increase due to remote sense and an output voltage set-point adjustment over the trim function. x the output power of the txs module is defined as the output voltages at the power pins multiplied by the load current. when the output voltage is increased to compensate voltage drops, the output power from the converter is increased as well. the power should not exceed its maximum rating. x if not used, the remote sense pins have to be connected as short as possible to vo (+) and vo (-) respectively. if not connected, the output voltage shows an increased line and load regulation. x the sense wires are loaded with a small signal current. do not place resistors or filters into the sense wires. x the pcb layout of the power tracks to the load should result in a low wiring inductance. otherwise the dynamic performance even with sense wires is degraded. x do not use filter capacitors between sense and power pins. they could possibly influence the stability of the module. power loss and efficiency the measurement of loss and efficiency at very high output current converters is quite difficult. to avoid measurement errors, a kelvin connection directly at the module terminals

an uncontrolled increase of the output voltage in case of catastrophic failures of the converter. the over voltage protection consist of a second control loop, which is independent of the main regulating circuit. the protection is set to 125 % u o set (models zy, za, zb, zc) and 115 % u o set (model zd). the over voltage protection is not switching, but regulating, so that the converter can?t be accidentally turned of by noise or emi. output voltage adjustment over sense or trim can?t trigger the over voltage protection, because the protection level is tracking with u o set . operation in parallel paralleling of two converters is not possible. operation in series txs units can be connected in series. consult the factory for additional information if a serial connection of

output over current protection when the converter output is overloaded or shorted, the module will go into hiccup mode. in the hiccup mode, the brick is switched off completely and restarted after a period of approximately 550 ms. if the overload- or short circuit is still present then, the converter will hiccup until the overload is removed. in order to be capable of starting large capacitive

thermal damage in case of failures of the cooling system. a second function of the over temperature protection, is to prevent long term operation at elevated temperatures due to poor thermal system design. long time thermal overload reduces the reliability of the converters. a ptc measures the surface temperature of the pcb near the main transformers. the temperature protection switches the converter off completely at approximately 120 c. after cooling down by 5 to 10 kelvin, the converter is restarted. thermal time constant txs modules have a large thermal time constant of approximately 7 k/min. a large time constant increases the converter ruggedness. it allows short term operation at overload without triggering the temperature protection. in case of changing loads, the converter operates at a lower average temperature which improves the expected lifetime. finally a large time constant gives additional operating time after a break down of the cooling system. hot spots txs modules have large component and material safety margins. the temperature protection is not set close to destructive limits. laboratory tests with disabled protection at an on board temperature of 170 c (24 h, full load) showed no performance or material degradation after cooling down. survival under such extreme operating conditions is only possible, when a converter has a uniform temperature distribution without any hot spots. hot spots are peak temperatures considerably above the neighbouring components. hot spots can be seen quite often in converters without base plate and are the result of a poor thermal design. converters with hot spots need a large derating or they will suffer a large reduction to the expected life time. opto couplers on txs modules, thermally sensitive components such as the opto-couplers are placed on a much cooler, separate hybrid circuit. opto-couplers see a highly accelerated aging at operating temperatures above 100 c. additionally they are safety critical components, because they are bridging the safety barrier between primary and secondary. safety agencies don?t allow operation of the opto-couplers over the rated temperature, which is in almost every case 100 c. competition single board converters might be specified for 120 c or even 130 c pcb operating temperatures, but can?t be operated at this point because of the on board opto-couplers. safety agencies will insist on a temperature reduction of up to 30 k. figure 41: txs100-zy at 300 lfm, u i = 48 v, i o = 100 a, t a = 27.9 c, t bp = 59.7 c, t pcbmax = 74.1 c, dt = 14.4 k the thermal picture of a txs- module, underlayed with layout data shows clearly that hot spots are successfully avoided. the temperature distribution in the middle section with the synchronous rectifiers is flat. the temperature rise above the base plate is only 14.4 k. the red area is the only warm section on a txs. all other power components are located on the bottom of the board where they are in direct thermal contact with the base plate. a thermally conductive potting material keeps the temperature rise above the base plate to below 2 k. detailed information on the mechanical concept of the converter, the thermal system design rules and measurement results are available on the txs product cd rom (available reports see page 6). m ptc m opto-coupler product specification txs

