Electrical Characteristics Notes
1. Converter will undergo input over-voltage shutdown.
2. Derate output power for continuous operation for Figure 5. 135ºC is above specied operating range.
3. High or low state of input voltage must persist for about 200µs to be acted on by the lockout or shutdown circuitry.
4. Current limit inception is dened as the point where the output voltage has dropped to 90% of its nominal value.
5. Parameter not tested but guaranteed to the limit specied.
6. Load current transition time ≥ 10µs.
7. Settling time measured from start of transient to the point where the output voltage has returned to ±1% of its nal value.
8. Line voltage transition time ≥ 100µs.
9. Input voltage rise time ≤ 250µs.
10. Operating the converter at a synchronization frequency above the free running frequency will cause the converter’s efciency to be slightly reduced
and it may also cause a slight reduction in the maximum output current/power available. For more information consult the factory.
11. SHARE pin outputs a power failure warning pulse during a fault condition. See Current Share section of the Control Features description.
12. After a disable or fault event, module is inhibited from restarting for 300ms. See Shut Down section of the Control Features description.
13. Only the ES and HB grade products are tested at three temperatures. The C- grade products are tested at one temperature. Please refer to the
Construction and Environmental Stress Screening Options table for details.
14. These derating curves apply for the ES and HB grade products. The C- grade product has a maximum case temperature of 70ºC.
15. Input Over Voltage Shutdown test is run at no load, full load is beyond derating condition and could cause damage at 125ºC.
16. The specied operating case temperature for ES grade products is -45ºC to 100ºC. The specied operating case temperature for C- grade
products is 0ºC to 70ºC.

BASIC OPERATION AND FEATURES
The MQFL DC/DC converter uses a two-stage power conversion
topology. The first, or regulation, stage is a buck-converter that
keeps the output voltage constant over variations in line, load,
and temperature. The second, or isolation, stage uses trans-
formers to provide the functions of input/output isolation and
voltage transformation to achieve the output voltage required.
In the MQFL-28VE series of converters the regulation stage is
preceeded by a boost-converter that permits these converters
to operate through various Military and Aircraft under-voltage
transients. Further discussion of this feature can be found later
in these notes.
Both the regulation and the isolation stages switch at a fixed
frequency for predictable EMI performance. The isolation stage
switches at one half the frequency of the regulation stage, but
due to the push-pull nature of this stage it creates a ripple at
double its switching frequency. As a result, both the input and
the output of the converter have a fundamental ripple frequency
of about 550 kHz in the free-running mode.
Rectification of the isolation stage’s output is accomplished with
synchronous rectifiers. These devices, which are MOSFETs
with a very low resistance, dissipate far less energy than would
Schottky diodes. This is the primary reason why the MQFL
converters have such high efficiency, particularly at low output
voltages.
Besides improving efficiency, the synchronous rectifiers permit
operation down to zero load current. There is no longer a need
for a minimum load, as is typical for converters that use diodes
for rectification. The synchronous rectifiers actually permit a
negative load current to flow back into the converter’s output
terminals if the load is a source of short or long term energy.
The MQFL converters employ a “back-drive current limit” to
keep this negative output terminal current small.
There is a control circuit on both the input and output sides
of the MQFL converter that determines the conduction state
of the power switches. These circuits communicate with each
other across the isolation barrier through a magnetically coupled
device. No opto-isolators are used.
A separate bias supply provides power to both the input and
output control circuits. Among other things, this bias supply
permits the converter to operate indefinitely into a short circuit
and to avoid a hiccup mode, even under a tough start-up condi-
tion.
An input under-voltage lockout feature with hysteresis is pro-
vided, as well as an input over-voltage shutdown. There is also
an output current limit that is nearly constant as the load imped-
ance decreases to a short circuit (i.e., there is not fold-back
or fold-forward characteristic to the output current under this
condition). When a load fault is removed, the output voltage
rises exponentially to its nominal value without an overshoot.
The MQFL converter’s control circuit does not implement an out-
put over-voltage limit or an over-temperature shutdown.
The following sections describe the use and operation of addi-
tional control features provided by the MQFL converter.
UNDER-VOLTAGE TRANSIENTS
The MQFL-28VE series of DC/DC converters incorporate a
special “boost-converter” stage that permits the converters to
deliver full power through transients where its input voltage
falls to as low as 5.5V. Normally, the boost-converter is non-
operational, and the converter’s input voltage is passed directly
to its pre-regulation stage (see the Block Diagram). When an
under-voltage transient occurs, the boost-converter becomes
operational, and it steps-up the input voltage to a value greater
than 16V so that the nominal output voltage can be sustained.
