DESIGN CONSIDERATIONS
Input Source Impedance
The impedance of the input source connecting to the
DC/DC power modules will interact with the modules
and affect the stability. A low ac-impedance input source
is recommended. If the source inductance is more than
a few μH, we advise adding a 10 to 100 μF electrolytic
capacitor (ESR < 0.7 Ω at 100 kHz) mounted close to
the input of the module to improve the stability.
Layout and EMC Considerations
Delta’s DC/DC power modules are designed to operate
in a wide variety of systems and applications. For design
assistance with EMC compliance and related PWB
layout issues, please contact Delta’s technical support
team. An external input filter module is available for
easier EMC compliance design. Application notes to
assist designers in addressing these issues are pending
release.
Safety Considerations
The power module must be installed in compliance with
the spacing and separation requirements of the
end-user’s safety agency standard, i.e., UL60950,
CAN/CSA-C22.2 No. 60950-00 and EN60950:2000 and
IEC60950-1999, if the system in which the power
module is to be used must meet safety agency
requirements.
When the input source is 60 Vdc or below, the power
module meets SELV (safety extra-low voltage)
requirements. If the input source is a hazardous voltage
which is greater than 60 Vdc and less than or equal to 75
Vdc, for the module’s output to meet SELV requirements,
all of the following must be met:
The input source must be insulate from any
hazardous voltage, including the ac mains, with
reinforced insulation.
One Vi pin and one Vo pin are grounder, or all the
input and output pins are kept floating.
The input terminals of the module are not operator
accessible.
If the metal baseplate is grounded the output must
be also grounded.
A SELV reliability test is conducted on the system
where the module is used to ensure that under a
single fault, hazardous voltage does not appear at
the module’s output.
DS_Q48DC12003_03112008
Do not ground one of the input pins without grounding
one of the output pins. This connection may allow a
non-SELV voltage to appear between the output pin and
ground.
The power module has extra-low voltage (ELV) outputs
when all inputs are ELV.
This power module is not internally fused. To achieve
optimum safety and system protection, an input line fuse
is highly recommended. The safety agencies require a
normal-blow fuse with 7A maximum rating to be installed
in the ungrounded lead. A lower rated fuse can be used
based on the maximum inrush transient energy and
maximum input current.
Soldering and Cleaning Considerations
Post solder cleaning is usually the final board assembly
process before the board or system undergoes electrical
testing. Inadequate cleaning and/or drying may lower the
reliability of a power module and severely affect the
finished circuit board assembly test. Adequate cleaning
and/or drying is especially important for un-encapsulated
and/or open frame type power modules. For assistance
on appropriate soldering and cleaning procedures,
please contact Delta’s technical support team.

FEATURES DESCRIPTIONS
Over-Current Protection
The modules include an internal output over-current
protection circuit, which will endure current limiting for
an unlimited duration during output overload. If the
output current exceeds the OCP set point, the modules
will automatically shut down (hiccup mode).
The modules will try to restart after shutdown. If the
overload condition still exists, the module will shut down
again. This restart trial will continue until the overload
condition is corrected.
Over-Voltage Protection
The modules include an internal output over-voltage
protection circuit, which monitors the voltage on the
output terminals. If this voltage exceeds the over-voltage
set point, the module will shut down and latch off. The
over-voltage latch is reset by either cycling the input
power or by toggling the on/off signal for one second.
Over-Temperature Protection
The over-temperature protection consists of circuitry
that provides protection from thermal damage. If the
temperature exceeds the over-temperature threshold
the module will shut down.
The module will try to restart after shutdown. If the
over-temperature condition still exists during restart, the
module will shut down again. This restart trial will
continue until the temperature is within specification.
Remote On/Off
The remote on/off feature on the module can be either
negative or positive logic. Negative logic turns the
module on during a logic low and off during a logic high.
Positive logic turns the modules on during a logic high
and off during a logic low.
Remote on/off can be controlled by an external switch
between the on/off terminal and the Vi(-) terminal. The
switch can be an open collector or open drain.
For negative logic if the remote on/off feature is not
used, please short the on/off pin to Vi(-). For positive
logic if the remote on/off feature is not used, please
leave the on/off pin to floating.

Output Voltage Adjustment (TRIM)
To increase or decrease the output voltage set point,
the modules may be connected with an external

When using trim, the output voltage of the module is usually
increased, which increases the power output of the module
with the same output current.
Care should be taken to ensure that the maximum output

THERMAL CONSIDERATIONS
A
Y
Thermal management is an important part of the system
design. To ensure proper, reliable operation, sufficient
cooling of the power module is needed over the entire
temperature range of the module. Convection cooling is
usually the dominant mode of heat transfer.
Hence, the choice of equipment to characterize the thermal
performance of the power module is a wind tunnel.
Thermal Testing Setup
Delta’s DC/DC power modules are characterized in heated
vertical wind tunnels that simulate the thermal
environments encountered in most electronics equipment.
This type of equipment commonly uses vertically mounted
circuit cards in cabinet racks in which the power modules
are mounted.
The following figure shows the wind tunnel characterization
setup. The power module is mounted on a test PWB and is
vertically positioned within the wind tunnel. The space
between the neighboring PWB and the top of the power
module is constantly kept at 6.35mm (0.25’’).
Thermal Derating
Heat can be removed by increasing airflow over the
module.To enhance system reliability, the power module
should always be operated below the maximum operating
temperature. If the temperature exceeds the maximum
module temperature, reliability of the unit may be affected.
