The first, or regulation, stage is a buck-converter that keeps the output voltage constant over variations in line, load, and temperature. The second, or isolation, stage uses transformers to provide the functions of input/output isolation and voltage transformation to achieve the output voltage required. Both the regulation and the isolation stages switch at a fixed frequency for predictable EMI performance. The isolation stage switches at one half the frequency of the regulation stage, but due to the push-pull nature of this stage it creates a ripple at double its switching frequency. As a result, both the input and the output of the converter have a fundamental ripple frequency of about 550 kHz in the free-running mode. Rectification of the isolation stage’s output is accomplished with synchronous rectifiers. These devices, which are MOSFETs with a very low resistance, dissipate far less energy than would Schottky diodes. This is the primary reason why the MQFL converters have such high efficiency, particularly at low output voltages. Besides improving efficiency, the synchronous rectifiers permit operation down to zero load current. There is no longer a need for a minimum load, as is typical for converters that use diodes for rectification. The synchronous rectifiers actually permit a negative load current to flow back into the converter’s output terminals if the load is a source of short or long term energy. The MQFL converters employ a “back-drive current limit” to keep this negative output terminal current small. There is a control circuit on both the input and output sides of the MQFL converter that determines the conduction state of the power switches. These circuits communicate with each other across the isolation barrier through a magnetically coupled device. No opto-isolators are used. A separate bias supply provides power to both the input and output control circuits. An input under-voltage lockout feature with hysteresis is provided, as well as an input over-voltage shutdown. There is also an output current limit that is nearly constant as the load impedance decreases to a short circuit (i.e., there is no fold-back or foldforward characteristic to the output current under this condition). When a load fault is removed, the output voltage rises exponentially to its nominal value without an overshoot. The MQFL converter’s control circuit does not implement an output over-voltage limit or an over-temperature shutdown. The following sections describe the use and operation of additional control features provided by the MQFL converter. Product # MQFL-270-06S Phone 1-888-567-9596 CONTROL FEATURES ENABLE: The MQFL converter has two enable pins. Both must have a logic high level for the converter to be enabled. A logic low on either pin will inhibit the converter. The ENA1 pin (pin 4) is referenced with respect to the converter’s input return (pin 2). The ENA2 pin (pin 12) is referenced with respect to the converter’s output return (pin 8). This permits the converter to be inhibited from either the input or the output side. Regardless of which pin is used to inhibit the converter, the regulation and the isolation stages are turned off. However, when the converter is inhibited through the ENA1 pin, the bias supply is also turned off, whereas this supply remains on when the converter is inhibited through the ENA2 pin. A higher input standby current therefore results in the latter case. Both enable pins are internally pulled high so that an open connection on both pins will enable the converter. Figure A shows the equivalent circuit looking into either enable pins. It is TTL compatible. 5.0V PIN 4 (or PIN 12) 1N4148 68K TO ENABLE CIRCUITRY ENABLE 250K 2N3904 125K PIN 2 (or PIN 8) IN RTN Figure A: Equivalent circuit looking into either the ENA1 or ENA2 pins with respect to its corresponding return pin. SHUT DOWN: The MQFL converter will shut down in response to following conditions: - ENA1 input low - ENA2 input low - VIN input below under-voltage lockout threshold - VIN input above over-voltage shutdown threshold - Persistent current limit event lasting more than 1 second Following a shutdown from a disable event or an input voltage fault, there is a startup inhibit delay which will prevent the converter from restarting for approximately 300ms. After the 300ms delay elapses, if the enable inputs are high and the input voltage is within the operating range, the converter will restart. If the VIN input is brought down to nearly 0V and back into the operating range, there is no startup inhibit, and the output voltage will rise according to the “Turn-On Delay, Rising Vin” specification. www.synqor.com Doc.# 005-MQ2706S Rev. 2 08/20/08 Page 9 MQFL-270-06S Output: 6.0 V Current: 20 A Technical Specification Refer to the following Current Limit section for details regarding persistent current limit behavior. REMOTE SENSE: The purpose of the remote sense pins is to correct for the voltage drop along the conductors that connect the converter’s output to the load. To achieve this goal, a separate conductor should be used to connect the +SENSE pin (pin 10) directly to the positive terminal of the load, as shown in the connection diagram. Similarly, the –SENSE pin (pin 9) should be connected through a separate conductor to the return terminal of the load. NOTE: Even if remote sensing of the load voltage is not desired, the +SENSE and the -SENSE pins must be connected to +Vout (pin 7) and OUTPUT RETURN (pin 8), respectively, to get proper regulation of the converter’s output. If they are left open, the converter will have an output voltage that is approximately 200mV higher than its specified value. If only the +SENSE pin is left open, the output voltage will be approximately 25mV too high. OUT has a duty cycle of 50% and 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. The SYNC OUT signal is available only