Analog controls: Details of analog controls are provided in
this data sheet under Signal Definitions.
Common ground: All signals and outputs are referenced to
Output return. These include ‘Vstb return’ and ‘Signal return’.
Control Signals
Voltage programming (V
can vary the output voltage from 43.2V
equation of this signal is:
= 43.2 + 3.3 (V
V
OUT
prog
If Vprog is ≥ 4V, or left open the programming signal is ignored
and the unit output is set at the setpoint of 48V
Load share (Ishare):Single wire analog signal between power
supplies connected in parallel. The Ishare pins should be tied
together for power supplies. No resistors or capacitors should
get connected to this pin.
Remote ON/OFF:Controls the presence of the main 48V
output voltage. This is an open collector, TTL level control
signal. Logic 1 turns ON the 48V
OFF the 48V
output.
DC
A turn OFF command either through this signal or firmware
commanded would turn OFF the 48V output.
Enable:This is a short signal pin that controls the presence of
the 48V
main output. This pin should be connected to
DC
‘output return’ on the system side of the output connector. The
purpose of this pin is to ensure that the output turns ON after
engagement of the power blades and turns OFF prior to
disengagement of the power blades.
Write protect (WP):This signal protects the contents of the
external EEPROM. When left open the EEPROM is write
protected. A LO permits writing to the EEPROM. This signal is
pulled HI internally by the power supply.
Status signals
Output current monitor (Imon): A voltage level proportional to
the output current is present on this pin.
AC OK:TTL compatible open collector. A (HI) on this signal
indicates that the input voltage is present within limits.
DC OK: TTL compatible, open collector. A (HI) on this signal
indicates that the output voltage is present.
Over temp warning: TTL compatible, open collector. A (HI) on
this signal indicates that temperatures are normal.
If an over temperature should occur, this signal changes to LO
for 10 seconds prior to shutdown. Unit restarts if internal
temperatures recover to normal operational levels.
Fault: TTL compatible, open collector. A (HI) on this signal
indicates that no faults are present. This signal activates for
OTP, OVP, OCP, or AC fault.
PS Present:Connected to ‘output return’. Its intent is to
indicate to the system that a power supply is present. This
signal may need to be pulled HI externally through a resistor.

Interrupt: A TTL compatible status signal. Needs to be pulled

Serial Bus Communications – CAR1248FPxC
The I²C interface facilitates the monitoring and control of
various operating parameters within the unit and transmits
these on demand over an industry standard I²C Serial bus.
All signals are referenced to ‘Signal Return’.
Device addressing:The microcontroller (MCU) and the
Address lines (A2, A1, A0): Up to eight (8) modules to be
addressed on a single I²C bus. The pins are pulled HI internal
to the power supply. For a logic LO connect to ‘Output Return’
Serial Clock (SCL):Host generated, this signal needs to be
pulled up externally ensuring that rise and fall time timing and
the maximum sink current is in compliance to the I²C
specification.
Serial Data (SDA): This is a bi-directional line that needs to be
pulled up externally ensuring that rise and fall time timing and
the maximum sink current is in compliance to the I²C
specification.

ON/OFF [03]: A logic ‘1’ turns OFF the 48V output of the
power supply.
Ilim [04]: This feature lowers the current limit from the default
values of 02A8h (680), corresponding to 28.6A at high line and
0265h (613) corresponding to 25.8A at low line.
The delivered output current cannot exceed the maximum
power capacity of the unit. Thus, at high line the power supply
is limited to 1200W, thus, at 28.6A the output voltage is limited
to 41.96V
,
DC
Example: At high line, reduce the current limit to 20A.
Compute the data to be sent to the controller; 20 / 0.042 =
476. The hex equivalent of this decimal data is 01DCh. The
data should be sent across the bus as LSB [DC] followed by
MSB [01].
Vset [05]: Changes the output voltage via i2c, if the Vprog
hardware signal is > 4V
, this command is ignored.

The output voltage setting must be between 42.8 – 56V

sent to the controller; 54 / 0.094 = 574. The hex equivalent of
this decimal data is 023Eh. The data should be sent across the

Vprog [06]; Reads back the hardware configured analog
voltage program value via i2c.
The value can range from 0.364V to 3.27V.
Example: set the output to 44V
determine that Vprog = 0.6. The 10bit D/A is set for the range
of 0 – 5V

0.00488V. So the corresponding value to enter is 0.6/0.00488 =
123 decimal. This corresponds to 7Bh. The data should be sent
across the bus as LSB [7B] followed by MSB [00].
OT trip[07] and OT recover[08]; Configures the OT shutdown
and recovery levels. The default values are;
OT trip: 120C corresponds to 1.03/0.00488 = D3h
OT recover: 110C that corresponds to 1.26/0.0049 = 0102h
Example: Change the recovery temperature to 100C. In the
look up table above the corresponding level is 1.54. Divide by
the conversion ration, 1.54/0.0049 = 315 dec. Converting to its
hex equivalent yields 013B hex. The data should be sent
across the bus as LSB [3B] followed by MSB [01].
DC_OK_HI[09] and DC_OK_LO[0A]: Changes the DC_OK signal
comparator level. The default values are;
DC_OK_HI: 02CDh, corresponding to 67.5V
DC_OK_LO: 0133h, corresponding to 28.9V
Example: Change the upper level of comparison to 55V.
Determine the corresponding register value setting; 55/0.0941
= 584dec. This is equivalent to 0248h. The data should be
sent across the bus as LSB [48] followed by MSB [02].
STATUS [0B]: All read backs are two bytes and so read back
two bytes but ignore the MSB.
Firmware [0C]: Reads back the latest firmware revision.
MCUeeprom [0D – 7C]: 125 bytes of information may be
stored in the EEPROM section of the micro controller starting
from register location 0Dh. Each byte of data needs to be
stored into its specific register location, one byte at a time.
External EEPROM
A separate EEPROM, with its own i2c address and with
write_protect capability, provides 128 bytes of memory. This is
a standard i2c compliant generic EEPROM with a single byte
for its memory location. Standard i2c command structure
applies.

Three LEDs are located on the front faceplate. The AC_OK LED
provides visual indication of the INPUT signal function. When
the LED is ON GREEN the power supply input is within normal
design limits.
When the DC_OK LED is GREEN the DC output is present.
When the FAULT_LED is RED then a fault condition exists and
the power supply may not provide output power. The table
