Test Configurations
Note: Measure input reflected-ripple current with a simulated source
inductance (LTEST) of 12 µH. Capacitor CS offsets possible battery
impedance. Measure current as shown above.
Figure 43. Input Reflected Ripple Current Test Setup.
Note: Use a 1.0 µF ceramic capacitor and a 10 µF aluminum or tantalum
capacitor. Scope measurement should be made using a BNC socket.
Position the load between 51 mm and 76 mm (2 in. and 3 in.) from the
module.
Figure 44. Output Ripple and Noise Test Setup.
Note: All measurements are taken at the module terminals. When socketing, place
Kelvin connections at module terminals to avoid measurement errors due to socket
contact resistance.

Design Considerations
Input Source Impedance
The power module should be connected to a low
ac-impedance source. A highly inductive source
impedance can affect the stability of the power module.
For the test configuration in Figure 43, a 100F
electrolytic capacitor (ESR< 0.7 at 100kHz), mounted
close to the power module helps ensure the stability of
the unit. Consult the factory for further application
guidelines.
Output Capacitance
High output current transient rate of change (high di/dt)
loads may require high values of output capacitance to
supply the instantaneous energy requirement to the
load. To minimize the output voltage transient drop
during this transient, low E.S.R. (equivalent series
resistance) capacitors may be required, since a high
E.S.R. will produce a correspondingly higher voltage drop
during the current transient.
Output capacitance and load impedance interact with
the power module’s output voltage regulation control
system and may produce an ’unstable’ output condition
for the required values of capacitance and E.S.R..
Minimum and maximum values of output capacitance
and of the capacitor’s associated E.S.R. may be dictated,
depending on the module’s control system.
The process of determining the acceptable values of
capacitance and E.S.R. is complex and is load-
dependant. GE provides Web-based tools to assist the
power module end-user in appraising and adjusting the
effect of various load conditions and output
capacitances on specific power modules for various load
conditions.
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* 60950-1 Recognized, CSA
C22.2 No. 60950-3-01
Certified, and EN 60950-1 (VDE
0805): 2001-12 Licensed.
These converters have been evaluated to the spacing
requirements for Basic Insulation per the above safety
standards. For Basic Insulation models (“-B” Suffix), 1500
Vdc is applied from Vi to Vo to 100% of outgoing
production.
For end products connected to –48V dc, or –60Vdc
nominal DC MAINS (i.e. central office dc battery plant), no
further fault testing is required.

Safety Considerations (continued)
*Note: -60V dc nominal battery plants are not available
in the U.S. or Canada.
For all input voltages, other than DC MAINS, where the
input voltage is less than 60V dc, if the input meets all of
the requirements for SELV, then:
The output may be considered SELV. Output
voltages will remain within SELV limits even with
internally-generated non-SELV voltages. Single
component failure and fault tests were performed
in the power converters.
One pole of the input and one pole of the
output are to be grounded, or both circuits are to
be kept floating, to maintain the output voltage to
ground voltage within ELV or SELV limits.
For all input sources, other than DC MAINS, where the
input voltage is between 60 and 75V dc (Classified as
TNV-2 in Europe), the following must be meet, if the
converter’s output is to be evaluated for SELV:
The input source is to be provided with reinforced
insulation from any hazardous voltage, including the
ac mains.
One Vi pin and one Vo pin are to be reliably
earthed, or both the input and output pins are to be
kept floating.
Another 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.
The power module has ELV (extra-low voltage) outputs
when all inputs are ELV.
All flammable materials used in the manufacturing of
these modules are rated 94V-0.
The input to these units is to be provided with a
maximum 20A fast-acting (or time-delay) fuse in the
unearthed lead.

Feature Descriptions
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 during
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 46). A logic low is Von/off = 0 V to
I.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 15 V. The maximum
allowable leakage current of the switch at Von/off = 15V
is 50 µA. If not using the remote on/off feature, perform
one of the following to turn the unit on:
For negative logic, short ON/OFF pin to VI(-).
For positive logic: leave ON/OFF pin open.
Figure 46. Remote On/Off Implementation.
Overcurrent Protection
To provide protection in a fault output overload
condition, the module is equipped with internal current-
limiting circuitry and can endure current limit for few
seconds. If overcurrent persists for few seconds, the
module will shut down and remain latch-off. The
overcurrent latch is reset by either cycling the input
power or by toggling the on/off pin for one second. If the
output overload condition still exists when the module
restarts, it will shut down again. This operation will
continue indefinitely until the overcurrent condition is
corrected.
An auto-restart option is also available.
Input Undervoltage Lockout
At input voltages below the input undervoltage lockout
limit, the module operation is disabled. The module will
begin to operate at an input voltage above the
undervoltage lockout turn-on threshold.
Overtemperature Protection
These modules feature an overtemperature protection
circuit to safeguard against thermal damage. The circuit
shuts down and latches off the module when the
maximum device reference temperature is exceeded.
The module can be restarted by cycling the dc input
power for at least one second or by toggling the remote
on/off signal for at least one second.
Over Voltage 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 over
voltage protection threshold, then the module will
shutdown and latch off. The overvoltage latch is reset by
either cycling the input power for one second or by
toggling the on/off signal for one second. The protection
mechanism is such that the unit can continue in this
condition until the fault is cleared.
Remote sense
Remote sense minimizes the effects of distribution losses
by regulating the voltage at the remote-sense
connections. The voltage between the remote-sense
pins and the output terminals must not exceed the
output voltage sense range given in the Feature
Specifications table i.e.:
[Vo(+) – Vo(-)] – [SENSE(+) – SENSE(-)] 10% of V
o,nom
.
The voltage between the Vo(+) and Vo(-) terminals must
not exceed the minimum output overvoltage shut-down
value indicated in the Feature Specifications table. This
limit includes any increase in voltage due to remote-
sense compensation and output voltage set-point
adjustment (trim). See Figure 47. If not using the remote-
sense feature to regulate the output at the point of load,
then connect SENSE(+) to Vo(+) and SENSE(-) to Vo(-) at
the module.
Although the output voltage can be increased by both
the remote sense and by the trim, the maximum
increase for the output voltage is not the sum of both.
The maximum increase is the larger of either the remote
sense or the trim. The amount of power delivered by the
module is defined as the voltage at the output terminals
multiplied by the output current. When using remote
sense and trim: the output voltage 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 maximum output power of the
module remains at or below the maximum rated power.
