PRELIMINARY (R) (R) A SUBSIDIARY OF C&D TECHNOLOGIES Single Output LQN D12 Models Non Isolated, 12VIN, 0.8-5VOUT 45-50 Amp, 1/4-Brick DC/DC Converters Features The LQN D12 Series of non-isolated quarter bricks are ideal building blocks for emerging, on-board power-distribution schemes in which isolated 12V buses deliver power to any number of non-isolated, step-down buck regulators. LQN D12 DC/DC's accept a 12V input (10.2V to 13.8V input range) and convert it, with the highest efficiency in the smallest space, to a 0.8, 1, 1.2, 1.5, 1.8, 2, 2.5, 3.3 or 5 Volt output fully rated at 45-50 Amps. LQN D12's are ideal POLPP's (point-of-use/load power processors) and they typically require no external components. They occupy the standard quarter brick board space (1.45" x 2.3") and come in either through-hole packages or surfacemount packages with a profile of only 0.4" (0.5" including heatsink). The LQN's best-in-class power density is achieved with a fully synchronous, fixed-frequency, 3-phase buck topology that delivers extremely high efficiency (95% for 5VOUT models), low noise (20mVp-p typ.), tight line/load regulation (0.25% max.), quick step response (70sec), stable no-load operation, and no output reverse conduction. The fully functional LQN's feature input over/undervoltage lockout, output overvoltage and overcurrent detection, continuous short-circuit protection, overtemperature protection, an output-voltage trim function, a remote on/off control pin, a sense pin and a current share function (optional). High efficiency enables the LQN D12's to deliver rated output currents of 50 Amps at high ambient temperatures and minimal air flow. If your new system boards call for multiple supply voltages, check out the economics of on-board 12V distributed power. If you don't need to pay for multiple isolation barriers, DATEL's non-isolated LQN D12 brick's will save you money. 3-phase buck regulators for new distributed 12V power architectures 12V input (10.2-13.8V range) 0.8/1/1.2/1.5/1.8/2/2.5/3.3/5VOUT @ 45-50A Non-isolated, fixed-frequency, synchronous-rectifier topology 1/4-brick size, through hole or SMT Current share/N+1 redundancy 1% setpoint accuracy Efficiencies to 94% @ 45 Amps Noise as low as 20mVp-p Stable no-load operation On/Off control, trim & sense functions Output Overvoltage Protection Input Over/Undervoltage lockout Thermal shutdown Designed to meet UL/EN/IEC60950 EMC compliant Only one phase of three shown.

The operating input voltage is 10.2V to 13.8V. However, 10.8VIN is required for the DC/DC to properly start up under all line, load and temperature conditions. The 10.8V potential must be maintained across the inputs until the output is up and regulating. After the output is regulating, the operating input range is 10.2V to 13.8V.

All models are tested and specified with external 33F input capacitor and 470F poscap output capacitor paralleled with a 100F ceramic output capacitor. Ripple/Noise (R/N) is tested/specified over a 20MHz bandwidth. These devices have no minimum-load requirements and will regulate under no-load conditions.

These capacitors are necessary to accommodate our test equipment and may not be required to achieve specified performance in your applications. All models are stable and regulate within spec under no-load conditions. [2] Input Ripple Current is tested and specified over a 5-20MHz bandwidth. Input filtering is CIN = 200F tantalum (100 || 100), CBUS = 1000F electrolytic, LBUS = 1H. [3] Note that Maximum Power Derating curves indicate an average current at nominal input voltage. At higher temperatures and/or lower airflow, the DC/DC converter will tolerate shorter full current outputs if the total RMS current over time does not exceed the Derating curve. [4] Mean Time Before Failure is calculated using the Telcordia (Belcore) SR-332 Method 1, Case 3, ground fixed conditions, TPCBOARD = +25C, full output load, natural air convection. [5] The On/Off Control (pin 4) may be driven with external logic or by applying appropriate external voltages which are referenced to Common, pin 1. The On/Off Control Input should use either an open collector/open drain transistor or logic gate which does not exceed +VIN. The On/Off Control may be supplied with positive logic (LO = off, HI = on) under special quantity order. [6] Short circuit shutdown begins when the output voltage degrades approximately 2% from the selected setting. [7] The outputs are not intended to sink appreciable reverse current. If the outputs are forced to sink excessive current, damage may result. [8] Output noise may be further reduced by adding an external filter. See I/O Filtering and Noise Reduction. [9] All models are fully operational and meet published specifications, including "cold start" at -40C. [10] Regulation specifications describe the deviation as the line input voltage or output load current is varied from a nominal midpoint value to either extreme.