supports 500 v dc electric strength test voltage. the base plate is normally floating. for safety reasons the base plate may only be connected to the secondary or safety ground. if the system using the converter requires safety agency approval, certain rules should be followed in the design of the system. in particular, all creepage and clearance distance requirements of the appropriate standard should be observed. this document refers to ul 60950, en 60950:2000 and csa 60950-00 only. specific applications may have additional requirements. x the converter has no internal fuse. an external fuse should be provided to protect the system. for ul purpose the fuse needs to be ul-listed. a fuse rating not greater than 10 a is recommended. the user can select a lower rating fuse based upon the inrush transient of the input filter and the maximum input current of the converter (see page 2). both input tracks and the chassis ground track (if applicable) should be capable of conducting a current of 1.5 times the value of the fuse without failure. the fuse should be placed in the non- grounded input line. x the maximum specified input voltage is 100 v dc for 100 ms. exceeding of this voltage limit may destroy the input stage of the converter but it will not damage the insulation 2 . x if an input supply other than selv is used, the components on the primary of the converter may need to be considered as hazardous. the report: ?txs layout considerations? on the txs cd rom provides recommendations for the pcb layout beneath the converter. 1 according to ul 60950, en 60950:2000, csa 60950-00 2 the creepage and clearance distance and the insulation thickness were dimensioned for 200 v dc. the converters have been approved for basic insulation. it is in the responsibility of the customer to use the converter in applications, where supplementary insulation is required. definitions the following section should help to classify the supplying circuit of the converter. for the precise identification of the voltage types in a system, the relevant safety standard should be used. primary circuit = circuit connected to the ac mains which makes it hazardous per definition. secondary circuit = circuit which is isolated from a primary circuit. a battery without connection to a primary circuit is considered to be a secondary circuit. selv, elv and tnv are secondary

(ul 130 c print material is used: power-one designs use normally 10 k safety margin). x maximum opto-coupler temperature d 100 c. (device limits, otherwise accelerated aging) if the base plate temperature stays below 100 c, both of the above limits are kept under all operating and cooling conditions. the maximum base plate temperature is limited by the temperature protection, but should be verified after system integration. t bp can be measured on the temperature measuring point on the base plate. see mechanical drawing for location. thermal resistance to operate the converters below the maximum base plate temperature, sufficient cooling should be provided. the modules can be cooled by conduction, convection and radiation to the surrounding environment. the path for the heat transport can be described with a thermal resistance . a low thermal resistance allows a lot of heat or loss to flow from a hot component x to the surrounding y. rth xy = ( t x - t y ) / p loss [k/w] the thermal resistance between x and y is defined as temperature difference between the two parts, divided through the amount of loss flowing from the hot to the cool part (see report ?thermal performace of txs? on the txs product cd rom for further information). txs provide two main ways for heat transport: heat can be transported to the motherboard and to ambient. base plate to motherboard rth bp-pcb txs converters provide an efficient way to transport heat to the motherboard over the pins and the case. since the efficiency of this method varies from design to design, it can?t be predicted. (see report: ?txs layout considerations?) base plate to ambient rth bp-a txs modules are designed for forced convection cooling. to estimate the thermal resistance at different airflows the following graph can be used: thermal resistance v's air-flow rate 0.00 0.50 1.00 1.50 2.00 2.50 3.00 50 100 150 200 250 300 350 400 450 500 550 air-flow rate (lfm) rth (k/w) without heat sink 6.1mm (0.24'') heat sink 13mm (0.51'') heat sink (cut) 24.1mm (0.95'') heat sink 11.4mm (0.45'') heat sink figure 53: thermal resistances at laminar airflow txs modules are designed to work without additional heat sink. but it is possible to attach an external heat sink to the base plate. heat sinks can efficiently help to increase the thermal safety margin or to increase the available power if the available airflow in a system is not sufficient. calculation of the required airflow the thermal resistance rth bp-a allows determining the required airflow or heat sink, for a given ambient temperature and operating condition. 1 the operating conditions define the loss of the converter: loss figures for different output voltages, input voltage ranges, and output currents can be found on page 8. they should be corrected with the factors of table 7 for the targeted base plate temperature. 2 the required thermal resistance for a given environment ( t bp , t a ) and loss can be calculated using the formula from above: rth bp-a = ( t bp - t a ) / p loss . to remember: the base plate temperature should not be product specification txs series: 75?120 a dc-dc converters 36 to 75 v dc input, 1.2, 1.5, 1.8, 2.0 and 2.5 v output, 90 w to 250 w rev. feb 18, 2003 24 of 27 www.power-one.com selected above 100 c. it can be convenient to use a base plate temperature below 100 c in order to optimise the expected lifetime. 3 the value of rth bp-a allows to determine the required airflow or heat sink using figure 53. derating a ?derating? is the reduction of the available output power at high ambient temperature. a derating keeps the maximum temperatures of the unit below safety critical limits. to decide how much the converter can be loaded, some system parameters need to be known: x maximum ambient temperature and minimum airflow at the converter x height / space restrictions for an additional heat sink x layout situation (maximum current density, neighboring heat sources, shadowing effects, cooling to the board...) x supply voltage and maximum output current (average and peak) x least favorable input voltage x reliability target txs derating curves were defined for converters without heat sinks operating at constant base plate temperatures of 100 c ! derating curves the derating curves allow a first rough estimation if a design work. more detailed curves and explanations can be found in the report ?thermal performance of txs units? on the product cd rom. a second report ? next generation txs modules? shows preliminary data of optimised txs modules. the derating data in the figures 54 and 55 shows two bars for each airflow value. the first bar can be used for 48 v battery types, where the input voltage stays within 36 v to 60 v. the second bar should be used for 60 v battery types, where the continuous input voltage can be as high as 75 v. at 75 v, txs converters have increased loss compared to the 36 v to 60 v input range. thus the maximum allowed ambient temperature for the full input range is reduced. 20 30 40 50 60 70 80 100 150 200 300 400 500 100 150 200 300 400 500 100 150 200 300 400 500 100 150 200 300 400 500 airflow [lfm] ta [c] 36..60v 36..75v figure 54: maximum ambient temperature for different txs models at different airflows at 100 a output current and t bp =100 c. 30 40 50 60 70 80 90 100 150 200 300 400 500 100 150 200 300 400 500 100 150 200 300 400 500 100 150 200 300 400 500 airflow [lfm] ta [c] 36..60v 36..75v figure 55: maximum ambient temperature for different txs models at different airflows at 80 a output current and t bp = 100 c how to calculate the derating in situations where a converter should operate at a lower base plate temperature or when additional heat sinks can be used?

