Neither heat sink nor airflow is required when the unit operates at ambient temperature of 25°C. The unit has basic control, output adjustment and protection functions. Input (Pin 2, Pin 3) Input power Vin(+) must be connected to Positive input pin 3; Input power Vin(-) must be connected to Negative input pin2. Output (Pin 4, Pin 6) Remote Sense The unit does NOT have remote sense pins. Output Trim (Pin 5) Permits the user to adjust the output voltage up or down to achieve the custom voltage or to make the output voltage margining. The unit’s output voltage can be adjusted up 10% or down 10% relative to the rated output voltage by adding an external resistor between pin 5 and one of the output pins (pin 4 and 6). Output power Vout(+) must be connected to Positive output pin 4; Output power Vout(-) must be connected to Negative output pin6. To increase the output voltage, a trim resistor should be connected between pin 5(Trim) and pin 6 (Vout-), as shown in Fig 2. ON/OFF (Pin 1) To decrease the output voltage, a trim resistor should be connected between pin 5 (Trim) and pin 4 (Vout+), as shown in Fig 3. The recommended trim resistor values can be found in the trim table (Table 1) and charts (Fig 4 and 5). Permits the user to maintain unit On/Off, in order to properly sequence different power supplies and reduce power consumption during the standby condition. There are two ON/OFF control options: positive logic (S15-48-1.5) and negative logic (S15-48-1.5N). Both are referenced to Vin-. Pin 1 is the "Enable" pin, connecting a TTL compatible pin. A TTL control signal to this pin, according to the specification, turns the unit on or off. The positive logic unit turns on when the pin is at logic high or open, and turns off at logic low. The negative logic unit turns on when the pin is at logic low, and turns off at logic high state. Typical ON/OFF connection is shown in Fig 1. Fig 2.

However in many applications, the inductance with the distribution from the power source to the input of the unit can affect the stability of the unit. An external capacitor will improve the stability of the unit. Also in many applications, the user has to use decoupling capacitors at the output load, to ensure the hold up time for the load.

Basic insulation is provided between input and output. Fig 6 shows the measured conducted EMC. Six-sided metal shields for zero radiated emission. Caution: The unit does NOT have a fuse inside. The safety agencies require an external normal-blow fuse to be used at the input side to achieve maximum safety. The recommended fuse rating is 2A/100V. If the input source is non-SELV (ELV or a hazardous voltage greater than 60 Vdc and less than or equal to 75 Vdc), for the unit output to be considered meeting the requirements of safety extra low voltage (SELV), all of the following must be met: • The input source is to be provided with reinforced insulation from any hazardous voltage, including the ac main. • The input pins of the unit are not operator accessible. • For the whole system, for safety agencies requirements, and for the combination of the unit input side (primary side) and the output side (secondary side), verify that under a single fault, hazardous voltages do not appear at the unit output side (secondary side). • Never ground either of the input pins of the unit without grounding one of the output pins. This may allow a non-SELV voltage to appear between the output pin and ground. Fig 6. Conducted EMC (150KHz-30MHz) test result, the upper trace is the limit of EN55022 Class B specification Fig 6A.

The output load current change from 50% to 75% and return to 50% at the slew of 0.1A/µs. The input is 48V and a filter of 10µF tantalum capacitor and 1µF ceramic capacitor is used parallel to the output. The following pages contain specific plots or waveforms associated with the unit. Additional comments for specific data are provided below. Test Conditions All data presented were taken with the unit soldered to a test board, which is a 0.060” thick printed circuit board. No heat sink was used during all measurements. No airflow was used except in de-rating rest. For the input line, a 1µF /100V ceramic has been used during the test. On the output side, a 10µF tantalum capacitor with Esr < 0.12Ω and 1µF ceramic capacitor have been used. Both input and output capacitors were put close to the unit. NOTE: It is important to make sure that the components on the unit do not exceed their rating. Start up Ripple and Noise The output voltage waveform has been measured at full load condition, with 10µF tantalum capacitor plus 1µF Ceramic capacitor closely parallel to the unit’s output. Fig 14 shows the output ripple and noise waveform. Thermal De-rating For thermal de-rating, output current vs. ambient temperature and airflow rates has been tested, and the test results are given in Fig 15. Ambient temperature varies between 55°C and 90°C with the airflow of 0, 100 and 200LFM (0, 0.5m/s and 1m/s). Others Other curve and waveforms presented include output voltage vs. current curve (Fig 16) and input current ripple waveform at full load condition (Fig 17) The startup scenarios are explained in Fig 7 and 8. The measured waveforms showing the turn on transient are given in Fig 9 and 10, for both positive and negative logic control units.