The specification defines the interval between the point at which the converter is turned on (released) and the fully loaded output voltage enters and remains within its specified accuracy band. Absolute Maximum Ratings Input Voltage Continuous or Transient 15.5 Volts maximum On/Off Control (pin 4) +VIN maximum Input Reverse Polarity Protection See Fuse section Output Overvoltage Protection VOUT +20% maximum Output Current Current-limited (See note 7). Devices can withstand sustained short circuit without damage. Storage Temperature -55 to +125C. Lead Temperature (soldering 10 sec. max.) +300C. Refer to solder profile. Similar to the VIN to VOUT start-up, the On/Off Control to VOUT start-up time is also governed by the internal soft start circuitry and external load capacitance. The difference in start up time from VIN to VOUT and from On/Off Control to VOUT is therefore insignificant. Input Undervoltage Shutdown and Start-Up Threshold Under normal start-up conditions, devices will not begin to regulate properly until the ramping-up input voltage exceeds the Start-Up Threshold Voltage. Once operating, devices will not turn off until the input voltage drops below the Undervoltage Shutdown limit. Subsequent re-start will not occur until the input is brought back up to the Start-Up Threshold. This built in hysteresis prevents any unstable on/off situations from occurring at a single input voltage. Absolute maximums are stress ratings. Exposure of devices to any of these conditions may adversely affect long-term reliability. Proper operation under conditions other than those listed in the Performance/Functional Specifications Table is not implied nor recommended. Input Overvoltage Shutdown TECHNICAL NOTES All LQN DC/DC's are equipped with input overvoltage protection. Input voltages exceeding the input overvoltage shutdown specification listed in the Performance/Functional Specifications will cause the device to shut down. A built-in hysterisis for all models will not allow the converter to restart until the input voltage is sufficiently reduced. Input Fusing Certain applications and/or safety agencies may require the installation of fuses at the inputs of power conversion components. Fuses should also be used if the possibility of sustained, non-current-limited, input-voltage polarity reversals exists. For DATEL LQN series DC/DC converters, we recommend the use of a time delay fuse, installed in the ungrounded input supply line, with a value no greater than the following: Model Fuse Value LQN-1/50-D12 12.5 Amps LQN-1.8/50-D12 15 Amps LQN-2.5/45-D12 25 Amps LQN-3.3/45-D12 30 Amps Input Source Impedance The input of LQN converters must be driven from a low ac-impedance source. The DC/DC's performance and stability can be compromised by the use of highly inductive source impedances. The input circuit shown in Figure 2 is a practical solution that can be used to minimize the effects of inductance in the input traces. For optimum performance, components should be mounted close to the DC/DC converter. I/O Filtering, Input Ripple Current, and Output Noise As a rule of thumb however, we recommend the use of a normal-blow or slow-blow fuse with a typical value about twice the maximum input current, calculated at low line with the converter's minimum efficiency. All LQN Series models are tested/specified for input reflected ripple current and output noise using the specified external input/output components/circuits and layout as shown in the following two figures. External input capacitors (CIN in Figure 2) serve primarily as energy-storage elements, minimizing line voltage variations caused by transient IR drops in conductors from backplane to the DC/DC. Input caps should be selected for bulk capacitance (at appropriate frequencies), low ESR, and high rms-ripple-current ratings. All relevant national and international safety standards and regulations must be observed by the installer. For system safety agency approvals, the converters must be installed in compliance with the requirements of the end-use safety standard, i.e. IEC/EN/UL60950. Input Reverse-Polarity Protection If the input voltage polarity is accidentally reversed, an internal diode will become forward biased and likely draw excessive current from the power source. If