when the DC input voltage is above approximately 125V and when the converter is not inhibited through the ENA1 pin. An inhibit through the ENA2 pin will not turn the SYNC OUT signal off. NOTE: An MQFL converter that has its SYNC IN pin driven by the SYNC OUT pin of a second MQFL converter will have its start of its switching cycle delayed approximately 180 degrees relative to that of the second converter. Figure B shows the equivalent circuit looking into the SYNC IN pin. Figure C shows the equivalent circuit looking into the SYNC OUT pin. 5V Inside the converter, +SENSE is connected to +Vout with a 100W resistor and –SENSE is connected to OUTPUT RETURN with a 10W resistor. It is also important to note that when remote sense is used, the voltage across the converter’s output terminals (pins 7 and 8) will be higher than the converter’s nominal output voltage due to resistive drops along the connecting wires. This higher voltage at the terminals produces a greater voltage stress on the converter’s internal components and may cause the converter to fail to deliver the desired output voltage at the low end of the input voltage range at the higher end of the load current and temperature range. Please consult the factory for details. 5K TO SYNC CIRCUITRY PIN 6 SYNC IN PIN 2 5K IN RTN Figure B: Equivalent circuit looking into the SYNC IN pin with respect to the IN RTN (input return) pin. SYNCHRONIZATION: The MQFL converter’s switching frequency can be synchronized to an external frequency source that is in the 500 kHz to 700 kHz range. A pulse train at the desired frequency should be applied to the SYNC IN pin (pin 6) with respect to the INPUT RETURN (pin 2). 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. FROM SYNC CIRCUITRY If the MQFL 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 550 kHz. Figure C: Equivalent circuit looking into SYNC OUT pin with respect to the IN RTN (input return) pin. If, due to a fault, the SYNC IN pin is held in either a logic low or logic high state continuously, the MQFL converter will revert to its free-running frequency. The MQFL converter also has a SYNC OUT pin (pin 5). This output can be used to drive the SYNC IN pins of as many as ten (10) other MQFL converters.

The voltage on this common SHARE node represents the average current delivered by all of the paralleled converters. Each converter monitors this average value and adjusts itself so that its output current closely matches that of the average. www.synqor.com Doc.# 005-MQ2706S Rev. 2 08/20/08 Page 10 MQFL-270-06S Output: 6.0 V Current: 20 A Technical Specification Since the SHARE pin is monitored with respect to the OUTPUT RETURN (pin 8) by each converter, it is important to connect all of the converters’ OUTPUT RETURN pins together through a low DC and AC impedance. When this is done correctly, the converters will deliver their appropriate fraction of the total load current to within +/- 10% at full rated load. Trim Resistance (kOhms) 100,000.0 Whether or not converters are paralleled, the voltage at the SHARE pin could be used to monitor the approximate average current delivered by the converter(s). A nominal voltage of 1.0V represents zero current and a nominal voltage of 2.2V represents the maximum rated total current, with a linear relationship in between. The internal source resistance of a converter’s SHARE pin signal is 2.5 kW. During an input voltage fault or primary disable event, the SHARE pin outputs a power failure warning pulse. The SHARE pin will go to 3V for approximately 14ms as the output voltage falls. During a current limit auto-restart event, the SHARE pin outputs a startup synchronization pulse. The SHARE pin will go to 5V for approximately 2ms before the converter restarts. NOTE: Converters operating from separate input filters with reverse polarity protection (such as the MQME-270-R filter) with their outputs connected in parallel may exhibit auto-restart operation at light loads. Consult factory for details. OUTPUT VOLTAGE TRIM: If desired, it is possible to increase the MQFL converter’s output voltage above its nominal value. To do this, use the +SENSE pin (pin 10) for this trim function instead of for its normal remote sense function, as shown in Figure D. In this case, a resistor connects the +SENSE pin to the –SENSE pin (which should still be connected to the output return, either remotely or locally). The value of the trim resistor should be chosen according to the following equation or from Figure E: Rtrim = 100 x [ Vnom Vout – Vnom – 0.025 1 2 3 270Vdc 4 + – 5 open means on 6 ] 10,000.0 1,000.0 100.0 0 0.1 0.2 0.3 0.4 0.5 0.6 0.7 Increase in Vout Figure E: Output Voltage Trim Graph where: Vnom = the converter’s nominal output voltage, Vout = the desired output voltage (greater than Vnom), and Rtrim is in Ohms. As the output voltage is trimmed up, it produces a greater voltage stress on the converter’s internal components and may cause the converter to fail to deliver the desired output voltage at the low end of the input voltage range at the higher end of the load current and temperature range. Please consult the factory for details. Factory trimmed converters are available by request. INPUT UNDER-VOLTAGE LOCKOUT: The MQFL converter has an under-voltage lockout feature that ensures the converter will be off if the input voltage is too low. The threshold of input voltage at which the converter will turn on is higher that the threshold at which it will turn off. In addition, the MQFL converter will not respond to a state of the input voltage unless it has remained in that state for more than about 200µs. This hysteresis and the delay ensure proper operation when the source impedance is high or in a noisy environment. +VIN ENA 2 IN RTN SHARE CASE + SNS ENA 1 – SNS SYNC OUT SYNC IN OUT RTN +VOUT 12 11 10 9 Rtrim – 8 Load 7 + Figure D: Typical connection for output voltage trimming.

