintain a constant
output current. There is no minimum operating output voltage.
The converter will run with low on-board power dissipation down
to zero output voltage. A redundant circuit will shutdown the
converter if the primary current limit fails.

Figure B: Trim Graph.
The Trim Graph in Figure B shows the relationship between the
trim resistor value and Rtrim-up and Rtrim-down, showing the
total range the output voltage can be trimmed up or down.
Note: The TRIM feature does not affect the voltage at which the
output over-voltage protection circuit is triggered. Trimming the
output voltage too high may cause the over-voltage protection
circuit to engage, particularly during transients.
It is not necessary for the user to add capacitance at the TRIM pin.
The node is internally filtered to eliminate noise.
Total DC Variation of Vout: For the converter to meet its full
specifications, the maximum variation of the DC value of Vout, due
to both trimming and remote load voltage drops, should not be
greater than that specified for the output voltage trim range.
Back-Drive Current Limit: If there is negative output current
of a magnitude larger than the "Back-Drive Current Limit while
Enabled" specification*, then a fast back-drive limit controller will
increase the output voltage to maintain a constant output current.
If this results in the output voltage exceeding the "Output OverVoltage Protection" threshold*, then the unit will shut down. The
full I-V output characteristics can be seen in Figure 19.
Output Over-Voltage Limit: If the voltage across the output
pins exceeds the “Output Over-Voltage Protection” threshold*, the
converter will immediately stop switching. This prevents damage
to the load circuit due to 1) excessive series resistance in output
current path from converter output pins to sense point, 2) a
release of a short-circuit condition, or 3) a release of a current
limit condition. Load capacitance determines exactly how high the
output voltage will rise in response to these conditions.
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 OverTemperature 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.
Startup Inhibit Period: If any protection feature causes the
converter to shut down, the converter will attempt to restart after
2ms (typical), the "Startup Inhibit Period".* On initial application
of input voltage, with the ON/OFF pin set to enable the converter,
the "Turn-On Time"* will increase by only 2ms.

APPLICATION CONSIDERATIONS
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 www.SynQor.com which provides an understanding of why this
instability arises, and shows the preferred solution for correcting it.

Input Filtering and External Input Capacitance: Figure D below shows the internal input filter components. This filter dramatically
reduces input terminal ripple current, which otherwise could exceed the rating of an external electrolytic input capacitor. The recommended
external input capacitance is specified in the Input Characteristics section of the Electrical Characteristics. More detailed information is
available in the application note titled “EMI Characteristics”, www.SynQor.com.
Output Filtering and External Output Capacitance: Figure D below shows the internal output filter components. This filter
dramatically reduces output voltage ripple. However, some minimum external output capacitance is required, as specified in the Output
Characteristics section on the Electrical Characteristics page. No damage will occur without this capacitor connected, but peak output
voltage ripple will be much higher.
