DESCRIPTION
These miniature point-of-load (POL) switching
DC/DC converters are ideal regulation and supply
elements for distributed power and intermedi-
ate bus architectures. Fully compatible with
the Distributed-power Open Standards Alliance
specification (www.dosapower.com), LSN2’s can
power CPU’s, programmable logic and mixed-
voltage systems with little heat and low noise. A
typical application uses a master isolated 12 or
5Vdc supply and individual LSN2 converters for
local 1.8 and 3.3Vdc supplies. All system isolation
resides in the central supply, leaving lower cost
POL regulation at the load. The LSN2’s can deliver
very high power (to 52 Watts) in a tiny area with-
out heat sinking or external components. They
feature quick transient response (to 25µsec) and
very fast current slew rates (to 20A/µsec).

All models are tested and specified with external 1 || 10µF ceramic/tantalum output capacitors
and a 22µF external input capacitor. All capacitors are low ESR types. These capacitors are
necessary to accommodate our test equipment and may not be required to achieve specified
performance in your applications. All models are stable and regulate within spec under no-load
conditions.
General conditions for Specifications are +25°C, V
IN
= nominal, V

= nominal, full load. “Nomi-
nal” output voltage is +5V for D12 models and +3.3V for W3 models.

Note that Maximum Power Derating curves indicate an average current at nominal input voltage.
At higher temperatures and/or lower airflow, the DC/DC converter will tolerate brief full current
outputs if the total RMS current over time does not exceed the derating curve.

The On/Off Control may be driven with external logic or by applying appropriate external voltages
which are referenced to –Input Common. The On/Off Control Input should use either an open
collector/open drain transistor or logic gate which does not exceed +V
IN
. A 68KW external pullup
resistor to +V
IN
will cause the “ON” state for negative logic models.
Short circuit shutdown begins when the output voltage under increasing load degrades approxi-
mately 2% from the selected setting.
If Sense is connected remotely at the load, up to 0.5 Volts difference is allowed between the
Sense and +V
OUT
pins to compensate for ohmic voltage drop in the power lines. A larger voltage
drop may cause the converter to exceed maximum power dissipation.
Output noise may be further reduced by adding an external filter. See I/O Filtering and Noise
Reduction.

All models are fully operational and meet published specifications, including “cold start” at

Regulation specifications describe the deviation as the line input voltage or output load current is
varied from a nominal midpoint value to either extreme.

Other input or output voltage ranges are available under scheduled quantity special order.
(12)
Maximum PC board temperature is measured with the sensor in the center.
(13)
Do not exceed maximum power specifications when adjusting the output trim.
(14)
When Sequencing is not used, the Power Good output is TRUE at any time the output is within
approximately ±10% of the voltage set point. Power Good basically indicates if the converter is
in regulation. Power Good detects Over Temperature if the PWM has shut down due to OT. Power
Good does not directly detect Over Current.
If Sequencing is in progress, Power Good will falsely indicate TRUE (valid) before the output
reaches its setpoint. Ignore Power Good if Sequencing is in transition.
(15)
The maximum output capacitive loads depend on the the Equivalent Series Resistance (ESR) of
the external output capacitor.
(16)
Do not use Pre-bias startup and sequencing together. See Technical Notes below.
(17)
After short circuit shutdown, if the load is partially removed such that the load still exceeds the
overcurrent (OC) detection, the converter will remain in hiccup restart mode.
(18)
For best noise performance, leave the Track/Sequence pin OPEN when not used.

TECHNICAL NOTES
I/O Filtering and Noise Reduction
All models in the LSN2 Series are tested and specified with external
1 || 10µF ceramic/tantalum output capacitors and a 22µF tantalum input
capacitor. These capacitors are necessary to accommodate our test equip-
ment and may not be required to achieve desired performance in your appli-
cation. The LSN2's are designed with high-quality, high-performance internal
I/O caps, and will operate within spec in most applications with no additional
external components.
In particular, the LSN2's input capacitors are specified for low ESR and are
fully rated to handle the units' input ripple currents. Similarly, the internal
output capacitors are specified for low ESR and full-range frequency response.
In critical applications, input/output ripple/noise may be further reduced using
filtering techniques, the simplest being the installation of external I/O caps.
External input capacitors serve primarily as energy-storage devices. They
minimize high-frequency variations in input voltage (usually caused by IR
drops in conductors leading to the DC/DC) as the switching converter draws
pulses of current. Input capacitors should be selected for bulk capacitance
(at appropriate frequencies), low ESR, and high rms-ripple-current ratings.
The switching nature of modern DC/DC's requires that the dc input voltage
source have low ac impedance at the frequencies of interest. Highly inductive
source impedances can greatly affect system stability. Your specific system
configuration may necessitate additional considerations.

