The Gaïa Converter limitor LGDS-50 Series
designates an active power adaptor module
designed to protect electronical systems against
fast transient and high spike levels that can occur
from an input bus line with no voltage
stabilization devices.
The LGDS-50 delivers an adapted output
voltage compliant with Gaïa Converter DC/DC
range of modules. This line of module is
optimized to provide high efficiency up to 98%
over the whole power range between 4W and
50W power.
The module includes also an EMI filter to provide
compliance with EN55022 Class A together with
GAIA Converter DC/DC modules.
The module is manufactured in a fully automated
process to guarranty high quality. Each module
is tested with a Gaïa Converter automated test

equipment.
The LGDS-50 features 2 modes of operations as
follow :
Normal operation :
Normal operation occurs when input bus line
is in steady state permanent range. The LGDS-
50 is then operating in steady transparency
state providing an output with a typical 1,5V
drop-out voltage.
Transient and spikes operation
The LGDS-50 can sustain both :
transient during 1s and 20 ms according
to RIA12 or EN50155 requirements,
high spike levels up to 1.8kV with 5 Ohms
impedance and 8,4kV with 100 Ohms
impedance to meet international input bus
standards of EN50155, RIA12 or IEC 571.

3-1 LGDS-50 Modes of Operation
The LGDS-50 series features 3 modes of operations
detailed hereafter and illustrated by the 2 figures which
depict the transfer fuctions for both models
LGDS-50-J-K and LGDS-50-Q-K :
Power fail operation :
An undervoltage lock-out stops operation for input
voltage below the low line operation threshold
(typically 10Vdc).
3- Modes of Operation
Normal operation :
During normal operation the module is operating in
steady transparency state.
Transient and spike operation :
The LGDS-50 series can sustain input transient and
spike describe in section 3 by a clamping input
system.

9- Application Notes
9-1 Reverse Polarity Compatibility
The LGDS-50 integrates a reverse polarity protection connected directly on Vin (pin 1).
9-2 On/Off Function
The control pin 2 (On/Off) can be used for applications requiring On/Off
operations. By using an open collector command with a transistor Q
referrenced to the terminal Gin :
• A Level 1 on command disables the converter,
• A Level 0 an command or no connection / high impedance enables
the converter.
In off mode, the current consumption stays below 10mA.
9-3 Typical Schematic
The LGDS-50 Series are suitable to be used with several
DC/DC GAIA converter modules in a parallel configuration
as follow.
• The LGDS-50-J-K works in conjunction with GAÏA
Converter H input (9-36V) series or J input (16-40V)
series.
• The LGDS-50-Q-K works in conjunction with GAÏA
Converter Q input (36-140V) series.