It also has a hysteresis and time delay to ensure proper operation. CURRENT LIMIT: The converter will reduce its output voltage in response to an overload condition, as shown in Figure 6. If the output voltage drops to below approximately 50% of the nominal setpoint for longer than 1 second, the auto-restart feature will engage. The auto-restart feature will stop the converter from delivering load current, in order to protect the converter and the load from thermal damage. After four seconds have elapsed, the converter will automatically restart. In a system with multiple converters configured for load sharing using the SHARE pin, if the auto-restart feature engages, the converters will synchronize their restart using signals communicated on the SHARE pin. BACK-DRIVE CURRENT LIMIT: Converters that use MOSFETs as synchronous rectifiers are capable of drawing a negative current from the load if the load is a source of short- or long-term energy. This negative current is referred to as a “back-drive current”. Conditions where back-drive current might occur include paralleled converters that do not employ current sharing, or where the current share feature does not adequately ensure sharing during the startup or shutdown transitions. It can also occur when converters having different output voltages are connected together through either explicit or parasitic diodes that, while normally off, become conductive during startup or shutdown. Finally, some loads, such as motors, can return energy to their power rail. Even a load capacitor is a source of back-drive energy for some period of time during a shutdown transient. To avoid any problems that might arise due to back-drive current, the MQFL converters limit the negative current that the converter can draw from its output terminals. The threshold for this backdrive current limit is placed sufficiently below zero so that the converter may operate properly down to zero load, but its absolute value (see the Electrical Characteristics page) is small compared to the converter’s rated output current. Product # MQFL-270-06S Phone 1-888-567-9596 THERMAL CONSIDERATIONS: Figure 5 shows the suggested Power Derating Curves for this converter as a function of the case temperature and the maximum desired power MOSFET junction temperature. All other components within the converter are cooler than its hottest MOSFET, which at full power is no more than 20ºC higher than the case temperature directly below this MOSFET. The Mil-HDBK-1547A component derating guideline calls for a maximum component temperature of 105ºC. Figure 5 therefore has one power derating curve that ensures this limit is maintained. It has been SynQor’s extensive experience that reliable long-term converter operation can be achieved with a maximum component temperature of 125ºC. In extreme cases, a maximum temperature of 145ºC is permissible, but not recommended for long-term operation where high reliability is required. Derating curves for these higher temperature limits are also included in Figure 5. The maximum case temperature at which the converter should be operated is 135ºC. When the converter is mounted on a metal plate, the plate will help to make the converter’s case bottom a uniform temperature. How well it does so depends on the thickness of the plate and on the thermal conductance of the interface layer (e.g. thermal grease, thermal pad, etc.) between the case and the plate. Unless this is done very well, it is important not to mistake the plate’s temperature for the maximum case temperature. It is easy for them to be as much as 5-10ºC different at full power and at high temperatures. It is suggested that a thermocouple be attached directly to the converter’s case through a small hole in the plate when investigating how hot the converter is getting. Care must also be made to ensure that there is not a large thermal resistance between the thermocouple and the case due to whatever adhesive might be used to hold the thermocouple in place. 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. www.synqor.com Doc.# 005-MQ2706S Rev. 2 08/20/08 Page 12 MQFL-270-06S Output: 6.0 V Current: 20 A Technical Specification CONSTRUCTION AND ENVIRONMENTAL STRESS SCREENING OPTIONS Screening Consistent with MIL-STD-883F B-Grade (-40 ºC to +85 ºC) C-Grade (-40 ºC to +100 ºC) ES-Grade (-55 ºC to +125 ºC) (Element Evaluation) HB-Grade (-55 ºC to +125 ºC) (Element Evaluation) Internal Visual * Yes Yes Yes Yes Temperature Cycle Method 1010 No No Condition B (-55 ºC to +125 ºC) Condition C (-65 ºC to +150 ºC) Constant Acceleration Method 2001 (Y1 Direction) No No 500g Condition A (5000g) Burn-in Method 1015 Load Cycled • 10s period • 2s @ 100% Load • 8s @ 0% Load 12 Hrs @ +100 ºC 24 Hrs @ +125 ºC 96 Hrs @ +125 ºC 160 Hrs @ +125 ºC Final Electrical Test Method 5005 (Group A) +25 ºC +25 ºC -45, +25, +100 ºC -55, +25, +125 ºC Anodized Package Full QorSeal Full QorSeal Full QorSeal * * Yes Yes Ruggedized QorSeal QorSeal QorSeal Mechanical Seal, Thermal, and Coating Process External Visual Construction Process 2009 * Per IPC-A-610 (Rev.
