The Interpoint™ MSA Series™ and MGA Series™ of dc-dc
converters provide up to 5 watts of output power over the full
military temperature range with up to 76% efficiency. Thick-film
hybrid techniques provide military/aerospace reliability levels and
optimum miniaturization.
The converters are offered with standard screening, “ES”
screening, or fully compliant to “883” MIL-PRF-38534 Class H
screening. Standard microcircuit drawings (SMD) are available.
See “Table 12: Element Evaluation” on page 14 and “Table 13:
Environmental Screening” on page 15 for screening options
and descriptions.
The converters are switching regulators that use a flyback
converter design with a constant switching frequency of 550 kHz
typical. They are regulated, isolated units using a pulse width
modulated topology and are built as high reliability thick-film
hybrids. Isolation between input and output circuits is provided
with a transformer in the forward power path and an optical
link in the feedback control loop. Excellent input line transient
response and audio rejection is achieved by an advanced feed-
forward compensation technique. Negative output regulation is
maintained by tightly coupled magnetics. Up to 4 watts, 80% of
the total output power, is available from either output, provided
that the opposite output is simultaneously carrying 20% of the
total power in order to maintain the specified regulation on the
negative output. A predictable current limit is accomplished by
direct monitoring of the output load current, which results in a
constant current output. Internal input and output filters eliminate
the need for external capacitors for stable operation. Output filter
examples in “Figure 3: Low Noise Output Filter MSA and MGA
Single Output Models” on page 3 and “Figure 4: Low Noise
Output Filter MSA and MGA Dual Output Models” on page 3
provide suggested solutions for systems where very low output
ripple is required.

The MSA converters are designed to provide full power operation
over a full 16 to 40 VDC voltage range. Operation below 16 volts,
including MIL-STD-704E emergency power conditions is possible
with derated power. Low-line drop out graphs, “Figure 17” on
page 10 and “Figure 23” on page 11, graphs provide more
information.
The feed-forward compensation system rovides excellent
p
dynamic response and noise rejection. Audio rejection is typically
50 dB. The minimum to maximum step line transient response is
typically less than 1%.

unCtion
The inhibit feature can be used to disable internal switching and
inhibit the unit’s output. Inhibiting in this manner results in low
standby current and no generation of switching noise.
The converter is inhibited when the inhibit pin is pulled below
0.8 V and enabled when its inhibit pin is left floating. An external
inhibit interface should be capable of pulling the converter’s
inhibit pin below 0.8 V while sinking the maximum inhibit current
and also allowing the inhibit pin to float high to enable the
converter. A voltage should not be applied to the inhibit pin. The
open circuit output voltage associated with the inhibit pin is 9 to
11 V. In the inhibit mode, a maximum of 4 mA must be sunk from
the inhibit pin. See “Figure 2: Inhibit Interface MSA and MGA” on
page 3.

MSA - Down-leaded package
The MSA Series converters are packaged in hermetically sealed,
projection-welded metal cases which provide EMI/RFI shielding.
The small size, 1.075 x 1.075 x 0.270 inches (27.31 x 27.31 x
6.86 mm), saves space and weight in critical applications. See
“Figure 26: MSA Case Dimensions” on page 12.
MGA - Surface mount package
The surface mount MGA dc-dc converters can be mounted with
pick-and-place equipment or manually. See “Figure 28: MGA
Gull-Wing Solder Pad Layout” on page 13 for more information.
Internal components are soldered with SN96 (melting
temperature 221°C) to prevent damage during reflow. Maximum
reflow temperature for surface mounting the MGA converter is
220°C for a maximum of 30 seconds. SN60, 62, or 63 are the
recommended types of solder. Hand soldering should not exceed
300°C for 10 seconds per pin.
The hermetically sealed metal cases are available in two different
lead configurations. See “Figure 27: MGA Case Dimensions” on
page 13 and “Figure 28: MGA Gull-Wing Solder Pad Layout”
on page 13.

Undervoltage lockout helps keep system current levels low during
initialization or re-start operations. They can withstand short term
transients of up to 50 volts without damage. A low voltage lockout
feature keeps the converter shutdown below approximately 13
VDC to ensure smooth initialization.