this source is not current limited or the circuit appropiately fused, it could cause permanent damage to the converter. Start-Up Time The VIN to VOUT Start-Up Time is the time interval between the point at which the ramping input voltage crosses the Start-Up Threshold and the fully loaded output voltage enters and remains within its specified accuracy band. Actual measured times will vary with input source impedance, external input capacitance, and the slew rate and final value of the input voltage as it appears at the converter. The LQN Series implements a soft start circuit to limit the duty cycle of its PWM controller at power up, thereby limiting the input inrush current. Figure 2. Measuring Input Ripple Current 4 LQN D12 Models N O N - I S O L AT E D , 4 5 - 5 0 A Q UA R T E R B R I C K , D C / D C C O N V E R T E R S The switching nature of DC/DC converters requires that dc voltage sources have low ac impedance as highly inductive source impedance can affect system stability. In Figure 2, CBUS and LBUS simulate a typical dc voltage bus. Your specific system configuration may necessitate additional considerations. and +Output to trim down the output voltage, or between the Trim pin and Common to trim up the output voltage. Fixed resistors should have absolute TCR's less than 100ppm/C to ensure stability. The equations below can be used as starting points for selecting specific trimresistor values. Recall, untrimmed devices are guaranteed to be 1% accurate. Minimum Output Loading Requirements Adjustment beyond the specified adjustment range is not recommended. If trim is not desired, leave the Trim pin open. LQN converters employ a synchronous-rectifier design topology and all models regulate within spec and are stable under no-load to full load conditions. Operation under no-load conditions however might slightly increase the output ripple and noise. Thermal Shutdown The LQN converters are equipped with thermal-shutdown circuitry. If environmental conditions cause the temperature of the DC/DC converter to rise above the designed operating temperature, a precision temperature sensor will power down the unit. When the internal temperature decreases below the threshold of the temperature sensor, the unit will self start. See Performance/ Functional Specifications. Figure 3. Trim Connections Using a Trimpot Output Overvoltage Protection The LQN output voltage is monitored for an overvoltage condition using a comparator. The signal is optically coupled to the primary side and if the output voltage rises to a level which could be damaging to the load, the sensing circuitry will power down the PWM controller causing the output voltage to decrease. Following a time-out period the PWM will restart, causing the output voltage to ramp to its appropriate value. If the fault condition persists, and the output voltage again climbs to excessive levels, the overvoltage circuitry will initiate another shutdown cycle. This on/off cycling is referred to as "hiccup" mode. Note: Install either a fixed trim-up resistor or a fixed trim-down resistor depending upon desired output voltage. Figure 4. Trim Connections Using Fixed Resistors The LQN Series will withstand higher external sources several volts above the nominal output. However, if there is a chance of consistent overvoltage, users should provide an external voltage clamp or other protection. Trim Equations Output Overcurrent Detection Overloading the power converter's output for an extended time will invariably cause internal component temperatures to exceed their maximum ratings and eventually lead to component failure. High-current-carrying components such as inductors, FET's and diodes are at the highest risk. LQN Series DC/DC converters incorporate an output overcurrent detection and shutdown function that serves to protect both the power converter and its load. If the output current exceeds it maximum rating by typically 40% or if the output voltage drops to less than 98% of it original value, the LQN's internal overcurrent-detection circuitry immediately turns off the converter, which then goes into a "hiccup" mode. While hiccupping, the converter will continuously attempt to restart itself, go into overcurrent, and then shut down. Under these conditions, both the