DC Bus Conver ter
The BusQor™ BQ55120ETL16 bus converter is a next-generation, board-mountable, isolated, fixed switching frequency
dc/dc converter that uses synchronous rectification to achieve
extremely high conversion efficiency. The power dissipated by
the converter is so low that a heatsink is not required, which
saves cost, weight, height, and application effort. The BusQor
series provides an isolated step down voltage from 35-55V to
a 12V intermediate bus with no regulation in a standard
“eighth-brick” module. BusQor converters are ideal for creating the mid-bus voltage required to drive point-of-load (non-isolated) converters in intermediate bus architectures. RoHS com pliant (see page 12 ).

BASIC OPERATION AND FEATURES
With voltages dropping and currents rising, the economics of an
Intermediate Bus Architecture (IBA) are becoming more attractive,
especially in systems requiring multiple low voltages. IBA systems
separate the role of isolation and voltage scaling from regulation
and sensing. The BusQor series bus converter provides isolation
and an unregulated voltage step down in one compact module,
leaving regulation to simpler, less expensive non-isolated converters.
In Figure A below, the BusQor module provides the isolation
stage of the IBA system. The isolated bus then distributes power
to the non-isolated buck regulators to generate the required voltage levels at the points of load. In this case, the bucks are represented with SynQor’s NiQor series of non-isolated dc/dc converters. In many applications requiring multiple low voltage outputs, significant savings can be achieved in board space and
overall system costs.
When designing an IBA system with bus converters, the designer
can select from a variety of bus voltages. While there is no universally ideal bus voltage, most designs employ one of the following: 12V, 9V, 7.5V, 5V, or 3.3V. Higher bus voltages can
lead to lower efficiency for the buck regulators but are more efficient for the bus converter and provide lower board level distribution current. Lower bus voltages offer the opposite trade offs.
35-55 V
12 V
16 A (192W)
Eighth-brick
the output variation of the BusQor must be in accordance with the
input voltage range of the non-isolated converters being
employed.
The BusQor architecture is very scalable, allowing for multiple
bus converters can be connected directly in parallel to allow current sharing for higher power applications.
CONTROL FEATURES
REMOTE ON/OFF (Pin 2): The ON/OFF input, Pin 2, permits
the user to control when the converter is on or off. This input is
referenced to the return terminal of the input bus, Vin(-). There
are two versions of the converter that differ by the sense of the
logic used for the ON/OFF input.
In the positive logic version, the ON/OFF input is active high
(meaning that a high turns the converter on). In the negative
logic version, the ON/OFF signal is active low (meaning that a
low turns the converter on). Figure B is a detailed look of the
internal ON/OFF circuitry. Positive logic enabled modules have
N-channel FET populated. Negative logic enabled modules have
P-channel FET populated.

SynQor’s 12Vout BusQor module acts as a true dc transformer.
The output voltage is proportional to the input voltage, with a
specified “turns ratio” or voltage ratio, plus minor drop from the
internal resistive losses in the module. When used in IBA systems,

Input Under-Voltage Lockout: The converter is designed to
turn off when the input voltage is too low, helping avoid an input
system instability problem, described in more detail in the application note titled “Input System Instability”. The lockout circuitry
is a comparator with DC hysteresis. When the input voltage is
rising, it must exceed the typical Turn-On Voltage Threshold value
(listed on the specification page) before the converter will turn
on. Once the converter is on, the input voltage must fall below
the typical Turn-Off Voltage Threshold value before the converter
will turn off. Also see Figure E.

Output Current Limit: The output of the BusQor module is
electronically protected against output overloads. When an overload current greater than the “DC Current-Limit Inception” specification is drawn from the output, the output shuts down to zero
volts in a period of 10mS typical (see Figure C). The shutdown
period lasts for a typical period of 250mS (Figure D) after which
the BusQor tries to power up again. If the overload persists, the
output voltage will go through repeated cycles of shutdown and
restart with a duty cycle of 4% (On) and 96% (Off) respectively.
The BusQor module returns (auto resetting) to normal operation
once the overload is removed. The BusQor is designed to survive
in this mode indefinitely without damage and without human
intervention.

the short circuit persists, the output voltage will go through repeated cycles of shutdown and restart with a duty cycle of 4% (On)
and 96% (Off) respectively. The BusQor module returns (auto
recovery) to normal operation once the short circuit is removed.
The BusQor is designed to survive in this mode indefinitely without damage and without human intervention.
In the Auto recovery mode, also referred to as “Hiccup” mode,
the power drawn from the 48V input is about 5 Watts, most of
which is dissipated into the external fault. It is important that copper traces and pads from the output circuit be designed to withstand the short term peaks, although the average current into the
fault may be as low as 2A typical. See Figure 17 for appropriate waveform.
Over-Temperature Shutdown: A temperature sensor on the
converter senses the average temperature of the module. The
thermal shutdown circuit is designed to turn the converter off
when the temperature at the sensed location reaches the OverTemperature Shutdown value. It will allow the converter to turn
on again when the temperature of the sensed location falls by the
amount of the Over-Temperature Shutdown Restart Hysteresis
value.

