Input Fusing
Certain applications and/or safety agencies may require fuses at the inputs of
power conversion components. Fuses should also be used when there is the
possibility of sustained input voltage reversal which is not current-limited. For
greatest safely, we recommend a fast blow fuse installed in the ungrounded
input supply line.
The installer must observe all relevant safety standards and regulations. For
safety agency approvals, install the converter in compliance with the end-user
safety standard, i.e. IEC/EN/UL 60950-1.
Input Under-Voltage Shutdown and Start-Up Threshold
Under normal start-up conditions, converters will not begin to regulate properly
until the ramping-up input voltage exceeds and remains at the Start-Up
Threshold Voltage (see Specifi cations). Once operating, converters will not
turn off until the input voltage drops below the Under-Voltage Shutdown Limit.
Subsequent restart will not occur until the input voltage rises again above the
Start-Up Threshold. This built-in hysteresis prevents any unstable on/off opera-
tion at a single input voltage.
Users should be aware however of input sources near the Under-Voltage
Shutdown whose voltage decays as input current is consumed (such as
capacitor inputs), the converter shuts off and then restarts as the external
capacitor recharges. Such situations could oscillate. To prevent this, make
sure the operating input voltage is well above the UV Shutdown voltage AT ALL
TIMES.
Start-Up Time
Assuming that the output current is set at the rated maximum, the Vin to Vout
Start-Up Time (see Specifi cations) is the time interval between the point when
the ramping input voltage crosses the Start-Up Threshold and the fully loaded
regulated output voltage enters and remains within its specifi ed accuracy band.
Actual measured times will vary with input source impedance, external input
capacitance, input voltage slew rate and fi nal value of the input voltage as it
appears at the converter.
These converters include a soft start circuit to moderate the duty cycle of its
PWM controller at power up, thereby limiting the input inrush current.
The On/Off Remote Control interval from On command to Vout regulated
assumes that the converter already has its input voltage stabilized above the
Start-Up Threshold before the On command. The interval is measured from the
On command until the output enters and remains within its specifi ed accuracy
band. The specifi cation assumes that the output is fully loaded at maximum
rated current. Similar conditions apply to the On to Vout regulated specifi cation
such as external load capacitance and soft start circuitry.
Recommended Input Filtering
The user must assure that the input source has low AC impedance to provide
dynamic stability and that the input supply has little or no inductive content,
including long distributed wiring to a remote power supply. The converter will
operate with no additional external capacitance if these conditions are met.
For best performance, we recommend installing a low-ESR capacitor
immediately adjacent to the converter’s input terminals. The capacitor should
be a ceramic type such as the Murata GRM32 series or a polymer type. Initial
TECHNICAL NOTES
suggested capacitor values are 10 to 22 µF, rated at twice the expected maxi-
mum input voltage. Make sure that the input terminals do not go below the
undervoltage shutdown voltage at all times. More input bulk capacitance may
be added in parallel (either electrolytic or tantalum) if needed.
Recommended Output Filtering
The minimum external output capacitance required for proper operation
is 50uF ceramic type. The maximum external output capacitance is 100uF
ceramic and 470uF POSCAP. Operating outside of these minimum and maxi-
mum limits may affect the performance of the unit.
Input Ripple Current and Output Noise
All models in this converter series are tested and specifi ed for input refl ected
ripple current and output noise using designated external input/output compo-
nents, circuits and layout as shown in the fi gures below. In the fi gure below,
the Cbus and Lbus components simulate a typical DC voltage bus. Please
note that the values of Cin, Lbus and Cbus will vary according to the specifi c
converter model.

Minimum Output Loading Requirements
All models regulate within specifi cation and are stable under no load to full
load conditions. Operation under no load might however slightly increase
output ripple and noise.
Thermal Shutdown
To prevent many over temperature problems and damage, these converters
include thermal shutdown circuitry. If environmental conditions cause the
temperature of the DC/DC’s to rise above the Operating Temperature Range
up to the shutdown temperature, an on-board electronic temperature sensor
will power down the unit. When the temperature decreases below the turn-on
threshold, the converter will automatically restart. There is a small amount of
hysteresis to prevent rapid on/off cycling. The temperature sensor is typically
located adjacent to the switching controller, approximately in the center of the
unit. See the Performance and Functional Specifi cations.
CAUTION: If you operate too close to the thermal limits, the converter may
shut down suddenly without warning. Be sure to thoroughly test your applica-
tion to avoid unplanned thermal shutdown.
Temperature Derating Curves
The graphs in this data sheet illustrate typical operation under a variety of
conditions. The Derating curves show the maximum continuous ambient air
temperature and decreasing maximum output current which is acceptable
under increasing forced airfl ow measured in Linear Feet per Minute (“LFM”).
Note that these are AVERAGE measurements. The converter will accept brief
increases in current or reduced airfl ow as long as the average is not exceeded.
Note that the temperatures are of the ambient airfl ow, not the converter
itself which is obviously running at higher temperature than the outside air.
Also note that very low fl ow rates (below about 25 LFM) are similar to “natural
convection, that is, not using fan-forced airfl ow.
Murata Power Solutions makes Characterization measurements in a closed
cycle wind tunnel with calibrated airfl ow. We use both thermocouples and an
infrared camera system to observe thermal performance.
CAUTION: If you routinely or accidentally exceed these Derating guidelines,
the converter may have an unplanned Over Temperature shut down. Also, these
graphs are all collected at slightly above Sea Level altitude. Be sure to reduce
the derating for higher density altitude.
Output Current Limiting
Current limiting inception is defi ned as the point at which full power falls below
the rated tolerance. See the Performance/Functional Specifi cations. Note par-
ticularly that the output current may briefl y rise above its rated value in normal
operation as long as the average output power is not exceeded. This enhances
reliability and continued operation of your application. If the output current is
too high, the converter will enter the short circuit condition.
Output Short Circuit Condition
When a converter is in current-limit mode, the output voltage will drop as the
output current demand increases. If the output voltage drops too low (approxi-
mately 98% of nominal output voltage for most models), the magnetically
coupled voltage used to develop primary side voltages will also drop, thereby
shutting down the PWM controller. Following a time-out period, the PWM will
restart, causing the output voltage to begin ramping up to its appropriate value.
If the short-circuit condition persists, another shutdown cycle will initiate. This
rapid on/off cycling is called “hiccup mode”. The hiccup cycling reduces the
average output current, thereby preventing excessive internal temperatures
and/or component damage. A short circuit can be tolerated indefi nitely.
The “hiccup” system differs from older latching short circuit systems
because you do not have to power down the converter to make it restart. The
system will automatically restore operation as soon as the short circuit condi-
tion is removed.
