Description
The QBK-series dc-dc converters are a new generation of DC/DC power modules designed to support 12Vdc
intermediate bus applications where multiple low voltages are generated using discrete/modular point of load
(POL) converters. The QBK series provide up to 20A output current in an industry standard quarter brick, which
makes it an ideal choice for small space, high current and 12V intermediate bus voltage applications. The
converter incorporates synchronous rectification technology and innovative packaging techniques to achieve ultra
high efficiency reaching 94% at 12V full load. The ultra high efficiency of this converter leads to lower power
dissipation such that for most applications a heat sink is not required. The QBK series power modules are isolated
dc-dc converters that operate over a narrow input voltage range of 36 to 55 Vdc and provide single optimal
regulated output. The output is fully isolated from the input, allowing versatile polarity configurations and grounding
connections. Built-in 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 normal-blow fuse with a maximum rating of 12 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 9, a 100μF
electrolytic capacitor (ESR<0.7Ω at 100kHz), mounted
close to the power module helps ensure the stability of
the unit. Consult the factory for further application
guidelines.
Safety Considerations
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 9. Input Reflected Ripple Current Test Setup.
Note: Use a 1.0 µF ceramic capacitor and a 10 µF aluminum or
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., UL 1950, CSA C22.2 No. 60950-00, and VDE
0805:2001-12 (IEC60950 3rd Ed).
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:
ƒ
The input source is to be provided with reinforced
insulation from any other hazardous voltages,
including the ac mains.
ƒ
One VIN pin and one VOUT pin are to be grounded, or
both the input and output pins are to be kept
floating.
ƒ
The input pins of the module are not operator
accessible.
ƒ
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.

using a BNC socket. Position the load between

Feature Descriptions
Overcurrent Protection
Output Overvoltage Clamp
To provide protection in a fault output overload condition,
the module is equipped with internal current-limiting
circuitry and can endure current limiting for a few miliseconds. If the overcurrent condition persists beyond a
few milliseconds, 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.
An auto-restart option is also available. An auto-restart
feature continually attempts to restore the operation until
fault condition is cleared.
The output overvoltage clamp 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.
Remote On/Off
Two remote on/off 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. Negative logic,
device code suffix "1," is the factory-preferred
configuration. The on/off circuit is powered from an
internal bias supply. To turn the power module on and
off, the user must supply a switch to control the voltage
between the on/off terminal and the Vi (-) terminal
(Von/off). The switch can be an open collector or
equivalent (see Figure 12). A logic low is Von/off = 0.0V
to 0.8V. The typical Ion/off during a logic low is 10 µA.
The switch should maintain a logic-low voltage while
sinking 10µA. During a logic high, the maximum Von/off
generated by the power module is 5.0V. The maximum
allowable leakage current of the switch at Von/off = 2.0V
is 6.0µA. If using an external voltage source, the
maximum voltage V on/off on the pin is 14.0V 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 pin to VI(-).
For positive logic: leave ON/OFF pin open.
Ion/off
+
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
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.

Feature Description (continued)
Forced Load Sharing (Parallel Operation with –
P option)
For additional power requirements, the power module
can be configured for parallel operation with active load
current sharing. Good layout techniques should be
observed for noise immunity when using multiple
modules in parallel. To implement active load sharing,
the following recommendations must be followed:
•
The parallel pins of all units in parallel must be
connected together. The path of these connections
should be as direct as possible, but should not pass
beneath the perimeter of the module body, except
immediately adjacent to the parallel pin location.
•
Parallel modules must use the same 48V source.
The VIN (-) input pin is the return path for the active
current share signal of the parallel pin. Separate
48V sources will prevent the active current share
return signal from being connected to other
modules.
•
The VIN (-) input connection should never be
disconnected from any of the parallel modules, while
another of the parallel modules is operating, unless
the VIN (+) pin, or the parallel pin is also
disconnected. The VIN (-) input provides the internal
logic ground and for the module’s primary circuits,
including the active current share circuit; and there
are sneak paths through the module’s internal
control ICs, when the VIN (-) pin is disconnected
(allowing the internal logic circuit to float), while the
parallel pin and VIN (+) pin are connected to other
operating modules. These sneak paths do not cause
permanent damage, but do create false conditions
that can affect the module’s internal logic
configuration.
•
The on/off pins of all modules should also be tied
together to the same external control circuitry, so
that the modules are turned on and off at the same
time, unless all parallel modules’ on/off pins are tied
to the input pins for automatic start upon application
of input voltage.
•
When modules in parallel applications contain the
auto-restart (4) option, it is required that the total
maximum load current value be less than 90% of [n1] times the individual module output current rating,
where n is the number of modules in parallel. For
example, if the application is using three modules
rated at 20A, then the maximum total load shall be
less than 0.9 x (3-1) x 20A = 0.9 x 2 x 20A = 36A.
This insures that a single module can shutdown
without causing the total load to exceed the
capability of the remaining operating module(s). The
shutdown module can then automatically restart,
and assume its share of the total load.
10
•
In all parallel applications (including applications
meeting the [n-1] sizing criteria discussed earlier), if
it is expected that a protective shutdown event could
cause more than one parallel module to shutdown
(for example, over temperature due to a common
fan failure, or gross over current affecting two or
more modules simultaneously), then the use of the
auto-restart (4) option is not recommended. The
auto-restart interval of these modules is not
synchronized to other modules, nor is it precise.
There will not be a successful restart following
multiple module shutdowns, because the individual
module’s restart timings will be different. There will
not be sufficient module capacity to prevent the first
module which restarts from experiencing an over
current, and then again shutting down before the
slowest module has restarted. Meanwhile, the
slowest module will then restart, and then shutdown
during the interval the fastest module is waiting for
its next restart. And so on and so on. In these
cases, only latching shutdown modules should be
used; and either toggling the Vin source or the on/off
pin to simultaneously restart the modules, following
a shutdown, is advised.
When not using the parallel feature, leave the share pin
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 (TH). Peak temperature (TH)
occurs at the position indicated in Figure 13. For reliable
operation this temperature should not exceed the listed
temperature threshold.
TH
The use of Figures 14 - 15 are shown in the following
example:

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 TH temperature of the power
modules is 110 °C - 115 °C, you can limit this
temperature to a lower value for extremely high
reliability.
Heat Transfer via Convection
Increased airflow over the module enhances the heat
transfer via convection. The thermal derating figures
(14-16) show the maximum output current that can be
delivered by each module in the respective orientation
without exceeding the maximum TH temperature versus
local ambient temperature (TA) for air flows of 1 m/s (200

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.

The RoHS-compliant through-hole products use the
SAC (Sn/Ag/Cu) Pb-free solder and RoHS-compliant
components. They are designed to be processed
through single or dual wave soldering machines. The
pins have an RoHS-compliant 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 through-hole 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 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).
Please refer to the Application Note “Thermal
Characterization Process For Open-Frame BoardMounted Power Modules” for a detailed discussion of
thermal aspects including maximum device
temperatures.
Layout Considerations
The QBK020 power module series are low profile in
order to be used in fine pitch system card architectures.
