Description
The QBDW033A0B series of dc-dc converters are a new generation of DC/DC power modules designed to support
9.6 -12Vdc intermediate bus applications where multiple low voltages are subsequently generated using point of load
(POL) converters, as well as other application requiring a tightly regulated output voltage. The QBDW033A0B series
operate from an input voltage range of 36 to 75Vdc and provide up to 33A output current at output voltages from
8.1Vdc to 12Vdc in a DOSA standard quarter brick. The converter incorporates digital control, synchronous rectification
technology, a fully regulated control topology, and innovative packaging techniques to achieve efficiency approaching
97% peak at 12Vdc output. This leads to lower power dissipations such that for many applications a heat sink is not
required. Standard features include output voltage trim, remote sense, on/off control, output overcurrent and over
voltage protection, over temperature protection, input under and over voltage lockout, power good signal and PMBus
interface.
The output is fully isolated from the input, allowing versatile polarity configurations and grounding connections. Builtin filtering for both input and output minimizes the need for external filtering.

CAUTION: This power module is not internally fused. An input line fuse must always be used.
This power module can be used in a wide variety of applications, ranging from simple standalone operation to an
integrated part of sophisticated power architecture. To preserve maximum flexibility, internal fusing is not included,
however, to achieve maximum safety and system protection, always use an input line fuse. The safety agencies require a
fast-acting fuse with a maximum rating of TBD A (see Safety Considerations section). Based on the information provided
in this Data Sheet on inrush energy and maximum dc input current, the same type of fuse with a lower rating can be used.
Refer to the fuse manufacturer’s Data Sheet for further information.

Test Configurations
Design Considerations
Input Source Impedance
The power module should be connected to a low
ac-impedance source. A highly inductive source impedance
can affect the stability of the power module. For the test
configuration in Figure 10, a 330μF electrolytic capacitor,
Cin, (ESR<0.7 at 100kHz), mounted close to the power
module helps ensure the stability of the unit. If the module
is subjected to rapid on/off cycles, a 330μF input capacitor
is required. Consult the factory for further application
guidelines.
Note: Measure input reflected-ripple current with a simulated
source inductance (LTEST) of 12 µH. Capacitor CS offsets
possible battery impedance. Measure current as shown above.
Figure 10. Input Reflected Ripple Current Test Setup.
Safety Considerations
For safety-agency approval of the system in which the
power module is used, the power module must be installed
in compliance with the spacing and separation
requirements of the end-use safety agency standard, i.e.,
UL60950-1, CSA C22.2 No. 60950-1, and VDE EN60950-1.
If the input source is non-SELV (ELV or a hazardous
voltage greater than 60 Vdc and less than or equal to
75Vdc), for the module’s output to be considered as
meeting the requirements for safety extra-low voltage
(SELV), all of the following must be true:

The input source is to be provided with reinforced
insulation from any other hazardous voltages, including
the ac mains.

One VIN pin and one VOUT pin are to be grounded, or
both the input and output pins are to be kept floating.

The input pins of the module are not operator
accessible.

Another SELV reliability test is conducted on the whole
system (combination of supply source and subject
module), as required by the safety agencies, to verify
that under a single fault, hazardous voltages do not
appear at the module’s output.
Note: Use a 1.0 µF ceramic capacitor and a 10 µF aluminum or
tantalum capacitor. Scope measurement should be made
using a BNC socket. Position the load between
51 mm and 76 mm (2 in. and 3 in.) from the module.

Note: Do not ground either of the input pins of the module
without grounding one of the output pins. This may
allow a non-SELV voltage to appear between the
output pins and ground.
The power module has safety extra-low voltage (SELV)
outputs when all inputs are SELV.
The input to these units is to be provided with a maximum
TBD A fast-acting (or time-delay) fuse in the unearthed
lead.
Note: All measurements are taken at the module terminals. When
socketing, place Kelvin connections at module terminals to avoid
measurement errors due to socket contact resistance.

