When powering the module from a negative input voltage, this input is connected to the input source ground. –VI (1) 3 The negative input supply for the module, and the 0-V reference for the enable input. When powering the module from a positive source, this input is connected to the input source return. Remote On/Off 2 This input controls the On/Off status of the output voltage. It is either driven low (–VI potential), or left open-circuit. For units identified with the N (negative logic) option, applying a logic low to this pin will enable the output. And for units identified with the P (positive logic) option, the output will be disabled. +VO 7 This is the positive power output with respect to –VO. It is isolated from the input power pins and produces a valid output voltage approximately 80 ms before the voltage at the Track terminal is allowed to rise. This provides the required standby power source to any downstream nonisolated modules in power-up sequencing applications. –VO 4 This is the output power return for both the +VOoutput voltage. This terminal should be connected to the common of the load circuit. AutoTrack™ Enable (Optional) 6 This terminal may be used in power-up sequencing applications to control the output voltage of Auto-Track compatible modules, powered from the converter +VO output. The converter Track control has an internal, open-collector transistor, which holds the voltage close to –VO potential for approximately 80 ms after the +VO output is in regulation. Following this delay, the Track voltage rises simultaneously with the output voltages of all other modules controlled by Auto-Track. See Application Information for more details. SmartSync Clock Drive (Optional) 5 This terminal sources a 275kHz clock signal that can be used to synchronize the switching frequency of multiple downstream point-of-load power modules. Frequency synchronization eliminates beat frequencies and reduces the external filtering requirement. See Application Information for more details.

Applying a load to the output that exceeds the converter's overcurrent threshold (see applicable specification) will cause the output voltage to momentarily fold back, and then shut down. Following shutdown the module will periodically attempt to automatically recover by initiating a soft-start power-up. This is often described as a hiccup mode of operation, whereby the module continues in the cycle of successive shutdown and power up until the load fault is removed. Once the fault is removed, the converter automatically recovers and returns to normal operation. Overtemperature Protection Overtemperature protection is provided by an internal temperature sensor, which closely monitors the temperature of the converter’s printed circuit board (PCB). If the sensor exceeds a temperature of approximately 125°C, the converter will shut down. The converter will then automatically restart when the sensed temperature drops back to approximately 95°C. When operated outside its recommended thermal derating envelope (see data sheet SOA curves), the converter will typcially cycle on and off at intervals from a few seconds to one or two minutes. This is to ensure that the internal components are not permanently damaged from excessive thermal stress. Undervoltage Lockout The Undervoltage lockout (UVLO) is designed to prevent the operation of the converter until the input voltage is at the minimum input voltage. This prevents high start-up current during normal power-up of the converter, and minimizes the current drain from the input source during low input voltage conditions. The UVLO circuitry also overrides the operation of the Remote On/Off control. Primary-Secondary Isolation The converter incorporates electrical isolation between the input terminals (primary) and the output terminals (secondary). All converters are production tested to a withstand voltage of 1500 VDC. This specification complies with UL60950 and EN60950 and the requirements for operational isolation. This allows the converter to be configured for either a positive or negative input voltage source. The data sheet Pin Descriptions section provides guidance as to the correct reference that must be used for the external control signals. Input Current Limiting The converter is not internally fused. For safety and overall system protection, the maximum input current to the converter must be limited. Active or passive current limiting can be used. Passive current limiting can be a fast acting fuse. A 125-V fuse, rated no more than 10 A, is recommended. Active current limiting can be implemented with a current limited Hot-Swap controller. Thermal Considerations Airflow may be necessary to ensure that the module can supply the desired load current in environments with elevated ambient temperatures. The required airflow rate may be determined from the Safe Operating Area (SOA) thermal derating chart (see typical characteristics). 6 Submit Documentation Feedback PTQB425080 www.ti.com SLTS269A – DECEMBER 2006 – REVISED JANUARY 2007 Using the Remote On/Off Function on the PTQB425080 Series of DC/DC Converters For applications requiring output voltage On/Off control, the PTQB425080 series of DC/DC converters incorporate a Remote On/Off control (pin 2). This feature can be used to switch the module off without removing the applied input source voltage. When placed in the Off state, the standby current drawn from the input source is typically reduced to 3 mA. Negative Output Enable (N Option) Models using the negative enable option, the Remote On/Off (pin 2) control must be driven to a logic low voltage for the converter to produce an output. This is accomplished by either permanently connecting pin 2 to –VI (pin 3), or driving it low with an external control signal. Table 1 shows the input requirements of pin 2 for those modules with the NEN option. Table 1. On/Off Control Requirements for Negative Enable PARAMETER MIN VIH Disable 2.4 V VIL Enable –0.2 V Vo/c Open-Circuit II Pin 2 at –VI TYP MAX 20 V 0.8 V 9V 15 V –0.75 mA Positive Output Enable (P Option) For those models with the positive enable option, leaving pin 2 open circuit, (or driving it to an equivalent logic high voltage), will enable the converter output. This allows the module to produce an output voltage whenever a valid input source voltage is applied to +VI with respect to –VI. If a logic-low signal is then applied to pin 2 the converter output is disabled. Table 2 gives the input requirements of pin 2 for modules with the PEN option. Table 2. On/Off Control Requirements for Positive Enable PARAMETER MIN VIH Enable 4.5 V VIL Disable –0.2 V Vo/c Open-Circuit II Pin 2 at –VI TYP MAX 20 V 0.8 V 5V 7V –0.5 mA Notes: 1. The Remote On/Off control uses –VI (pin 3) as its ground reference. All voltages are with respect to –VI. 2. An open-collector device (preferably a discrete transistor) is recommended. A pull-up resistor is not required. If one is added the pull-up voltage should not exceed 20 V. Caution:Do not use a pull-resistor to +VI (pin 1). The remote On/Off control has a maximum input voltage of 20 V. Exceeding this voltage will overstress, and possibly damage, the converter. 3. The Remote On/Off pin may be controlled with devices that have a totem-pole output. This is provided the output high level voltage (VOH) meets the module's minimum VIH specified in Table 1. If a TTL gate is used, a pull-up resistor may be required to the logic supply voltage. 4. The converter incorporates an undervoltage lockout (UVLO). The UVLO keeps the converter off until the input voltage is close to the minimum specified operating voltage. This is regardless of the state of the Remote On/Off control. Consult the product specification for the UVLO input voltage thresholds.