It is important to note that the boost-converter stage must first
become “armed” before it can become operational. This “arm-
ing” occurs when the converter’s input voltage exceeds approxi-
mately 18V. The boost-converter then becomes operational
whenever the input voltage drops below the arming voltage, and
it will remain operational as long as the input voltage remains
within the region shown in the Under-Voltage Transient Profile
Page. If the input voltage drops below this transient profile, the
boost- converter stage is not guaranteed to continue operating
(it may, but it will protect itself from excessive stresses). Once
the boost- converter stops operating, the converter’s input volt-
age will be reconnected directly to the input of the pre-regulator
stage. The output voltage will therefore collapse unless the
input voltage is 16V, or greater.
Note: the boost-converter will not become re-armed for the next
transient unless the input voltage once again exceeds approxi-
mately 18V.
The transient profile shown on the Under-Voltage Transient
Profile page is designed to comply (with appropriate margins)
with all initial-engagement surges, starting or cranking voltage
transients, and under-voltage surges specified in:
•MIL-STD-704-8(AthroughF)
•RTCA/DO-160
•MIL-STD-1275
•DEF-STAN61-5(Part6)/5(operationalportions)
Any input voltage transient that fits within the Under-Voltage
Transient Profile can be repeated after a delay that is at least
four times longer than the duration of the previous transient.
During the time when the boost-converter stage is operational,
the converter’s efficiency is reduced and the input ripple cur-

rent is increased. The lower the input voltage, the more these
parameters are affected.
Usually the converter has an EMI filter upstream of it, and the
source voltage is connected to the input of this EMI filter. When,
during compliance testing, the source voltage goes low during
an under-voltage transient, the input to the converter will go
even lower. This is because the inductance of the EMI filter (as
well as the parasitic source inductance) will cause an oscilla-
tory ring with the bulk capacitor. With the bulk capacitor that
is present in an MQME-28 filter, the peak of this under-voltage
ring may be approximately 2 volts if the source voltage drops
to 6V (it will be smaller than this at a higher transient source
voltage due to the lower current drawn by the converter). As
a result, it is necessary to add extra bulk capacitor across the
converter’s input pins if the source voltage is going to drop
to6V, as it does for MIL-STD-704(A) or MIL-STD-1275D.Itis
recommendedthata100μF/0.25WESRcapacitorbeconnected
across the input pins of the converter be used as a starting
point. For MIL-STD-704(B-F), where the source voltage drops
toonly7V,a47μFhold-upcapacitorwouldbeagoodstarting
point. The exact amount of capacitance required depends on
the application (source induc- tance, load power, rate of fall of
the source voltage, etc). Please consult the factory if further
assistance is required.
Because input system stability is harder to maintain as the
input voltage gets lower, the MQFL-28VE series converters are
designed to give external access to the voltage node between
the boost-con- verter and the pre-regulator stages. This access,
at the “STABILITY” pin (pin 3), permits the user to add a stabi-
lizing bulk capacitor with series resistance to this node. Since the
voltage at this node stays above 16V, the amount of capacitance
required is much less than would be required on the converter’s
input pins where the voltage might drop as low as 5.5V. It is
recommendedthata22μFcapacitorwithanESRofabout1W be
connected between the STABILITY pin and the INPUT RETURN
pin (pin 2). Without this special connection to the internal node
oftheconverter,a300μFstabilizingbulkcapacitorwouldhave
been required across the converter’s input pins.
Another advantage of the STABILITY pin is that it provides a
volt- age source that stays above 16V when the under-voltage
transient occurs. This voltage source might be useful for other
circuitry in the system.
CONTROL FEATURES
ENABLE: The MQFL converter has two enable pins. Both must
have a logic high level for the converter to be enabled. A logic
low on either pin will inhibit the converter.
TheENA1pin(pin4)isreferencedwithrespecttotheconvert-
er’s input return (pin 2). The ENA2 pin (pin 12) is referenced
with respect to the converter’s output return (pin 8). This per-
mits the converter to be inhibited from either the input or the
output side.
Regardless of which pin is used to inhibit the converter, the
regulation and the isolation stages are turned off. However,
when the converter is inhibited through the ENA1 pin, the bias
supply is also turned off, whereas this supply remains on when
the converter is inhibited through the ENA2 pin. A higher input
standby current therefore results in the latter case.
Both enable pins are internally pulled high so that an open con-
nection on both pins will enable the converter. Figure A shows
the equivalent circuit looking into either enable pins. It is TTL
compatible.
SHUT DOWN: The MQFL converter will shut down in response
to only four conditions: ENA1 input low, ENA2 input low, VIN
input below under-voltage lockout threshold, or VIN input above
over-voltage shutdown threshold. Following a shutdown event,
there is a startup inhibit delay which will prevent the converter
from restarting for approximately 300ms. After the 300ms delay
elapses, if the enable inputs are high and the input voltage is
within the operating range, the converter will restart. If the VIN
input is brought down to nearly 0V and back into the operating
range, there is no startup inhibit, and the output voltage will
rise according to the “Turn-On Delay, Rising Vin” specification.
