C 5/21/08 Page 9 Input: Output: Current: Package: Technical Specification 36-75 V 28 V 26 A Full-brick BASIC OPERATION AND FEATURES CONTROL FEATURES The PowerQor series converter 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 step-down to achieve the low output voltage required. REMOTE ON/OFF (Pin 3): The (+)ON/OFF input, Pin 3, permits the user to control when the converter is on or off. This input is referenced (-)ON/OFF. There are two versions of the converter that differ by the sense of the logic used for the ON/OFF input. 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 far less energy than Schottky diodes. This is the primary reason that the PowerQor converter has such high efficiency, even at very low output voltages and very high output currents. Dissipation throughout the converter is so low that it does not require a heatsink for operation. Since a heatsink is not required, the PowerQor series of converters do not need a metal baseplate or potting material to help conduct the dissipated energy to the heatsink. The PowerQor series of converters can thus be built more simply and reliably using high yield surface mount techniques on a PCB substrate. The PowerQor series converters use the industry standard footprint and pin-out configuration. VIN (+) I ON/OFF +ON/OFF -ON/OFF VOUT (+) SENSE (+) SENSE (-) VOUT (-) VIN (-) Figure A: Typical circuit for driving the ON/OFF pin. VIN (+) I ON/OFF +ON/OFF -ON/OFF In the positive logic version, the ON/OFF input is active high (meaning that a high ION/OFF turns the converter on). In the negative logic version, the ON/OFF signal is active low (meaning that a low ION/OFF turns the converter on). Figures A & B detail two possible circuits for driving the ON/OFF pin. REMOTE SENSE(+) (Pins 11 and 12): The SENSE(+) inputs correct for voltage drops along the conductors that connect the converter’s output pins to the load. Pin 11 should be connected to Vout(+) and Pin 12 should be connected to Vout(-) at the point on the board where regulation is desired. A remote connection at the load can adjust for a voltage drop only as large as that specified in this datasheet, that is Pins 11 and 12 must be connected for proper regulation of the output voltage. If these connections are not made, the converter will deliver an output voltage that is slightly higher than its specified value. Note: the output over-voltage protection circuit senses the voltage across the output (pins 16 and 13) to determine when it should trigger, not the voltage across the converter’s sense leads (pins 11 and 12). Therefore, the resistive drop on the board should be small enough so that output OVP does not trigger, even during load transients. OUTPUT VOLTAGE TRIM (Pin 10): The TRIM input permits the user to adjust the output voltage across the sense leads up or down according to the trim range specifications. To decrease the output voltage, the user should connect a resistor between Pin 10 and Pin 12 (SENSE(-) input). For a desired decrease of the nominal output voltage, the value of the resistor should be Rtrim-down = VOUT (+) SENSE (+) SENSE (-) (732 ) - 8.94 D (kW) where VOUT (-) VIN (-) D% = Vnominal – Vdesired Vnominal x 100% Figure B: Another circuit for driving the ON/OFF pin.

C 5/21/08 Page 10 Input: Output: Current: Package: Technical Specification To increase the output voltage, the user should connect a resistor between Pin 7 and Pin 8 (SENSE(+) input). For a desired increase of the nominal output voltage, the value of the resistor should be Rtrim-up = 16000 + 158.4 x (VDES - VNOM) VDES - VNOM (kW) Figure C graphs 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. 1,000,000 SYNCHRONIZATION: The converter’s switching frequency can be synchronized to an external frequency source that is in the 270 kHz to 330 kHz range. A pulse train at the desired frequency should be applied to the SYNC IN pin (pin 1) with respect to the INPUT RETURN (pin 6). Its frequency can be anywhere in that range, regardless of the natural frequency of the power converter. 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 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 300 kHz. 100,000 Trim Resistance (kOhms) 36-75 V 28 V 26 A Full-brick 10,000 The converter also has a SYNC OUT pin (pin 2). The pulse train coming out of SYNC OUT has 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 synchronization signal at the SYNC IN pin, or the synchronization frequency if there is. 1,000 100 10 1 0 5 10 15 20 25 % Increase in Vout 30 35 40 45 50 % Decrease in Vout Figure C: Trim Graph for 28Vout module 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 bypassed 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. Current Share (pin 9): The active current share feature allows for N+1 and parallel applications. To achieve load sharing, directly connect the I share pins of multiple units. The load current will share equally among the multiple units. It is important that the Vin(-) pins of the sharing units be directly connected and NOT placed outside of an EMI filter or other impedance path. The voltage at the I Share pin will range from 1 to 2.4 volts (at full rated current), referenced to the primary-side ground, Vin(-) Product # PQ60280FTA26 Phone 1-888-567-9596 www.synqor.com Doc.# 005-2FT628P Rev. C 5/21/08 Page 11 Input: Output: Current: Package: Technical Specification PROTECTION FEATURES Input Under-Voltage Lockout: The converter is designed to turn off when the input voltage is too low, helping avoid an input system instability problem, described in more detail in the application note titled “Input System Instability”. The lockout circuitry is a comparator with DC hysteresis. When the input voltage is rising, it must exceed the typical “Turn-On Voltage Threshold” value* before the converter will turn on. Once the converter is on, the input voltage must fall below the typical Turn-Off Voltage Threshold value 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. 36-75 V 28 V 26 A Full-brick 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. Start-up Inhibit Period: If any protection feature causes the converter to shut down, the converter will attempt to restart after 320ms (typical), the "Restart Inhibit Period".* On initial application of input voltage, the first startup delay is about 200ms from input voltage valid to unit output rising. With the on/off pin set to enable the converter, the "Turn-On Time"* will increase by only 2ms. 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 characteristic 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. * See specifications page for details.

C 5/21/08 Page 12 Input: Output: Current: Package: Technical Specification 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 the SynQor website which provides an understanding of why this instability arises, and shows the preferred solution for correcting it. Application Circuits: Figure D below provides a typical circuit diagram which details the input filtering and voltage trimming. Input Filtering and External Input Capacitance: 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. More detailed information is available in the application note titled “EMI Characteristics” on the SynQor website. 36-75 V 28 V 26 A Full-brick Output Filtering and External Output Capacitance: Figure E 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 Specifications page. No damage will occur without this capacitor connected, but peak output voltage ripple will be much higher.
