The V•I Chip BGA package supports in-board mounting with a low profile of 0.16" (4 mm) over the board. A J-lead package option supports on-board surface mounting with a profile of only 0.25" (6 mm) over the board. The VTM’s fast dynamic response and low noise eliminate the need for bulk capacitance at the load, substantially increasing the POL density while improving reliability and decreasing cost. Vicor Corporation Tel: 800-735-6200 vicorpower.com Unit +In to -In The VTM V048K020T080’s nominal output voltage is 2 Vdc from a 48 Vdc input factorized bus, Vf, and is controllable from 1.1 to 2.3 Vdc at no load, and from 1.1 to 2.2 Vdc at full load, over a Vf input range of 26 to 55 Vdc. It can be operated either open- or closed-loop depending on the output regulation needs of the application. Operating open-loop, the output voltage tracks its Vf input voltage with a transformation ratio, K = 1/24, and an output resistance, ROUT = 1.3 milliohm, to enable applications requiring a programmable low output voltage at high current and high efficiency. Closing the loop back to an input Pre-Regulation Module (PRM) or DC-DC converter can compensate for ROUT.

Be aware of this limit in applications where the VTM is being driven above its nominal output voltage. A 14 V source must be applied to the VC pin and voltage must be present at the +In and -In ports in order for the VTM to process power. If the input voltage exceeds the over voltage lock-out, the VTM will shutdown. The VTM does not have internal input reverse polarity protection. Adding a properly sized diode in series with the positive input or a fused reverse-shunt diode will provide reverse polarity protection. 4 3 +Out -Out +Out VC – VTM Control -Out The VC port is multiplexed. It receives the initial Vcc voltage from an upstream PRM, synchronizing the output rise of the VTM with the output rise of the PRM. Additionally, the VC port provides feedback to the PRM to compensate for the VTM output resistance. In typical applications using VTMs powered from PRMs, the PRM’s VC port should be connected to the VTM VC port. In applications where a VTM is being used without a PRM, 14 V must be supplied to the VC port for approximately 10 ms in order for the VTM to startup. The VTM can be operated at input voltages below 26 V as long as the VC voltage is applied. PC – Primary Control L E PR Disable – If the PC is left floating, the VTM output is enabled. To disable the output, the PC pin must be pulled lower than 2.4 V, referenced to -In. Optocouplers, open collector transistors or relays can be used to control the PC pin. Once disabled, 14 V must be re-applied to the VC pin in order to restart the VTM Primary Auxiliary Supply – The PC port can source up to 2.4 mA at 5 Vdc. TM – Temperature Monitor The Temperature Monitor (TM) provides a linear output proportional to the internal temperature of the VTM. At 300ºK (+27ºC) the TM output is 3.0 V referenced to -In and varies 10 mV/ºC. TM accuracy is +/-5ºC. This feature is useful for validating the thermal design of the system as well as monitoring the VTM temperature in the final application.

The respective +OUT and –OUT groups must be connected in parallel with as low an interconnect resistance as possible. Within the specified input voltage range, the Level 1 DC behavioral model shown in Figure 19 defines the output voltage of the VTM. The current source capability of the VTM is shown in the specification table. To take full advantage of the VTM, the user should note the low output impedance of the device. The low output impedance provides fast transient response without the need for bulk POL capacitance. Limited-life electrolytic capacitors required with conventional converters can be reduced or even eliminated, saving cost and valuable board real estate.

To maximize current sharing accuracy, it is imperative that the source and load impedance on each VTM in a parallel array be equal. If VTMs are being fed by an upstream PRM, the VC nodes of all VTMs must be connectd to the PRM VC. To achieve matched impedances, dedicated power planes within the PC board should be used for the output and output return paths to the array of paralleled VTMs. This technique is preferable to using traces of varying size and length. The VTM power train and control architecture allow bi-directional power transfer when the VTM is operating within its specified ranges. Bi-directional power processing improves transient response in the event of an output load dump. The VTM may operate in reverse, returning output power back to the input source. It does so efficiently. Thermal Management The high efficiency of the VTM results in low power dissipation minimizing temperature rise, even at full output current. The heat generated within the internal semiconductor junctions is coupled through very low thermal resistances, RθJC and RθJB (see Figure 17), to the PC board allowing flexible thermal management. CASE 1 Convection via optional heatsink to air CASE 2 Conduction via the PC board to air The low Junction to BGA thermal resistance allows the use of the PC board as a means of removing heat from the VTM. Convection from the PC board to ambient, or conduction to a cold plate, enable flexible thermal management options. 2 With a VTM mounted on a 2.0 in area of a multi-layer PC board with appropriate power planes resulting in 8 oz of effective copper weight, the Junction-to-BGA thermal resistance, RθJA, is 6.5 ºC/W in 300 LFM of air. With a maximum junction temperature of 125 ºC and 12 W of dissipation at full current of 80 A, the resulting temperature rise of 76 ºC allows the VTM to operate at full rated current up to a 49 ºC ambient temperature. See thermal resistances on page 9 for additional details on this thermal management option. Adding low-profile heat sinks to the PC board can lower the thermal resistance of the PC board surrounding the VTM. Additional cooling may be added by coupling a cold plate to the PC board with low thermal resistance stand offs. CASE 3 Combined direct convection to the air and conduction to the PC board. In an environment with forced convection over the surface of a PCB with 0.4" of headroom, a VTM with a 0.25 heat sink offers a simple thermal management option. The total Junction toAmbient thermal resistance of a surface mounted V048K020T080 with a heat sink attached is 4.8 ºC/W in 300 LFMairflow, (see Figure 18). Vicor Corporation Tel: 800-735-6200 vicorpower.com At 2 Vout and full rated current (80A), the VTM dissipates approximately 12 W per Figure 4. This results in a temperature rise of approximately 56 ºC, allowing operation in an air temperature of 69 ºC without exceeding the 125 ºC max junction temperature. A combination of cooling techniques that utilize the power planes and dissipation to the air will also reduce the total thermal impedance. This is the most effective cooling method. To estimate the total effect of the combination, treat each cooling branch as one leg of a parallel resistor network.

