TM The Austin MicroLynx SMT module is designed for low output ripple voltage and will meet the maximum output ripple specification with 1 µF ceramic and 10 µF tantalum capacitors at the output of the module. However, additional output filtering may be required by the system designer for a number of reasons. First, there may be a need to further reduce the output ripple and noise of the module. Second, the dynamic response characteristics may need to be customized to a particular load step change. To reduce the output ripple and improve the dynamic response to a step load change, additional capacitance at the output can be used. Low ESR polymer and ceramic capacitors are recommended to improve the dynamic response of the module. For stable operation of the module, limit the capacitance to less than the maximum output capacitance as specified in the electrical specification table. LINEAGE POWER For the converter output to be considered meeting the requirements of safety extra-low voltage (SELV), the input must meet SELV requirements. The power module has extra-low voltage (ELV) outputs when all inputs are ELV. The input to these units is to be provided with a fastacting fuse with a maximum rating of 6A in the positive input lead. 12 Austin MicroLynxTM SMT Non-isolated Power Modules: 3.0 – 5.8Vdc input; 0.75Vdc to 4.0Vdc Output; 5A output current Data Sheet June 24, 2008 Feature Description Overcurrent Protection Remote On/Off TM The Austin MicroLynx SMT power modules feature an On/Off pin for remote On/Off operation of the module. If not using the remote On/Off pin, leave the pin open (module will be On). The On/Off pin signal (Von/Off) is referenced to ground. To switch the module on and off using remote On/Off, connect an open collector pnp transistor between the On/Off pin and the VIN pin (See Figure 29). When the transistor Q1 is in the OFF state, the power module is ON (Logic Low on the On/Off of the module) and the maximum Von/off of the module is 0.4 V. The maximum allowable leakage current of the transistor when Von/off = 0.4V and VIN = VIN,max is 10μA. During a logic-high when the transistor is in the active state, the power module is OFF. During this state VOn/Off = 2.5V to 5.8V and the maximum IOn/Off = 1mA. VIN(+) Lynx-Series Module Q1 Enable 20k Input Undervoltage Lockout At input voltages below the input undervoltage lockout limit, module operation is disabled. The module will begin to operate at an input voltage above the undervoltage lockout turn-on threshold. Overtemperature Protection To provide over temperature protection in a fault condition, the unit relies upon the thermal protection feature of the controller IC. The unit will shutdown if the o thermal reference point Tref, exceeds 150 C (typical), but the thermal shutdown is not intended as a guarantee that the unit will survive temperatures beyond its rating. The module will automatically restart after it cools down. IOn/Off On/Off Pin To provide protection in a fault (output overload) condition, the unit is equipped with internal current-limiting circuitry and can endure current limiting continuously. At the point of current-limit inception, the unit enters hiccup mode. The unit operates normally once the output current is brought back into its specified range. The typical average output current during hiccup is 2A. Css 14k GND Figure 29. Remote On/Off Implementation. Remote On/Off can also be implemented using opencollector logic devices with an external pull-up resistor. Figure 30 shows the circuit configuration using this approach. Pull-up resistor Rpull-up, for the configuration should be 5k (+/- 5%) for proper operation of module over the entire temperature range.

Without an external resistor between TRIM pin and the ground, the output voltage of the module is 0.75 Vdc. To calculate the value of the resistor Rtrim for a particular output voltage Vo, use the following equation: ⎡ 21070 ⎤ Rtrim = ⎢ − 5110⎥ Ω Vo − 0 . 7525 ⎣ ⎦ ⎡ 21070 ⎤ Rtrim = ⎢ − 5110⎥ 1 . 8 − 0 . 7525 ⎣ ⎦ Vtrim Table 1 provides Rtrim values required for some common output voltages, while Table 2 provides values of the external voltage source, Vtrim for the same common output voltages.

LINEAGE POWER 15 Austin MicroLynxTM SMT Non-isolated Power Modules: 3.0 – 5.8Vdc input; 0.75Vdc to 4.0Vdc Output; 5A output current Data Sheet June 24, 2008 Thermal Considerations Power modules operate in a variety of thermal environments; however, sufficient cooling should always be provided to help ensure reliable operation. 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. Note that the airflow is parallel to the long axis of the module as shown in figure 34. The test set-up is shown in figure 35. The derating data applies to airflow in either direction of the module’s long axis. 25.4_ (1.0) Wind Tunnel PWBs Power Module 76.2_ (3.0) x Air Flow 5.97_ (0.235) Probe Location for measuring airflow and ambient temperature Air flow Figure 35.

The modules are fitted with a label designed to provide a large surface area for pick and place operations. The label meets all the requirements for surface mount processing, as well as safety standards, and is able to withstand reflow o temperatures of up to 300 C. The label also carries product information such as product code, serial number and the location of manufacture. TM The Austin MicroLynx SMT power modules are large mass, low thermal resistance devices and typically heat up slower than other SMT components. It is recommended that the customer review data sheets in order to customize the solder reflow profile for each application board assembly. The following instructions must be observed when soldering these units. Failure to observe these instructions may result in the failure of or cause damage to the modules, and can adversely affect long-term reliability. o Typically, the eutectic solder melts at 183 C, wets the land, and subsequently wicks the device connection. Sufficient time must be allowed to fuse the plating on the connection to ensure a reliable solder joint. There are several types of SMT reflow technologies currently used in the industry. These surface mount power modules can be reliably soldered using natural forced convection, IR (radiant infrared), or a combination of convection/IR. For reliable soldering the solder reflow profile should be established by accurately measuring the modules pin temperatures. All dimensions are in millimeters and (inches). Figure 36. Pick and Place Location. Nozzle Recommendations The module weight has been kept to a minimum by using open frame construction. Even so, these modules have a relatively large mass when compared to conventional SMT components. Variables such as nozzle size, tip style, vacuum pressure and placement speed should be considered to optimize this process. The minimum recommended nozzle diameter for reliable operation is 6mm. The maximum nozzle outer diameter, which will safely fit within the allowable component spacing, is 9 mm. Oblong or oval nozzles up to 11 x 9 mm may also be used within the space available.

Failure to observe the instructions below may result in the failure of or cause damage to the modules and can adversely affect long-term reliability. Pb-free Reflow Profile Power Systems will comply with J-STD-020 Rev. C (Moisture/Reflow Sensitivity Classification for Nonhermetic Solid State Surface Mount Devices) for both Pb-free solder profiles and MSL classification procedures. This standard provides a recommended forced-air-convection reflow profile based on the volume and thickness of the package (table 4-2). The suggested Pb-free solder paste is Sn/Ag/Cu (SAC). The recommended linear reflow profile using Sn/Ag/Cu solder is shown in Fig. 38. sealed packages should not be broken until time of use. Once the original package is broken, the floor life of the product at conditions of ≤ 30°C and 60% relative humidity varies according to the MSL rating (see J-STD-033A). The shelf life for dry packed SMT packages will be a minimum of 12 months from the bag seal date, when stored at the following conditions: < 40° C, < 90% relative humidity. 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 Board Mounted Power Modules: Soldering and Cleaning Application Note (AN04-001). 300 MSL Rating Per J-STD-020 Rev.