Output Short Circuit Protection: When the output of the
BusQor module is shorted, a peak current of typically 34A will
flow into the short circuit for a period of about 10mS. The output of the BusQor will shutdown to zero volts for the same period
(Figure E). The shutdown period lasts for a period of 250mS, at
the end of which the BusQor module tries to power up again. If

Start-Up Inhibit Period: Figure E details the Start-Up Inhibit
Period for the BusQor module. At time t0, when Vin is applied
with On/Off pin asserted (enabled), the BusQor output begins to
build up. Before time t1, when the input voltage is below the UVL
threshold, the unit is disabled by the Input Under-Voltage Lockout
feature. When the input voltage rises above the UVL threshold,
the Input Under-Voltage Lockout is released, and a typical Startup
Inhibit Period of 3mS is initiated. The output builds up to 90% or
higher of the nominal voltage and stabilizes at the nominal value
of 12.0V. The rise time from 0V to 90% is 1.5mS typical.
At time t2, when the On/Off pin is de-asserted (disabled), the
BusQor output instantly drops to 0V. Fall time from 12.0V to 0V
is dependent on output capacitance and any parasitic trace
inductance in the output load circuit.
At time t3, when the On/Off pin is re-asserted (enabled), the
BusQor module output begins to build up after the inhibit period
of 3mS typical.

Keep Out Areas:
Component Keep Out Area: Keep out areas for components not
referenced to the Primary circuit are shown in shaded areas in
Figure F. The keep out areas shown are consistent with UL's
requirements for Basic Insulation of 0.04" (40 mils) for Pollution
degree 2. User should consult UL standards for other insulation
classes and operating environments.
Bridging Components: Bridging components like EMI filter capacitors required to be placed as close as possible to the BusQor
module for optimum performance must observe the
clearance/creepage requirements of 0.04"(40 mils) between
pads to maintain compliance to UL standards for the overall
power system.
Note: Referenced keep out widths are adequate to withstand UL's
Basic Insulation Dielectric strength tests for approved PCB materials. Applications requiring Double or Reinforced insulation must
double the keep out widths shown in Figure F. Keep out areas
shown have standard margins above UL's minimum requirements.
Output Load Current Calculation: The BusQor series allows
the converter output load to be measured without adding a current loop or external shunt resistor to the designer’s PCB board
under test. On the top side of the BusQor converter is a current
sense resistor as shown in Figure G. The output load current is
proportional to the voltage drop across this sense resistor. This
calculation is detailed below.
A current sense resistor referenced to the primary input is used
in the equation below to calculate the output load current.
Iload = ( VRsense(load) - VRsense(no load) ) x 1333
where:
Iload = output load current
VRsense(load) = voltage across the sense resistor with
converter under load
VRsense(no load) = voltage across the sense resistor with
0.010”
converter at zero load
Figure F: Keep Out Areas for BusQor module
For applications that require mounting parts BELOW the BusQor
module, one should be aware of potential high levels of electromagnetic interference, in addition to safety keep out. Users are
advised to consult SynQor Applications engineering in such
applications.

The number 1333 is a “Load Current Scale Factor” for this
product, valid only for Vin = 48V. Hence, measurement should
be made at this input voltage.
The voltage drop across the sense resistor is about 12mV at a
full load of 16A. Therefore, proper measuring techniques must

Figure J: Current share performance of 2 paralleled modules
parallel without the use of any external current share circuitry. A
typical circuit for paralleling two BusQor modules is shown in
Figure H. An output capacitor is recommended across each module and located close to the converter for optimum filtering and
noise control performance. Dedicated input inductors are recommended but are considered optional. Input capacitors must be
located close to the converter module. PCB layout in the input circuit should be such that high frequency ripple currents of each
module is restricted to a loop formed by the input capacitors and
the input terminals of the BusQor module. See Figure K for details
on PCB layout. Contact SynQor application engineering for further assistance on PCB trace design.
