No protective fuse is preinstalled on the input side. To protect the unit, install a slow-blow
type fuse shown in Table 2.2 in the input circuit.
Table 2.2
Recommended
fuse
Connect a film capacitor of 2 uF or higher as input capacitor C11.
Use a capacitor with a rated voltage of AC250V which complies with the safety standards.
If C11 is not connected, the power supply or external components could be damaged.
When selecting a capacitor, check the maximum allowable ripple current.
Ripple current includes low frequency component (input frequency) and high frequency
component (100kHz).
Ripple current values flowing into C11 as listed in Table 2.1 are shown in Fig.2.2.
The ripple current changes with PCB patterns, external parts, ambient temperature, etc.
Check the actual ripple current value flowing through C11.

2.4 Y Capacitors and noise filters: CY, CX, L1
The TUNS300/500/700 series has no internal noise filter.
Connect external noise filters and capacitors (CY) to reduce conduction noise and stabilize
the operation of the power supply.
Noise filters should be properly designed when the unit must conform to the EMI/EMS
standards or when surge voltage may be applied to the unit.
Install the primary Y capacitor (CY1) as close as possible to the input pins (within 50 mm
from the pins).
A capacitance of 470 pF or more is required.
When the total capacitance of CYs exceeds 8,800 pF, input-output withstanding voltage
may be dropped. In this case, either reduce the capacitance of Y capacitors or install a
grounding capacitor between output and FG.
Use capacitors with a rated voltage of AC250V which comply with the safety standards
as CY.
2.5 Output capacitors: Co, C40
Install an external capacitor, Co, between +VOUT and -VOUT pins for stable operation
of the power supply. Recommended capacitance of Co is shown in Table 2.3.
Use low impedance electrolytic capacitors with excellent temperature characteristics.
When Using at ambient temperatures below 0 ºC, the output ripple voltage increases due
to the characteristics of equivalent series resistor (ESR). In this case, connect three
capacitors, Co, of recommended capacitance in parallel connection.
Specifications, output ripple and ripple noise as evaluation data values are measured
according to Fig.2.3.

2.6 Smoothing capacitor for boost voltage: Cbc
In order to smooth boost voltage, connect Cbc between +BC and -BC.
Recommended capacitance of Cbc is shown in Table 2.4.
Install a capacitor Cbc with a rated voltage of DC420 V or higher within the allowable
capacitance.
When operated below 0ºC, operation may become unstable as boost ripple voltage
increases due to ESR characteristics. Choose a capacitor which has higher capacitance
than recommended.
Select a capacitor so that the ripple voltage of the boost voltage is 30 Vp-p or below.
If the ripple voltage of the boost voltage increases, the ripple current rating of the
smoothing capacitor may be exceeded. Check the maximum allowable ripple current of
the capacitor.
The ripple current changes with PCB patterns, external parts, ambient temperature, etc.
Check the actual ripple current value flowing through Cbc.
Table 2.4
Recommended
capacitance
Cbc
Refer to item 6 and 7 for selection method of Cbc.
Capacitor for boost voltage :C20,C30
Install film capacitors with a rating of 1uF/DC450V or higher as C20 and C30.
If C20 and C30 are not connected, the power supply or external components could be
damaged.
The ripple current flows into these capacitors. Check the maximum allowable ripple
current of the capacitor while selecting.
The frequency of the ripple current is 100 kHz to 200 kHz.
Ripple current values flowing into C20 and C30 as listed in Table 2.1 are shown in
Fig.2.4 and Fig.2.5.
The ripple current changes with PCB patterns, external parts, ambient temperature, etc.
Check the actual ripple current values flowing through C20 and C30.

2.8 Inrush current limiting resistor: TFR1
The TUNS300/500/700 must connect TFR1.
If TFR1 is not connected, the power supply will not operate.
Connect TFR1 between R and +BC.
Recommended resistance of TFR1 is shown in Table 2.5.
The surge capacity is required for TFR1.
Wirewound resistor with thermal cut-offs type is required.
Therefore, we don’t recommend connecting a large resistance as TFR1.
The inrush current changes by PCB pattern, parts characteristic etc.
Check the actual inrush current value flowing through the AC line.

interphase.
Please select a resistor so that the input interphase voltage decreases in 42.4V or less
at 1 second after turn off the input.

of input interphase capacitors.
And the data of Fig.2.6 is the values that assumed the worst condition.

3.1 Output current derating
The TUNS300/500/700 series should be conduction-cooled.
Fig.3.1, Fig.3.2 and Fig.3.3 show the derating curve in relation to the temperature of
the aluminum base plate.
Note that operation within the shaded area will cause a significant level of ripple and
ripple noise.
Please measure the temperature of the aluminum base plate at the center.
Please measure the temperature on the aluminum base plate edge side when you cannot
measure the temperature of the center part of the aluminum base plate.
In this case, please take 5deg temperature margin from the derating characteristics
shown in Fig.3.1, Fig.3.2 and Fig.3.3.
Attention should be paid to thermal fatigue life due to temperature fluctuations by
self-heating. Make the range of temperature fluctuations as narrow as possible if
temperature often fluctuates.
