The PKJ 4000E series of high efficiency DC/DC
converters are designed to provide high quality on-board
power solutions in distributed power architectures used
in Internetworking equipment in wireless and wired
communications applications.
The PKJ 4000E series has industry standard half brick
footprint and pin-out and is only 8.5 mm (0.33 in)
high. This makes it extremely well suited for narrow
board pitch applications with board spacing down to
15 mm (0.6 in). The PKJ 4000E series uses patented
synchronous rectification technology and achieves
an efficiency up to 89% at full load. Ericsson's PKJ
4000E series addresses the emerging telecom market
for applications in the multi-service network by
specifying the input voltage range in accordance with
ETSI specifications.
Included as standard features are output over-voltage
protection, input under-voltage protection, over
temperature protection, soft-start, output short circuit
protection, remote sense, remote control, and output
voltage adjust function.
These converters are designed to meet high reliability
requirements and are manufactured in highly
automated manufacturing lines and meet world-class
quality levels. Ericsson Power Modules is an
ISO 9001/14001 certified supplier.

Environmental Characteristics
Safety
The PKJ 4000 E series DC/DC converters
are designed in accordance with safety
standards IEC/EN/UL 60 950, Safety
of Information Technology Equipment. The
PKJ 4000 E series DC/DC converters are
UL 60 950 recognized and certified in
accordance with EN 60 950.
The DC/DC converter should be installed
in the end-use equipment, in accordance
with the requirements of the ultimate
application. The input source must be
isolated by minimum Basic insulation
from the primary circuit in accordance
with IEC/EN/UL 60 950. If the input
voltage to the DC/DC converter is 75 V
dc or less, then the output remains SELV
(Safety Extra Low Voltage) under normal
and abnormal operating conditions.
Single fault testing in the input power
supply circuit should be performed
with the DC/DC converter connected to
demonstrate that the input voltage does
not exceed 75 V dc. If the input power
source circuit is a DC power system,
the source may be treated as a TNV2
circuit and testing has demonstrated
compliance with SELV limits and
isolation requirements equivalent to Basic
insulation in accordance with
IEC/EN/UL 60 950.
It is recommended that a fast blow fuse
with a rating of 10A be used at the input
of each DC/DC converter. The PKJ series
DC/DC converters are approved for a
maximum fuse rating of 15A. If a fault
occurs in the converter that imposes a
short circuit on the input source, this fuse
will provide the following functions:
Isolate the faulty DC/DC converter
from the input power source not to af-
fect the operation of other parts of the
system.
Protect the distribution wiring from
excessive current and power loss thus
preventing hazardous overheating.
The galvanic isolation is verified in an
electric strength test. The test voltage
(VISO) between input and output is 1500
Vdc for 60 seconds. Leakage current is less
than 1uA at nominal input voltage.
The flammability rating for all
construction parts of the DC/DC
converter meets UL 94V-0.

Layout Recommendation
The radiated EMI performance of the DC/DC converter will be
optimised by including a ground plane in the PCB area under
the DC/DC converter. This approach will return switching
noise to ground as directly as possible, with improvements to
both emissions and susceptibility. If one ground trace is used,
it should be connected to the input return. Alternatively, two
ground traces may be used, with the trace under the input side
of the DC/DC converter connected to the input return and the
trace under the output side of the DC/DC converter connected
to the output return. Make sure to use appropriate safety isola-
tion spacing between these two return traces. The use of two
traces as described will provide the capability of routing the
input noise and output noise back to their respective returns.