Feature Descriptions
OverCurrent Protection
To provide protection in a fault output overload condition,
the module is equipped with internal current-limiting circuitry
and can endure current limiting continuously. If the
OverCurrent (IOUT_OC) condition causes the output
voltage to fall below tbdV , the module will shut down and
remain latched off. The overcurrent latch is reset by either
cycling the input power or by toggling the on/off pin for one
second. If the output overload condition still exists when the
module restarts, it will shut down again. This operation will
continue indefinitely until the overcurrent condition is
corrected.
A factory configured auto-restart option is also available. An
auto-restart feature continually attempts to restore the
operation until fault condition is cleared.
The IOUT_OC _WARNing and FAULT threshold levels, and
IOUT_OC_FAULT_RESPONSE can be reconfigured via
the PMBus interface.
Remote On/Off [CONTROL](i)
The module contains a standard on/off control circuit
reference to the VIN(-) terminal. Two factory configured
remote on/off logic options are available. Positive logic
remote on/off turns the module on during a logic-high
voltage on the ON/OFF(i) pin, and off during a logic low.
Negative logic remote on/off turns the module off during a
logic high, and on during a logic low. Negative logic, device
code suffix "1," is the factory-preferred configuration. The
On/Off(i) circuit is powered from an internal bias supply,
derived from the input voltage terminals. To turn the power
module on and off, the user must supply a switch to control
the voltage between the On/Off(i) terminal and the VIN(-)
terminal (Von/off(i)). The switch can be an open collector or
equivalent (see Figure 13). A logic low is Von/off(i) = -0.3V to
0.8V. The typical Ion/off(i) during a logic low is TBDµA. The
switch should maintain a logic-low voltage while sinking
TBDµA. During a logic high, the maximum Von/off(i)
generated by the power module is TBDV. The maximum
allowable leakage current of the switch at Von/off(i)= 2.0V is
TBDµA. If using an external voltage source, the maximum
voltage Von/off(i) on the pin is TBDV with respect to the VIN(-)
terminal.
If not using the remote on/off feature, perform one of the
following to turn the unit on:
For negative logic, short ON/OFF(i) pin to VIN(-).
For positive logic: leave ON/OFF(i) pin open.
Remote On/Off [CONTROL](o)
The module contains an configurable on/off control circuit
reference to the VO(-) terminal. Two factory configured
remote on/off logic options are available. Positive logic
remote on/off turns the module on during a logic-high
voltage on the ON/OFF pin, and off during a logic low.
Negative logic remote on/off turns the module off during a
logic high, and on during a logic low. The logic of the
ON/OFF(o) pin shall match the logic of the ON/OFF(i) pin.
Negative logic, device code suffix "1," is the factorypreferred configuration. The On/Off(o) circuit is powered
from an internal bias supply, derived from the output bias
voltage. To turn the power module on and off, the user must
supply a switch to control the voltage between the On/Off
(o) terminal and the VO(-) terminal (Von/off(o)). The switch
can be an open collector or equivalent (see Figure 13). A
logic low is Von/off(o) = -0.3V to 0.8V. The typical Ion/off(o)
during a logic low is TBDµA. The switch should maintain a
logic-low voltage while sinking TBDµA. During a logic high,
the maximum Von/off(o) generated by the power module is
TBDV. The maximum allowable leakage current of the
switch at Von/off(o) = 2.0V is TBDµA. If using an external
voltage source, the maximum voltage Von/off on the pin is
TBDV with respect to the Vi(-) terminal.
If not using the remote on/off feature, perform one of the
following to turn the unit on:
For negative logic, short ON/OFF(o) pin to Vi(-).
For positive logic: leave ON/OFF(o) pin open.
When both On/Off(i) and On/Off(o) are present, the module
shall operate if either is asserted. Using Mfgr_Specif
commands, it shall be possible to reconfigure the On/Off
logic between positive and negative via PMBus, and it shall
also be possible to reconfigure the combination of On/Off(i)
and On/Off(o) from OR to AND for module operation.
Output Overvoltage Protection
The output overvoltage protection consists of a control
circuit, independent of the primary regulation loop, that
monitors the voltage on the output terminals and clamps the
voltage when it exceeds the overvoltage set point. The
control loop of the clamp has a higher voltage set point than
the primary loop. This provides a redundant voltage control
that reduces the risk of output overvoltage.
Overtemperature Protection
These modules feature an overtemperature protection
circuit to safeguard against thermal damage. The circuit
shuts down and latches off the module when the maximum
device reference temperature is exceeded. The module can
be restarted by cycling the dc input power for at least one
second or by toggling the remote on/off signal for at least
one second.
Input Under/Over voltage Lockout
Figure 13. Remote On/Off Implementation.
LINEAGE POWER
At input voltages above or below the input under/over
voltage lockout limits, module operation is disabled. The
module will begin to operate when the input voltage level
changes to within the under and overvoltage lockout limits.

