Description
The new HHS60 series of high-density, single-output DC/DC converters is ideal for telecom and datacom systems
that require low voltage at high current in an industry-standard, half-brick footprint. Highly efficient topology and
thermally-optimized construction allow the units to provide high output current in the system over a wide operating
temperature range while still maintaining a safe guardband for component electrical and thermal ratings. The
addition of an external heatsink increases the capacity of the unit. The HHS60 employs 100% surface-mount
components for consistency and reliability in our production process, and is available in five standard output
voltages from 1.2 V to 3.3 V.

When the ON/OFF pin is used to achieve remote
control, the user must take care to insure that the pin
reference for the control is really the -Vin pin. The
control signal must not be referenced ahead of EMI
filtering or remotely from the unit. Optically coupling
the information and locating the optical coupler
directly at the module will solve any of these
problems.
Note:
If the ON/OFF pin is not used, it can be left floating (positive logic),
or connected to the -Vin pin (negative logic).
Output Voltage Trim
The trim feature allows the user to adjust the output
voltage from the nominal value. This can be used to
compensate distribution drops, perform margining in
production, or accommodate other requirements
when output voltage needs to be adjusted from the
nominal. There are two trim options available in the
HHS60 Series.
Standard Negative Trim (No suffix)
The negative trim method is the Power-One
standard. The HHS60 standard trim units trim up
with a resistor from the TRIM pin to the Sense pin
and trim down with a resistor from the TRIM Fig.8
HHS60 Series negative trim schematic pin to the
+Sense pin as shown in Figure 8.
Figure 7. Typical Application of the HHS60 Series
The HHS60 series converters do not require any
external components for proper operation. However,
if the distribution of the input voltage to the converter
contains significant inductance, the capacitor C1
may be required to enhance performance of the
converter.
A minimum of a 100µF electrolytic
capacitor with the ESR<0.7Ω is recommended for
the HHS60 series.
If magnitude of the inrush current needs to be
limited, see the “Inrush Current Control Application
Note” on the Power-One website at www.power-
one.com.
For output decoupling we recommend using a 10µF
tantalum and a 1µF ceramic capacitors connected
directly across the output pins of the converter.
Note, that the capacitors do not substitute the
filtering required by the load.
Shutdown Feature Description
The ON/OFF pin in the HHS60 Series converters
functions as a normal soft shutdown. It is referenced
to the –Vin pin (see Figure 7). With positive logic,
when the ON/OFF pin is pulled low, the output is
turned off and the unit goes into a very low input
power mode. With negative logic, when the ON/OFF
pin is pulled low, the unit is turned on.
An open collector switch is recommended to control
the voltage between the ON/OFF pin and the -Vin
pin of the converter. The ON/OFF pin is pulled up
internally, so no external voltage source is required.
The user should avoid connecting a resistor between
the ON/OFF pin and the +Vin pin.