Operating Information
Input Voltage
The input voltage range 36…75Vdc meets the requirements
of the European Telecom Standard ETS 300 132-2 for normal
input voltage range in –48V and –60V DC systems, -40.5…-
57.0V and –50.0…-72V respectively. At input voltages
exceeding 75V, the power loss will be higher than at normal
input voltage and TPcb must be limited to absolute max
+125°C. The absolute maximum continuous input voltage
is 80Vdc.
Turn-Off Input Voltage
The PKJ 4000E Series DC/DC converters monitor the input
voltage and will turn on and turn off at predetermined levels.
The minimum hysteresis between turn on and turn off input
voltage is 1V where the turn on input voltage is the highest.
Output Voltage Adjust (Vadj)
All PKJ 4000E Series DC/DC converters have an Output Volt-
age adjust pin (Vadj). This pin can be used to adjust the output
voltage above or below Output voltage initial setting. When
increasing the output voltage, the voltage at the output pins
(including any remote sense offset) must be kept below the ov-
ervoltage trip point, to prevent the converter from shut down.
Also note that at increased output voltages the maximum
power rating of the converter remains the same, and the output
current capability will decrease correspondingly. To decrease the
output voltage the resistor should be connected between Vadj
pin and –Sense pin. To increase the voltage the resistor should
be connected between Vadj pin and +Sense pin. The resistor
value of the Output voltage adjust function is according to
information given under the output section.
Remote Control (RC)
The PKJ 4000E Series DC/DC
converters have a remote control
function referenced to the primary side
(- In), with negative and positive logic
options available. The RC function
allows the converter to be turned
on/off by an external device like a
semiconductor or mechanical switch.
The RC pin has an internal pull up resistor to + In. The needed
maximum sink current is 1mA. When the RC pin is left
open, the voltage generated on the RC pin is 3.5-6.0V. The
maximum allowable leakage current of the switch is 50µA.
The standard converter is provided with “negative logic”
remote control and the converter will be off until the RC pin
is connected to the - In. To turn on the converter the voltage
between RC pin and - In should be less than 1V. To turn off
the converter the RC pin should be left open, or connected to a
voltage higher than 4V referenced to - In. In situations where
it is desired to have the converter to power up automatically
without the need for control signals or a switch, the RC pin
can be wired directly to - In.
The second option is “positive logic” remote control, which
can be ordered by adding the suffix “P” to the end of the part
number. The converter will turn on when the input voltage
is applied with the RC pin open. Turn off is achieved by
connecting the RC pin to the - In. To ensure safe turn off the
voltage difference between RC pin and the - In pin shall be less
than 1V. The converter will restart automatically when this
connection is opened.
All PKJ 4000E Series DC/DC converters have remote sense that
can be used to compensate for moderate amounts of resistance
in the distribution system and allow for voltage regulation at
the load or other selected point. The remote sense lines will
carry very little current and do not need a large cross sectional
area. However, the sense lines on the PCB should be located
close to a ground trace or ground plane. In a discrete wiring
situation, the use of twisted pair wires or other technique to
reduce noise susceptibility is highly recommended. The remote
sense circuitry will compensate for up to 10% voltage drop
between the sense voltage and the voltage at the output pins.
The output voltage and the remote sense voltage offset must be
less than the minimum over voltage trip point. If the remote
sense is not needed the –Sense should be connected to –Out and
+Sense should be connected to +Out.

Operating Information
Over Temperature Protection (OTP)
The PKJ 4000E Series DC/DC converters are protected from
thermal overload by an internal over temperature shutdown
circuit. When the PCB temperature (centre of PCB ) exceeds
135 °C the converter will shut down immediately (latching).
The converter can be restarted by cycling the input voltage or
using the remote control function.
Input And Output Impedance
The impedance of both the power source and the load will
interact with the impedance of the DC/DC converter. It is
most important to have a ratio between L and C as low as
possible, i.e. a low characteristic impedance, both at the
input and output, as the converters have a low energy storage
capability. The PKJ 4000E Series DC/DC converters have been
designed to be completely stable without the need for external
capacitors on the input or the output circuits. The performance
in some applications can be enhanced by addition of external
capacitance as described under maximum capacitive load. If
the distribution of the input voltage source to the converter
contains significant inductance, the addition of a 100µF
capacitor across the input of the converter will help insure
stability. This capacitor is not required when powering the
DC/DC converter from a low impedance source with short, low
inductance, input power leads.
Parallel Operation
The PKJ 4000E Series DC/DC converters can be paralleled for
redundancy if external "O"-ring diodes are used in series with
the outputs. It is not recommended to parallel the PKJ 4000E
Series DC/DC converters for increased power without using
external current sharing circuits.
Maximum Capacitive Load
When powering loads with significant dynamic current
requirements, the voltage regulation at the load can be
improved by addition of decoupling capacitance at the load.
The most affective technique is to locate low ESR ceramic
capacitors as close to the load as possible, using several
capacitors to lower the effective ESR. These ceramic capacitors
will handle short duration high-frequency components of
dynamic load changes. In addition, higher values of electrolytic
capacitors should be used to handle the mid-frequency
components. It is equally important to use good design practise
when configuring the DC distribution system.
Low resistance and low inductance PCB (printed circuit board)
layouts and cabling should be used. Remember that when
using remote sensing, all resistance, inductance and capacitance
of the distribution system is within the feedback loop of the
converter. This can affect on the converters compensation and
the resulting stability and dynamic response performance. As
a “rule of thumb”, 100 µF/A of output current can be used
without any additional analysis. For example with a 25A
converter, values of decoupling capacitance up to 2500 µF
can be used without regard to stability. With larger values of
capacitance, the load transient recovery time can exceed the
specified value. As much of the capacitance as possible should
be outside the remote sensing loop and close to the load. The
absolute maximum value of output capacitance is 10 000 µF.
For values larger than this, please contact your local Ericsson
Power Modules representative.
Current Limit Protection
The PKJ 4000E Series DC/DC converters include current
limiting circuitry that allows them to withstand continuous
overloads or short circuit conditions on the output. The output
voltage will decrease towards zero for output currents in excess
of max output current (Iomax).
The converter will resume normal operation after removal of the
overload. The load distribution system should be designed to
carry the maximum output short circuit current specified.
Over Voltage Protection (OVP)
The PKJ 4000E Series DC/DC converters have latching output
overvoltage protection. In the event of an overvoltage condition,
the converter will shut down immediately. The converter can
be restarted by cycling the input voltage or using the remote
control function.