Recommended Control for Remote On/Off Input Turn-On: With a valid input source voltage applied, the converter produces a regulated output voltage within 75 ms of the output being enabled. Figure 7 shows the output response of the PTQB425080P following the removal of the logic-low signal from the Remote On/Off (pin 2); see Figure 6. This corresponds to the drop in Q1 VGS in Figure 7. Although the rise-time of the output voltage is short (<10 ms), the indicated delay time will vary depending upon the input voltage and the module’s internal timing. The waveforms were measured with 48 VDC input voltage, and a 10-A resistive load. VO (2 V/div) Q1 VGS (2 V/div) t − Time − 4 ms/div Figure 7. Power Up Simultaneous Power-Up Sequencing Using AutoTrack™ Control (Optional Feature) The PTQB425080 bus converter will provide the input power and coordinate the power-up sequencing to two or more non-isolated, Auto-Track compliant power modules. Figure 8 shows the PTQB425080 converter (U1) configured to provide both the input source and the power-up sequence timing to two wide-nput non-isolated modules. The example shows a simplified block diagram of two PTH08T220W modules (U2 and U3), each rated for up to 16 A of output current. In this case, the number of downstream modules, and their respective output voltage and load current rating, is only limited by the amount of current available at the +VO output (25 A maximum). In this example, they are set to 3.3 V (R2 = 1.21 kΩ) and 1.8 V (R3 = 4.78 kΩ), respectively. Figure 9 shows the power-up waveforms from when the Track control of all three modules are simply connected together. The PTQB425080 converter (U1) provides the required intermediate voltage from the +VObus output to power the downstream modules, while holding the common Track control at ground potential. After allowing times for U2 and U3 to initialize, U1 removes the ground from the Track control, allowing this voltage to rise. The outputs from the two nonisolated modules then rise simultaneously to their respective set-point voltages. 8 Submit Documentation Feedback PTQB425080 www.ti.com SLTS269A – DECEMBER 2006 – REVISED JANUARY 2007 Track 6 10 +VI 1 +VI U2 +VO U1 PTQB425080N + CI 100 µF 2 7 VO Bus (8 V) 2 VPOL1 (3.3 V) Track VI VO PTH08T220W C2 100 µF On/Off C3 470 µF Inhibit GND VOAdj 11 3,4 8 −VI −VO C4 470 µF R2 1.21 kΩ −VI 3 5 + 4 10 U3 2 VPOL2 (1.8 V) Track VI VO PTH08T220W Inhibit GND VOAdj 11 3,4 8 C5 470 µF 5 C6 470 µF R3 4.78 kΩ UDG−06088 Figure 8.

Figure 10 shows a simplified block diagram of the PTQB425080 clock signal driving the SmartSync input of two PTH08T220W modules. Synchronizing modules powered from the same bus, eliminates beat frequencies reflected back to the input supply, and also reduces EMI filtering requirements. These are the benefits of Smart Sync. Power modules can also be synchronized out of phase to minimize source current loading and minimize input capacitance requirements.
