3. General Description
3.1 Electrical Description
A block diagram of the VPOL10A-12W-SIP Series converter is shown in
Figure 1. Extremely high efficiency power conversion is achieved
through the use of synchronous rectification and drive techniques.
Essentially, the powerful VPOL10A-12W-SIP series topology is based
on a non-isolated synchronous buck converter. The control loop is
optimized for unconditional stability, fast transient response and a very
tight line and load regulation. In a typical pre-bias application the
VPOL10A-12W-SIP series converters do not draw any reverse current
at start-up. The output voltage can be adjusted from 0.7525 to 5.0vdc,
using the TRIM pin with a external resistor. The converter can be shut
down via a remote ON/OFF input that is referenced to ground. This
input is compatible with popular logic devices; a 'positive' logic input is
supplied as standard.
Positive logic implies that the converter is enabled if the remote
ON/OFF input is high (or floating), and disabled if it is low. The

5.6 Remote ON/OFF
converter design has resulted in its ability to operate over a wide ambient
temperature environment ( -40°C to 85°C). Due consideration must be
given to the de-rating curves when ascertaining maximum power that can
be drawn from the converter. The maximum power drawn is influenced
by a number of factors, such as:
The remote ON/OFF input feature of the converter allows external
circuitry to turn the converter ON or OFF. Active-high remote ON/OFF is
available as standard. The VPOL10A-12W-SIP are turned on if the
remote ON/OFF pin is high(=Vin), or left open. Setting the pin

implement various types of output voltage sequencing in customer
applications, VPOL10A-12W-SIP series is accomplishable through an
additional sequencing pin. When not using the sequencing feature, tie
the SEQ pin to +Vin. When the signal voltage is applied to the SEQ pin,
the output voltage tracks this voltage until the output reaches the set
point voltage. The SEQ voltage needs to be set higher than the set point
of the module. The output voltage will be follow by the voltage on the
SEQ pin. On the multiple modules application, we can connect SEQ pin
and input signal voltage together to apply on the SEQ pin. Customers
can get multiple modules to track their output voltages to follow the
voltage of the SEQ pin.
To control this module for sequen cing, when the input voltage

the module is ON by default. After applying input voltage to the module, a
minimum of 10msec delay is required before applying voltage on the

specifications “ dVSEQ/dt “. After 10msec delay, an Analog voltage is
applied to the SEQ pin and the output voltage of the module will track
this voltage until output voltage reaches the set point voltage. To initiate
simultaneous shutdown of the modules, the SEQ pin voltage is lowered
in a controlled manner. Output voltage of the modules track the voltages
below their set-point voltage voltages. A valid input voltage must be
maintained until the tracking and output voltages reach ground potential
to ensure a controlled shutdown of the modules.

The VPOL10A-12W-SIP converters must be connected to a low AC
source impedance. To avoid problems with loop stability source
inductance should be low. Also, the input capacitors should be placed
close to the converter input pins to de-couple distribution inductance.
However, the external input capacitors are chosen for suitable ripple
handling capability. Low ESR polymers are a good choice. They have
high capacitance, high ripple rating and low ESR (typical <100mohm).
Electrolytic capacitors should be avoided. Circuit as shown in Figure 12
represents typical measurement methods for ripple current. Input
reflected-ripple current is measured with a simulated source Inductance
of 1uH. Current is measured at the input of the module.

7.7 Test Set-Up
The basic test set-up to measure parameters such as efficiency and
load regulation is shown in Figure 13. Things to note are that this
converter is non-isolated, as such the input and output share a common
ground. These grounds should be connected together via low
impedance ground plane in the application circuit. When testing a
converter on a bench set-up, ensure that -Vin and -Vo are connected
together via a low impedance short to ensure proper efficiency and load
regulation measurements are being made. When testing the CUI INC’s
VPOL10A-12W-SIP series under any transient conditions please
ensure that the transient response of the source is sufficient to power
the equipment under test. We can calculate the
Efficiency
Load regulation and line regulation.
The value of efficiency is defined as:
Remote Sense regulates the output voltage at the point of load. It
minimizes the effects of distribution losses such as drops across the
connecting pin and PCB tracks (see Figure 14). Please note however,
the maximum drop from the output pin to the point of load should not
exceed 500mV for remote compensation to work.
The amount of power delivered by the module is defined as the output
voltage multiplied by the output current (VO x IO).
When using TRIM UP, the output voltage of the module will increase
which, if the same output current is maintained, increases the power
output by the module. Make sure that the maximum output power of the
module remains at or below the maximum rated power.
When the Remote Sense feature is not being used, leave sense pin
disconnected.

The output Voltage of the VPOL10A-12W-SIP can be adjusted in the
range 0.7525V to 5.0V by connecting a single resistor on the
motherboard (shown as Rtrim) in Figure 15. When Trim resistor is not
connected the output voltage defaults to 0.7525V

CUI INC’s VPOL10A-12W-SIP series converters provide unconditional
stability with or without external capacitors. For good transient response
low ESR output capacitors should be located close to the point of load.
For high current applications point has already been made in layout
considerations for low resistance and low inductance tracks.
Output capacitors with its associated ESR values have an impact on
loop stability and bandwidth. CUI INC’s converters are designed to
work with load capacitance up-to 8,000uF. It i s recommended that any
additional capacitance, typically 1,000uF and low ESR (<20mohm), be
connected close to the point of load and outside the remote
compensation point.