REMOTE SENSE: The purpose of the remote sense pins is
to correct for the voltage drop along the conductors that con-
nect the converter’s output to the load. To achieve this goal, a
separate conductor should be used to connect the +SENSE pin
(pin 10) directly to the positive terminal of the load, as shown
in the connection diagram on Page 2. Similarly, the –SENSE
pin (pin 9) should be connected through a separate conductor
to the return terminal of the load.
NOTE: Even if remote sensing of the load voltage is not desired,
the +SENSE and the -SENSE pins must be connected to +Vout
(pin7)andOUTPUTRETURN(pin8),respectively,togetproper

regulation of the converter’s output. If they are left open, the
converter will have an output voltage that is approximately
200mV higher than its specified value. If only the +SENSE pin
is left open, the output voltage will be approximately 25mV too
high.
Inside the converter, +SENSE is connected to +Vout with a
resistor value from 100W to 301W, depending on output volt-
age, and –SENSE is connected to OUTPUT RETURN with a 10W
resistor.
It is also important to note that when remote sense is used, the
voltageacross theconverter’soutput terminals (pins7and 8)
will be higher than the converter’s nominal output voltage due
to resistive drops along the connecting wires. This higher volt-
age at the terminals produces a greater voltage stress on the
converter’s internal components and may cause the converter
to fail to deliver the desired output voltage at the low end of
the input voltage range at the higher end of the load current
and temperature range. Please consult the factory for details.
SYNCHRONIZATION: The MQFL converter’s regulation and
isolation stage switching frequencies can be synchronized to
an external frequency source that is in the 500 kHz to 600 kHz
range.Theboost-converterstageisfree-runningatabout670
kHz while it is operational, and is not affected by synchroniza-
tion signals. A pulse train at the desired frequency should be
applied to the SYNC IN pin (pin 6) with respect to the INPUT
RETURN (pin 2). This pulse train should have a duty cycle in the
20% to 80% range. Its low value should be below 0.8V to be
guaranteed to be interpreted as a logic low, and its high value
should be above 2.0V to be guaranteed to be interpreted as a
logic high. The transition time between the two states should
be less than 300ns.
If the MQFL converter is not to be synchronized, the SYNC IN
pin should be left open circuit. The converter will then operate in
its free-running mode at a frequency of approximately 550 kHz.
If, due to a fault, the SYNC IN pin is held in either a logic low
or logic high state continuously, the MQFL converter will revert
to its free-running frequency.
The MQFL converter also has a SYNC OUT pin (pin 5). This
output can be used to drive the SYNC IN pins of as many as ten
(10) other MQFL converters. The pulse train coming out of SYNC
OUT has a duty cycle of 50% and a frequency that matches the
switching frequency of the converter with which it is associated.
This frequency is either the free-running frequency if there is no
synchronization signal at the SYNC IN pin, or the synchroniza-
tion frequency if there is.
The SYNC OUT signal is available only when the voltage at the
STABILITY pin (pin 3) is above approximately 12V and when
the converter is not inhibited through the ENA1 pin. An inhibit
through the ENA2 pin will not turn the SYNC OUT signal off.
NOTE: An MQFL converter that has its SYNC IN pin driven by
the SYNC OUT pin of a second MQFL converter will have its start
of its switching cycle delayed approximately 180 degrees rela-
tive to that of the second converter.
Figure B shows the equivalent circuit looking into the SYNC IN
pin. Figure C shows the equivalent circuit looking into the
SYNC OUT pin.

CURRENT SHARE: When several MQFL converters are placed
in parallel to achieve either a higher total load power or N+1
redundancy, their SHARE pins (pin 11) should be connected
together. The voltage on this common SHARE node represents
the average current delivered by all of the paralleled converters.
Each converter monitors this average value and adjusts itself so
that its output current closely matches that of the average.
Since the SHARE pin is monitored with respect to the OUTPUT
RETURN (pin 8) by each converter, it is important to connect
all of the converters’ OUTPUT RETURN pins together through a
low DC and AC impedance. When this is done correctly, the
converters will deliver their appropriate fraction of the total load
current to within +/- 10% at full rated load.

Whether or not converters are paralleled, the voltage at the
SHARE pin could be used to monitor the approximate aver-
age current delivered by the converter(s). A nominal voltage
of 1.0V represents zero current and a nominal voltage of 2.2V
represents the maximum rated current, with a linear relationship
in between. The internal source resistance of a converter’s
SHARE pin signal is 2.5 kW. During an input voltage fault or
primary disable event, the SHARE pin outputs a power failure
warning pulse. The SHARE pin will go to 3V for approximately
14msastheoutputvoltagefalls.