LSN2 Series
Non-isolated, DOSA-SIP, 6/10/16A Selectable-Output DC/DC Converters
calculated at low line with the converter's minimum efficiency should be
installed within the ungrounded input path to the converter.
Safety Considerations
LSN2 SIPs are non-isolated DC/DC converters. In general, all DC/DC’s must
be installed, including considerations for I/O voltages and spacing/separation
requirements, in compliance with relevant safety-agency specifications (usually
UL/IEC/EN60950-1).
In particular, for a non-isolated converter’s output voltage to meet SELV (safety
extra low voltage) requirements, its input must be SELV compliant. If the
output needs to be ELV (extra low voltage), the input must be ELV.
Figure 2. Measuring Input Ripple Current
Input Overvoltage and Reverse-Polarity Protection
LSN2 SIP Series DC/DC's do not incorporate either input overvoltage or input
reverse-polarity protection. Input voltages in excess of the specified absolute
maximum ratings and input polarity reversals of longer than "instantaneous"
duration can cause permanent damage to these devices.
Start-Up Time
The V
IN
to V
OUT
Start-Up Time is the interval between the time at which a
ramping input voltage crosses the lower limit of the specified input volt-
age range and the fully loaded output voltage enters and remains within its
specified accuracy band. Actual measured times will vary with input source
impedance, external input capacitance, and the slew rate and final value of
the input voltage as it appears to the converter.
The On/Off to V
OUT
Start-Up Time assumes the converter is turned off via the
On/Off Control with the nominal input voltage already applied to the converter.
The specification defines the interval between the time at which the converter
is turned on and the fully loaded output voltage enters and remains within its
specified accuracy band. See Typical Performance Curves.
Remote Sense
LSN2 Series offer an output sense function. The sense function enables point-
of-use regulation for overcoming moderate IR drops in conductors and/or
cabling. Since these are non-isolated devices whose inputs and outputs usu-
ally share the same ground plane, sense is provided only for the +Output.
The remote sense line is part of the feedback control loop regulating the DC/DC
converter’s output. The sense line carries very little current and consequently
requires a minimal cross-sectional-area conductor. As such, it is not a low-
impedance point and must be treated with care in layout and cabling. Sense
lines should be run adjacent to signals (preferably ground), and in cable and/or
discrete-wiring applications, twisted-pair or similar techniques should be used.
To prevent high frequency voltage differences between V
OUT
and Sense, we
recommend installation of a 1000pF capacitor close to the converter.
The sense function is capable of compensating for voltage drops between the
+Output and +Sense pins that do not exceed 10% of V
OUT
.
[V
OUT
(+) – Common] – [Sense(+) – Common]
≤
10%V
OUT
Power derating (output current limiting) is based upon maximum output
current and voltage at the converter's output pins. Use of trim and sense
functions can cause the output voltage to increase, thereby increasing output
power beyond the LSN2's specified rating. Therefore:
(V
OUT
at pins) x (I
OUT
)
≤
rated output power
Output ripple/noise (also referred to as periodic and random deviations or
PARD) may be reduced below specified limits with the installation of additional
external output capacitors. Output capacitors function as true filter elements
and should be selected for bulk capacitance, low ESR, and appropriate fre-
quency response. Any scope measurements of PARD should be made directly
at the DC/DC output pins with scope probe ground less than 0.5" in length.
Figure 3. Measuring Output Ripple/Noise (PARD)
All external capacitors should have appropriate voltage ratings and be located
as close to the converters as possible. Temperature variations for all relevant
parameters should be taken into consideration.
The most effective combination of external I/O capacitors will be a function
of your line voltage and source impedance, as well as your particular load
and layout conditions. Our Applications Engineers can recommend potential
solutions and discuss the possibility of our modifying a given device’s internal
filtering to meet your specific requirements. Contact our Applications Engineer-
ing Group for additional details.
Input Fusing
Most applications and or safety agencies require the installation of fuses at
the inputs of power conversion components. The LSN2 Series are not inter-
nally fused. Therefore, if input fusing is mandatory, either a normal-blow or a
slow-blow fuse with a value no greater than twice the maximum input current