Airflow
General
The PKJ 4000E Series DC/DC converters are designed
to operate in a variety of thermal environments, however
sufficient cooling should be provided to help ensure reliable
operation. Heat is removed by conduction, convection and
radiation to the surrounding environment. Increased airflow
enhances the heat transfer via convection. The available load
current vs. ambient air temperature and airflow at Vin=53 V
for each model is according to the information given under
the output section. The test is done in a wind tunnel with a
cross section of 305x305mm, the DC/DC converter vertically
mounted on a 8 layer PCB with a size of 254x254mm. Each
layer with 35 µm (1oz) copper. Proper cooling can be verified
by measuring the temperature of selected devices. Peak
temperature can occur at position P1 and P2. The temperature
at these positions should not exceed the recommended max
values.
Calculation of ambient temperature
By using the thermal resistance the maximum allowed
ambient temperature can be calculated.
1. The powerloss is calculated by using the formula
((1/η) - 1) × output power = power losses.
η = efficiency of converter. E.g 89% = 0.89
2. Find the value of the thermal resistance for each product in
the diagram by using the airflow speed at the output section
of the converter. Take the thermal resistance x powerloss to
get the temperature increase.
3. Max allowed calculated ambient temperature is: Max
TPCB of DC/DC converter – temperature increase.
B. 10.2W × 5.1°C/W = 52°C
C.125°C - 52°C = max ambient temperature is 73°C
The real temperature will be dependent on several factors,
like PCB size and type, direction of airflow, air turbulence
etc. It is recommended to verify the temperature by testing.

series DC/DC converter family is calculated to be greater than (>)
7.6 million hours at full output power and a PCB temperature
of +110°C using the Ericsson failure rate data system (TILDA/
Preditool). The Ericsson failure rate data system is based on field
failure rates and is continuously updated. The data corresponds
to actual failure rates of components used in Information
Technology and Telecom equipment in temperature controlled
environments (TA= -5...+65°C). The data is considered to have
a confidence level of 90%. For more information please refer to
Design Note 002.
Quality Statement
The PKJ 4000E series DC/DC converters are designed and
manufactured in an industrial environment where quality
systems and methods like ISO 9000, 6σ (sigma), and SPC
are intensively in use to boost the continuous improvements
strategy. Infant mortality or early failures in the products
are screened out and they are subjected to an ATE-based final
test. Conservative design rules, design reviews and product
qualifications, plus the high competence of an engaged work
force, contribute to the high quality of our products.
Warranty
Warranty period and conditions are defined in Ericsson Power
Modules General Terms and Conditions of Sale.

Miscellaneous
The PKJ 4000E Series DC/DC converters are intended for
through hole mounting on a PCB. When wave soldering is
used max temperature on the pins are specified to 215°C for 10
seconds. Maximum preheat rate of 4°C/s is suggested. When
hand soldering is used a thermocouple needs to be mounted on
the DC/DC converter pins to verify that pin temperatures does
not exceed 215°C for longer time than 10 seconds with the used
soldering tools.
No-clean flux is recommended to avoid entrapment of cleaning
fluids in cavities inside of the DC/DC power module. The
residues may affect long time reliability and isolation voltage.
Compatibility with RoHS requirements
The products are compatible with the relevant clauses and
requirements of the RoHS directive 2002/95/EC and have a
maximum concentration value of 0.1% by weight in homogene-
ous materials for lead, mercury, hexavalent chromium, PBB and
PBDE and of 0.01% by weight in homogeneous materials for
cadmium.
Exemptions in the RoHS directive utilized in Ericsson Power
Modules products include:
- Lead in high melting temperature type solder (used to
solder the die in semiconductor packages)