NOTE: Converters operating from separate input filters with
reverse polarity protection (such as the MQME-28-T filter) with
their outputs connected in parallel may exhibit hiccup operation
at light loads. Consult factory for details.
OUTPUT VOLTAGE TRIM: If desired, it is possible to increase
the MQFL converter’s output voltage above its nominal value.
To do this, use the +SENSE pin (pin 10) for this trim function
instead of for its normal remote sense function, as shown in
Figure D. In this case, a resistor connects the +SENSE pin to
the –SENSE pin (which should still be connected to the output
return, either remotely or locally). The value of the trim resistor
should be chosen according to the following equation or from
Figure E:
where:
Vnom = the converter’s nominal output voltage,
Vout = the desired output voltage (greater than Vnom), and
Rtrim is in Ohms.
As the output voltage is trimmed up, it produces a greater
voltage stress on the converter’s internal components and may
cause the converter to fail to deliver the desired output voltage
at the low end of the input voltage range at the higher end of
the load current and temperature range. Please consult the
factory for details. Factory trimmed converters are available
by request.
INPUT UNDER-VOLTAGE LOCKOUT: The MQFL converter
has an under-voltage lockout feature that ensures the con-
verter will be off if the input voltage is too low. This lockout
only appears when the boost-converter is not operating. The
threshold of input voltage at which the converter will turn on is
higher that the threshold at which it will turn off. In addition, the
MQFL converter will not respond to a state of the input voltage
unlessithasremainedinthatstateformorethanabout200μs.
This hysteresis and the delay ensure proper operation when the
source impedance is high or in a noisy environment.
INPUT OVER-VOLTAGE SHUTDOWN: The MQFL converter
also has an over-voltage feature that ensures the converter will
be off if the input voltage is too high. It also has a hysteresis
and time delay to ensure proper operation.

BACK-DRIVE CURRENT LIMIT: Converters that use MOSFETs
as synchronous rectifiers are capable of drawing a negative cur-
rent from the load if the load is a source of short- or long-term
energy. This negative current is referred to as a “back-drive
current”.
Conditions where back-drive current might occur include paral-
leled converters that do not employ current sharing, or where
the current share feature does not adequately ensure sharing
during the startup or shutdown transitions. It can also occur
when converters having different output voltages are connected
together through either explicit or parasitic diodes that, while
normally off, become conductive during startup or shutdown.
Finally, some loads, such as motors, can return energy to their
power rail. Even a load capacitor is a source of back-drive
energy for some period of time during a shutdown transient.
To avoid any problems that might arise due to back-drive cur-
rent, the MQFL converters limit the negative current that the
converter can draw from its output terminals. The threshold
for this back-drive current limit is placed sufficiently below zero
so that the converter may operate properly down to zero load,
but its absolute value (see the Electrical Characteristics page) is
small compared to the converter’s rated output current.
When the converter is mounted on a metal plate, the plate will
help to make the converter’s case bottom a uniform tempera-
ture. How well it does so depends on the thickness of the plate
and on the thermal conductance of the interface layer (e.g. ther-
mal grease, thermal pad, etc.) between the case and the plate.
Unless this is done very well, it is important not to mistake the
plate’s temperature for the maximum case temperature. It is
easy for them to be as much as 5-10ºC different at full power
and at high temperatures. It is suggested that a thermocouple
be attached directly to the converter’s case through a small hole
in the plate when investigating how hot the converter is getting.
Care must also be made to ensure that there is not a large
thermal resistance between the thermocouple and the case due
to whatever adhesive might be used to hold the thermocouple
in place.
INPUT SYSTEM INSTABILITY: This
condition can occur
because any DC/DC converter appears incrementally as a
negative resistance load. A detailed application note titled
“Input System Instability” is available on the SynQor website
which provides an understanding of why this instability arises,
and shows the preferred solution for correcting it.
THERMAL CONSIDERATIONS: Figure 5 shows the suggested
Power Derating Curves for this converter as a function of the
case temperature, input voltage and the maximum desired
power MOSFET junction temperature. All other components
within the converter are cooler than its hottest MOSFET.
The Mil-HDBK-1547A component derating guideline calls
for a maximum component temperature of 105ºC. Figure 5
therefore has one power derating curve that ensures this limit
is maintained. It has been SynQor’s extensive experience that
reliable long-term converter operation can be achieved with
a maximum component temperature of 125ºC. In extreme
cases,amaximumtemperatureof145ºCispermissible,butnot
recommended for long-term operation where high reliability is
required. Derating curves for these higher temperature limits
are also included in Figure 5. The maximum case temperature
at which the converter should be operated is 135ºC.
