Absolute Maximum Ratings
Stresses in excess of the absolute maximum ratings can cause permanent damage to the device. These are abso-
lute stress ratings only. Functional operation of the device is not implied at these or any other conditions in excess
of those given in the operations sections of the data sheet. Exposure to absolute maximum ratings for extended
periods can adversely affect device reliability.
* With derated output power, see Thermal Considerations section.
Electrical Specifications
Unless otherwise indicated, specifications apply over all operating input voltage, resistive load, and temperature
conditions.

Fusing Considerations
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 stand-alone operation to an
integrated part of a 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 6 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 for further information.

Solder Ball and Cleanliness Requirements
The open frame (no case or potting) power module will meet the solder ball requirements per J-STD-001B. These
requirements state that solder balls must neither be loose nor violate the power module minimum electrical spacing.
The cleanliness designator of the open frame power module is C00 (per J specification).
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 circuit-board 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 the Board-Mounted Power Modules Soldering and Cleaning Application Note
(AP97-021EPS.)

HW050AF and HW050FG Power Modules: dc-dc Converters:
Design Considerations
Input Source Impedance
The power module should be connected to a low
ac-impedance input source. Highly inductive source
impedances can affect the stability of the power mod-
ule. For the test configuration in Figure 19, a 33 µF
electrolytic capacitor (ESR < 0.7 Ω at 100 kHz)
mounted close to the power module helps ensure sta-
bility of the unit. For other highly inductive source
impedances, consult the factory for further application
guidelines.
Safety Considerations
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 60950, CSA C22.2 No. 60950-00, VDE 0805
(IEC60950).
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 module’s output to be considered
meeting the requirements of safety extra-low voltage
(SELV), all of the following must be true:
nThe input source is to be provided with reinforced
insulation from any other hazardous voltages, includ-
ing the ac mains.
nOne VI pin and one VO pin are to be grounded or
both the input and output pins are to be kept floating.
nThe input pins of the module are not operator acces-
sible.
nAnother SELV reliability test is conducted on the
whole system, as required by the safety agencies, on
the combination of supply source and the subject
module to verify that under a single fault, hazardous
voltages do not appear at the module’s output.
Note: Do not ground either of the input pins of the
module without grounding one of the output pins.
This may allow a non-SELV voltage to appear
between the output pins and ground.
The power module has extra-low voltage (ELV) outputs
when all inputs are ELV.
For input voltages exceeding 60 Vdc but less than or
equal to 75 Vdc, these converters have been evaluated
to the applicable requirements of BASIC INSULATION
between secondary DC MAINS DISTRIBUTION input
(classified as TNV-2 in Europe) and unearthed SELV
outputs.
The input to these units is to be provided with a maxi-
mum 6 A normal-blow fuse in the ungrounded lead.
Feature Descriptions
Overcurrent Protection
To provide protection in a fault (output overload) condi-
tion, the unit is equipped with internal current-limiting
circuitry and can endure current limiting continuously.
At the point of current-limit inception, the unit shifts
from voltage control to current control. The form of cur-
rent-limit used is hiccup mode. The unit operates nor-
mally once the output current is brought back into its
specified range. Average output current during hiccup
mode is 30% of IO, max.
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 dur-
ing a logic high and on during a logic low. Negative
logic, device code suffix “1,” is the factory-preferred
configuration.
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 22). A logic low is Von/off = 0 V to 1.2 V. The
maximum Ion/off during a logic low is 1 mA. The switch
should maintain a logic-low voltage while sinking 1 mA.
During a logic high, the maximum Von/off generated by
the power module is 6.1 V. The maximum allowable
leakage current of the switch at Von/off = 6.1 V is 50 µA.
If not using the remote on/off feature, do one of the
following:
nFor negative logic, short ON/OFF pin to VI(–).
nFor positive logic, leave ON/OFF pin open.