Trim, Output Voltage Programming, TM
Remote Sense
Trimming allows the output voltage set point to be
increased or decreased; this is accomplished by connecting
an external resistor between the TRIM pin and either the
VO(+) pin or the VO(-) pin.
Remote sense minimizes the effects of distribution losses
by regulating the voltage at the remote-sense connections
(See Figure 11). The voltage between the remote-sense
pins and the output terminals must not exceed the output
voltage sense range given in the Feature Specifications
table:
[VO(+) – VO(–)] – [SENSE(+) – SENSE(–)]  0.5 V
Although the output voltage can be increased by both the
remote sense and by the trim, the maximum increase for
the output voltage is not the sum of both. The maximum
increase is the larger of either the remote sense or the trim.
The amount of power delivered by the module is defined as
the voltage at the output terminals multiplied by the output
current. When using remote sense and trim, the output
voltage of the module can be increased, which at the same
output current would increase the power output of the
module. Care should be taken to ensure that the maximum
output power of the module remains at or below the
maximum rated power (Maximum rated power = Vo,set x
Io,max).

QBDW033A0B Series Power Modules; DC-DC Converters
36-75Vdc Input; 9.6-12Vdc Output; 33A Output Current
Feature Descriptions (continued)
Power Good, PG
The voltage between the Vo(+) and Vo(–) terminals must
not exceed the minimum output overvoltage protection
value shown in the Feature Specifications table. This limit
includes any increase in voltage due to remote-sense
compensation and output voltage set-point adjustment trim.
The QBDW033A0B modules provide a Power Good (PG)
signal that is implemented with an open-drain output to
indicate that the output voltage is within the regulation limits
of the power module. The PG signal will be de-asserted to a
low state if any condition such as overtemperature,
overcurrent or loss of regulation occurs that would result in
the output voltage going ±TBD% outside the setpoint value.
The PG terminal should be connected through a pullup
resistor (suggested value TBDK) to a source of TBDVdc or
less.
Although the output voltage can be increased by both the
remote sense and by the trim, the maximum increase for
the output voltage is not the sum of both. The maximum
increase is the larger of either the remote sense or the trim.
The amount of power delivered by the module is defined as
the voltage at the output terminals multiplied by the output
current. When using remote sense and trim, the output
voltage of the module can be increased, which at the same
output current would increase the power output of the
module. Care should be taken to ensure that the maximum
output power of the module remains at or below the
maximum rated power (Maximum rated power = VO,set x
IO,max).
Active Load Sharing, CS
For additional power requirements, the QBDW033A0B
power module can be configured for parallel operation with
active load sharing. Good layout techniques should be
observed for noise immunity when using multiple units in
parallel. To implement active load sharing, the following
requirements should be followed:

The Vout(+) and Vout(-) planes of all parallel modules
must be connected together with output traces from
each module as short as possible to common power
planes.

The SENSE(+) and SENSE(-) connections to each
module should come from a single point in each power
plane.

The current share (CS) pins of all units in parallel must
be connected together. The path of these connections
should be as direct as possible. SIGGND is the return
for the CS signal for each module; therefore, all
modules in parallel must use the same SIGGND.

These modules contain circuitry to block reverse
current flow upon start-up, when output voltage is
present from other parallel modules, eliminating the
requirement for external output ORing devices.
However, output ORing devices should be used, if fault
tolerance is desired in parallel applications.

When not using the parallel feature, leave the CS
open.
Thermal Considerations
The power modules operate in a variety of thermal
environments and sufficient cooling should be provided to
help ensure reliable operation.
Thermal considerations include ambient temperature,
airflow, module power dissipation, and the need for
increased reliability. A reduction in the operating
temperature of the module will result in an increase in
reliability. The thermal data presented here is based on
physical measurements taken in a wind tunnel.
Heat-dissipating components are mounted on the top side
of the module. Heat is removed by conduction, convection
and radiation to the surrounding environment. Proper
cooling can be verified by measuring the thermal reference
temperature (THx). Peak temperature (THx) occurs at the
position indicated in Figure 14 and 15. For reliable
operation this temperature should not exceed the listed
temperature threshold.

temperature TH.