The following information defines the processing conditions required for successful attachment of a V•I Chip to a PCB. Failure to follow the recommendations provided can result in aesthetic or functional failure of the module. Inspection For the BGA-version, a visual examination of the post-reflow solder joints should show relatively columnar solder joints with no bridges. An inspection using x-ray equipment can be done, but the module’s materials may make imaging difficult. Storage V•I Chip modules are currently rated at MSL 5. Exposure to ambient conditions for more than 72 hours requires a 24 hour bake at 125ºC to remove moisture from the package. The J-Lead version’s solder joints should conform to IPC 12.2 • Properly Wetted Fillet must be evident • Heel fillet height must exceed lead thickness plus solder thickness. Solder Paste Stencil Design Solder paste is recommended for a number of reasons, including overcoming minor solder sphere co-planarity issues as well as simpler integration into overall SMD process. 63/37 SnPb, either no-clean or water-washable, solder paste should be used. Pb-free development is underway. The recommended stencil thickness is 6 mils. The apertures should be 20 mils in diameter for the In-Board (BGA) application and 0.9-0.9:1 for the On-Board (J-Leaded). Pick & Place In-Board (BGA) modules should be placed as accurately as possible to minimize any skewing of the solder joint; a maximum offset of 10 mils is allowable. On-Board (J-Leaded) modules should be placed within ±5 mils. To maintain placement position, the modules should not be subjected to acceleration greater than 500 in/sec2 prior to reflow. Reflow There are two temperatures critical to the reflow process; the solder joint temperature and the module’s case temperature. The solder joint’s temperature should reach at least 220ºC, with a time above liquidus (183ºC) of ~30 seconds. The module’s case temperature must not exceed 208 ºC at anytime during reflow. Removal and Rework V•I Chip modules can be removed from PCBs using special tools such as those made by Air-Vac. These tools heat a very localized region of the board with a hot gas while applying a tensile force to the component (using vacuum). Prior to component heating and removal, the entire board should © be heated to 80-100ºC to decrease the component heating time as well as local PCB warping. If there are adjacent moisture-sensitive components, a 125ºC bake should be used prior to component removal to prevent popcorning. V•I Chip modules should not be expected to survive a removal operation. 239 Joint Temperature, 220ºC Case Temperature, 208ºC 183 165 degC 91 16 Soldering Time Figure 25—Thermal profile diagram Because of the ∆T needed between the pin and the case, a forcedair convection oven is preferred for reflow soldering. This reflow method generally transfers heat from the PCB to the solder joint. The module’s large mass also reduces its temperature rise. Care should be taken to prevent smaller devices from excessive temperatures. Reflow of modules onto a PCB using Air-Vac-type equipment is not recommended due to the high temperature the module will experience. Figure 26— Properly reflowed V•I Chip J-Lead.

The input of the VTM (factorized bus) should be locally bypassed with a 8 µF low Q aluminum electrolytic capacitor. Additional input capacitance may be added to improve transient performance or compensate for high source impedance. The VTM has extremely wide bandwidth so the source response to transients is usually the limiting factor in overall output response of the VTM. V•I Chips are not internally fused in order to provide flexibility in power system configuration. However, input line fusing of V•I Chips must always be incorporated within the power system. A fast acting fuse, such as NANO2 FUSE 451 Series 7 A 125 V, is required to meet safety agency Conditions of Acceptability. The input line fuse should be placed in series with the +IN port. Anomalies in the response of the source will appear at the output of the VTM, multiplied by its K factor of 1/24. The DC resistance of the source should be kept as low as possible to minimize voltage deviations on the input to the VTM. If the VTM is going to be operating close to the high limit of its input range, make sure input voltage deviations will not trigger the over voltage shutdown.