Output Voltage Set-Point Adjustment
(Trim)
Output voltage set point adjustment (trim) allows the
output voltage set point to be increased or decreased.
There are two trim pins, one for each output. The
adjustment (trim) is accomplished by connecting an
external resistor between the TRIM pin and either the
Vo(+) pin or COM pin of the output to be adjusted. In
order to maintain the output voltage set-point percent-
age accuracy, the trim resistor tolerance should be
± 0.1%.The trim resistor should be positioned close to
the module.
If not using the trim feature, leave the TRIM pin(s)
open.
Connecting an external resistor (Rtrim-down) between the
TRIM pin of the desired output and COM pin decreases
the output voltage set point (see Figure 23). The follow-
ing equations determine the required external-resistor
value to obtain a percentage output voltage change of
Δ%.
The test results for these configurations are displayed
in Figure 24.

Output Voltage Set-Point Adjustment
(Trim) (continued)
Consult the factory if you need to increase the output
voltage more than the above limitation.
The amount of power delivered by the module is
defined as the voltage at the output terminals multiplied
by the output current. When using trim, the output volt-
age of the module can be increased, which at the same
output current would increase the power output of the
module. Care should be taken to ensure that the maxi-
mum output power of the module remains at or below
the maximum rated power.
Output Overvoltage Protection
The output overvoltage protection consists of circuitry
that monitors the voltage on the output terminals. If the
voltage on the output terminals exceeds the overvolt-
age protection threshold, then the module will shut
down and latch off. The overvoltage latch is reset by
either cycling the input power for one second or by
toggling the ON/OFF pin for one second.
Overtemperature Protection
To provide protection in a fault condition, the unit is
equipped with a thermal shutdown circuit. The shut-
down circuit will not engage unless the unit is operated
above the maximum device temperature. Recovery for
the thermal shutdown is accomplished by cycling the
dc input power off for at least one second or toggling
the primary referenced on/off signal for at least one
second.
Thermal Considerations
The power modules operate in a variety of thermal
environments; however, sufficient cooling should be
provided to help ensure reliable operation of the unit.
Heat is removed by convection and radiation to the sur-
rounding environment.
The thermal data presented is based on measure-
ments taken in a wind tunnel. The test setup shown in
Figure 29 was used to collect data for Figure 32
through Figure 35. Note that the orientation of the mod-
ule with respect to airflow affects thermal performance.
Two orientations are shown in Figure 30 and Figure 31.

Proper cooling can be verified by measuring the power modules temperature at the top center of the case of the
body of Q18 as shown in Figure 31.
The temperature at this location should not exceed 100 °C at full power. The output power of the module should
not exceed the rated power.

Thermal Considerations (continued)
Convection Requirements for Cooling
To predict the approximate cooling needed for the
module, determine the power dissipated as heat by the
unit for the particular application. Figure 32 and
Figure 33 show typical heat dissipation for the module
over a range of output currents. IO1 = IO2 = ½ IO for Fig-
ure 32 and Figure 33.

Output Current, TA = 25 °C
8-2600 (F)
Figure 33. HW050FG1 Power Dissipation vs.
Output Current, TA = 25 °C
With the known heat dissipation, module orientation
with respect to airflow, and a given local ambient tem-
perature, the minimum airflow can be chosen from the
derating curves in Figure 34 through Figure 35.
8-2708 (F)
Figure 34. Power Derating vs. Local Ambient Tem-
perature and Air Velocity; Best Orienta-
tion
8-2741 (F)
Figure 35. Power Derating vs. Local Ambient Tem-
perature and Air Velocity; Worst Orienta-
tion
For example, if the HW050FG1 dissipates 7.5 W of
heat at 14 A load and 48 V input voltage, the minimum
airflow for best module orientation in a 65 °C environ-
ment is 1 m/s (200 ft./min.).
Keep in mind that these derating curves are approxi-
mations of the ambient temperatures and airflows
required to keep the power module temperature below
its maximum rating. Once the module is assembled in
the actual system, the module’s temperature should be
checked to ensure it does not exceed 100 °C.