Feature Descriptions (continued)
The output power of the module should not exceed the
rated power for the module as listed in the Ordering
Information table.
Although the maximum THx temperature of the power
modules is 110 °C - 125 °C, you can limit this temperature
to a lower value for extremely high reliability.
Please refer to the Application Note “Thermal
Characterization Process For Open-Frame Board-Mounted
Power Modules” for a detailed discussion of thermal
aspects including maximum device temperatures.
Heat Transfer via Convection
Increased airflow over the module enhances the heat
transfer via convection. The thermal derating of figure 16
shows the maximum output current that can be delivered by
each module in the indicated orientation without exceeding
the maximum THx temperature versus local ambient
temperature (TA) for air flows of, Natural Convection, 1 m/s
(200 ft./min), 2 m/s (400 ft./min).
The use of Figures 16 is shown in the following example:
Example
What is the minimum airflow necessary for a
QBDW033A0B operating at VI = 48 V, an output current of
22A, and a maximum ambient temperature of 70 °C in

Solution:

Layout Considerations
The QBDW033 power module series are low profile in
order to be used in fine pitch system card architectures. As
such, component clearance between the bottom of the
power module and the mounting board is limited. Avoid
placing copper areas on the outer layer directly underneath
the power module. Also avoid placing via interconnects
underneath the power module.
For additional layout guide-lines, refer to FLTR100V10
Data Sheet.
Through-Hole Lead-Free Soldering
Information
The RoHS-compliant, Z version, through-hole products use
the SAC (Sn/Ag/Cu) Pb-free solder and RoHS-compliant
components. The non-Z version products use lead-tin
(Pb/Sn) solder and RoHS-compliant components. Both
version modules are designed to be processed through
single or dual wave soldering machines. The pins have an
RoHS-compliant, pure tin finish that is compatible with both
Pb and Pb-free wave soldering processes. A maximum
preheat rate of 3C/s is suggested. The wave preheat
process should be such that the temperature of the power
module board is kept below 210C. For Pb solder, the
recommended pot temperature is 260C, while the Pb-free
solder pot is 270C max. Not all RoHS-compliant throughhole products can be processed with paste-through-hole
Pb or Pb-free reflow process. If additional information is
needed, please consult with your Lineage Power
representative for more details.
Post Solder Cleaning and Drying
Considerations
Post solder cleaning is usually the final circuit-board
assembly process prior to electrical board testing. The
result of inadequate cleaning and drying can affect both the
reliability of a power module and the testability of the
finished circuit-board assembly. For guidance on
appropriate soldering, cleaning and drying procedures,
refer to Lineage Power Board Mounted Power Modules:
Soldering and Cleaning Application Note (AP01-056EPS).
PMBus
communicate with system controllers. Detailed timing and
electrical characteristics of the PMBus can be found in the
PMB Power Management Protocol Specification, Part 1,
revision 1.1, available at http://pmbus.org. The
QBDW033A0B supports both the 100kHz and 400kHz bus
timing requirements. The QBDW033A0B is permitted to
stretch the clock, as long as it does not exceed the
maximum clock LO period of 35ms. All communication over
the QBDW033A0B device PMBus interface is required to
support the Packet Error Checking (PEC) scheme. The
PMBus master must generate the correct PEC byte for all
transactions and check the PEC byte returned by the
QBDW033A0B.
The QBDW033A0B supports a subset of the commands in
the PMBus 1.1 specification. Most all of the controller
parameters can be programmed using the PMBus and
stored as defaults for later use. All commands that require
data input or output use the linear format. The exponent of
the data words is fixed at a reasonable value for the
command and altering the exponent is not supported.
Direct format data input or output is not supported by the
QBDW033A0B. The supported commands are described in
greater detail below.
The QBDW033A0B also supports the SMBALERT
response protocol. The SMBALERT response protocol is a
mechanism by which a slave (the QBDW033A0B) can alert
the bus master that it wants to talk. The master processes
this event and simultaneously addresses all slaves on the
bus (that support the protocol) through the alert response
address. Only the slave(s) that caused the alert
acknowledges this request. The host performs a modified
receive byte operation to get the slave’s address. At this
point, the master can use the PMBus status commands to
query the slave that caused the alert. For more information
on the SMBus alert response protocol, see the System
Management Bus (SMBus) specification.
The QBDW033A0B contains non-volatile memory that is
used to store configuration settings and scale factors. The
settings programmed into the device are not automatically
saved into this non-volatile memory though. The
STORE_DEFAULT_ALL command must be used to
commit the current settings to non-volatile memory as
device defaults. The settings that are capable of being
stored in non-volatile memory are noted in their detailed
descriptions.
The QBDW033A0B series is equipped with a digital PMBus
interface to allow the module to be configured, and