models for all the others. mil hdbk 217f notice 2 there is an ongoing discussion about the best suited method for re liability prediction. the mil-hdbk is the most elaborate, well documented and most widely used tool for predicting the component reliability. mil models are better suited to describing the component loading in high density converters, than other models. belcore models for example were developed for predicting the reliability of standard telecom equipment, working at much lower operating temperatures. the problem with the mil hdbk is, that the models are often based on old data, neglecting component improvements achieved in the market. this leads to pessimistic results. bad prediction results, related design re strictions and resulting higher product costs were the main reasons why the us government recently cancelled the use of the mil-hdbk 217 in army specifications. for power supplies however there is no real alternative for predicting reliability in sight. because it is easy to use and has models for all components included, the mil-hdbk-217 is still the best method to get a quantitative measure of the reliability. physics of failure (pof) because of the limitations of reliability prediction, pof is used as a second tool for a qualitative measure of the reliability. the physics of failure approach defines a set of specific screening and stress tests to detect possible failure mechanism, to analyse the stress response of the modules and verify their safety margins. the txs cd rom contains the results from a ?design maturity? and a ?design integrity? test as a part of the pof analysis. background information about reliability prediction and detection methods, the assumptions for the calculation with the mil hdbk and detailed results can be found in the ?reliability report for txs dc- dc converters? on the txs product cd rom. a reliability prediction gives not an exact value for an individual module, but a statistical estimate for an equipment population in the field. calculations and graphs only give a rough guide to the required cooling. the specific card and rack design can vary a lot, which makes it almost impossible to predict the exact tem p eratures of a brick. it is good practice to verify the thermal performance in worst case operating conditions with all obstructions in place at highest ambient temperature before the card design is finished. product specification txs series: 75?120 a dc-dc converters 36 to 75 v dc input, 1.2, 1.5, 1.8, 2.0 and 2.5 v output, 90 w to 250 w rev. feb 18, 2003 26 of 27 www.power-one.com layout considerations the layout for a txs module has to be done carefully to minimise emi effects and to avoid current crowding on the motherboard. the application note ?txs layout considerations?