average output current and the average input current will be kept extremely low. Once the output short is removed, the converter will automatically restart itself. Output Voltage Trimming Allowable trim ranges are 10%. Trimming is accomplished with either a trimpot or a single fixed resistor. The trimpot should be connected between +Output and Common with its wiper connected to the Trim pin as shown in Figure 3 below. Note: LQN-0.8/50-D12 is not trimmable. Note: Resistor values are in k. Accuracy of adjustment is subject to tolerances of resistors and factory-adjusted, initial output accuracy. VO = desired output voltage. VONOM = nominal output voltage. A trimpot can be used to determine the value of a single fixed resistor which can then be connected, as shown in Figure 4, between the Trim pin 5 LXN D12 Series N O N - I S O L AT E D , 4 5 - 5 0 A Q UA R T E R B R I C K , D C / D C C O N V E R T E R S Return Current Paths Power-up sequencing The LQN D12 are non-isolated DC/DC converters. Their Common pins (pins 1, 6 and 8) are connected to each other internally (see Figure 1). To the extent possible (with the intent of minimizing ground loops), input return current should be directed through pin 1 (also referred to as -Input or Input Return), and output return current should be directed through pin 6 and 8 (also referred to as -Output or Output Return). Any on/off control signals applied to pin 4 (On/Off Control) should be referenced to Common (specifically pin 1). If a controlled start-up of one or more LQN D12 Series DC/DC converters is required, or if several output voltages need to be powered-up in a given sequence, the On/Off control pin can be pulled high to +VIN with an external 5.6k restistor. While input voltage and/or other converters are ramping up, the control pin is pulled high and the converter remains disabled. To enable the output voltage, the control pin needs to be pulled low in the configuration shown in Figure 6. Safety Considerations LQN D12's are non-isolated DC/DC converters. In general, all DC/DC's must be installed, including considerations for I/O voltages and spacing/separation requirements, in compliance with relevant safety-agency specifications (usually UL/IEC/EN60950). In particular, for a non-isolated converter's output voltage to meet SELV (safety extra low voltage) requirements, its input must be SELV compliant. If the output needs to be ELV (extra low voltage), the input must be ELV. External Input Open: On/Off pin High = DC/DC converter Off External Input Low: On/Off pin Low = DC/DC converter On On/Off Control The On/Off Control pin may be used for remote on/off operation. LQN D12 Series DC/DC converters are designed so that they are enabled when the control pin is left open (or pulled low to 0 to +0.4V) and disabled when the control pin is pulled high (+2.8V to +VIN). As shown in Figure 5, all models have an internal 20k pull-down resistor to Common (ground). Figure 6. Driving The Power-Up With An External Pull-up Resistor Remote Sense Note: The Sense and VOUT lines are internally connected through low-value resistors. Nevertheless, if the sense function is not used for remote regulation the user should connect the +Sense to +VOUT at the DC/DC converter pins. Dynamic control of the on/off function is best accomplished with a mechanical relay or open-collector/open-drain drive circuit (optically isolated if appropriate). The drive circuit should be able to sink appropriate current when activated and withstand appropriate voltage when deactivated. LQN series converters employ a sense feature to provide point of use regulation, thereby overcoming moderate IR drops in pcb conductors or cabling. The remote sense line carries very little current and therefore require minimal cross-sectional-area conductors. As such, they are not low impedance points and must be treated with care in layouts and cabling. Sense lines on a pcb should be run adjacent to dc signals, preferably ground. In cables and discrete wiring applications, twisted pair or other techniques should be implemented. ON/OFF pin open: Logic Low = DC/DC converter On ON/OFF pin >2.8V: Logic High = DC/DC converter Off Figure 5. Driving the On/Off Control Pin The on/off control can be driven using a circuit comparable to that shown in Figure 5. Leaving the On/Off control pin open or applying a voltage between 0V and +0.4V will turn on the converter. Applied voltages between +2.8V and +VIN will disable the converter. Figure 7. Remote Sense Circuit Configuration 6 N O N - I S O L AT E D , 4 5 - 5 0 A Q UA R T E R B R I C K , D C / D C C O N V E R T E R S To prevent high frequency voltage differences between VOUT and Sense, we recommend installation of a 1000pF capacitor close to the converter. The sense function is capable of compensating for voltage drops between the +Output and +Sense pins that do not exceed 10% of VOUT. [VOUT(+) - Common] - [Sense(+) - Common] 10%VOUT Power derating (output current limiting) is based upon maximum output current and voltage at the converter's output pins. Use of trim and sense functions can cause the output voltage to increase, thereby increasing output power beyond the converter's specified rating. Therefore: (VOUT at pins) x (IOUT) rated output power The internal 10.5 resistor between +Sense and +Output (see Figure 1) serves to protect the sense function by limiting the output current flowing through the sense line if the main output is disconnected. It also prevents output voltage runaway if the sense connection is disconnected. Note: If devices have the +Sense pin (pin 10) installed (no part-number suffix) and the sense function is not used for remote regulation, +Sense (pin 10) must be tied to +Output (pin 7, 9) at the DC/DC converter pins. Output overvoltage protection is monitored at the output voltage pin, not the Sense pin. Therefore, excessive voltage differences between VOUT and Sense in conjunction with trim adjustment of the output voltage can cause the overvoltage protection circuitry to activate (see Performance Specifications for overvoltage limits). Power derating is based on maximum output current and voltage at the converter's output pins. Temperature/power derating is based on maximum output current and voltage at the converter's output pins. The Trim pin (pin 2) is a relatively high impedance node that can be susceptible to noise pickup when connected to long conductors in noisy environments. In such cases, a 0.22F capacitor to ground can be added to reduce this long lead effect. 7 LQN D12 Models LXN D12 Series N O N - I S O L AT E D , 4 5 - 5 0 A Q UA R T E R B R I C K , D C / D C C O N V E R T E R S Typical Performance Curves LQN-1.8/50-D12 Maximum Output Current vs. Ambient Temperature (With heatsink, air flow direction from input to output pins, VIN = VNOM) LQN-1.8/50-D12 Efficiency vs. Line Voltage and Load Current @ 25C 95 60 93 Output Current (Amps) 50 Efficiency (%) 91 89 VIN = 10.2V 87 VIN = 12V 85 VIN = 13.8V Natural Convection 40 100 lfm 30 200 lfm 20 400 lfm 10 0 -40 83 0 30 40 50 60 70 80 90 100 Ambient Temperature (C) 81 8 14 20 26 32 38 44 50 Load Current (Amps) LQN-2.5/45-D12 Internal Power Dissipation vs. Load Current LQN-2.5/45-D12 Efficiency vs. Line Voltage and Load Current @ 25C 94 93 Power Dissipation (Watts) 12 92 Efficiency (%) 91 90 VIN = 10.2V 89 88 VIN = 12V 87 VIN = 13.8V 10 VIN = 12V 8 VIN = 10.2V 6 VIN = 13.8V 86 85 4 84 83 6.8 2 11.6 16.3 21.1 25.9 30.7 35.4 40.2 2 45 6.8 11.6 21.1 25.9 30.7 35.4 40.2 45 LQN-3.3/45-D12 Maximum Output Current vs. Ambient Temperature (With heatsink, air flow direction from input to output pins, VIN = VNOM) LQN-3.3/45-D12 Efficiency vs. Line Voltage and Load Current @ 25C 95 60 93 Output Current (Amps) 50 91 Efficiency (%) 16.3 Load Current (Amps) Load Current (Amps) 89 VIN = 10.2V 87 VIN = 12V 85 VIN = 13.8V 40 Natural Convection 30 100 lfm 20 200 lfm 10 0 -40 83 400 lfm 0 30 40 50 60 70 Ambient Temperature (C) 81 5 9.4 13.9 18.3 22.8 27.2 31.7 36.1 40.6 45 Load Current (Amps) 8 80 90 100 N O N - I S O L AT E D , 4 5 - 5 0 A Q UA R T E R B R I C K , D C / D C C O N V E R T E R S P A R T N U M B E R LQN D12 Models S T R U C T U R E 8 Model Options L QN - 1.8 / 50 - D12 M B Output Configuration: L = Unipolar Low Voltage Heat Transfer: Blank = No heatsink or baseplate B = Basplate installed H = Heat sink installed Non-Isolated Quarter Brick Mounting Method: Blank = Through-hole package M = Surface-Mount Package Nominal Output Voltage: 0.8, 1, 1.2, 1.5, 1.8, 2, 2.5, 3.3 or 5 Volts Note: Not all model number combinations are available.
