The migration to distributed power is accelerating. The critical need for accurate
voltages, tight regulation and rapid transient response is propelling the move to power
processing at the "point-of-use" with low-power DC/DC converters physically located
right at their loads.
DATEL’s miniature, full featured, 5 Watt BWR Models were specifically designed for
today’s demanding distributed power architectures in aerospace, marine, telecom and
computer applications. The converters’ small size (1" x 1" x 0.45"),
full 5 Watt output capability and low cost give system architects unprecedented design
and layout flexibility.
Occupying less than 0.5in
3
total volume, these extremely compact, fully regulated
and isolated (1000Vdc) modules are available with ±5, ±12 or ±15 Volt outputs. Input
voltage ranges are either 18-36 Volts ("D24" models) or 36-72 Volts ("D48" models).
Although their overall size is 50-75% smaller than many similarly rated power
modules, these 1" x 1" BWR Models are exact, drop-in, pin-for-pin replacements for
many standard 2" x 1" and 2" x 2", 5 Watt modules. They achieve their small size and
low cost by exploiting a novel feedback approach that does not depend upon traditional
optocoupler techniques.
All models are 5-side shielded and have a non-conductive baseplate that permits
pc-card runs to be placed beneath the package. Units are assembled using high-
speed automated SMT techniques and are fully encapsulated with thermally conductive
potting compound. Every unit is electrically tested before
and after encapsulation, 100% burned-in under full load, hi-pot tested, and final-
electrical tested prior to shipment. Every unit meets DATEL’s traditional high standards
for quality and long-term reliability.

Floating Outputs
Since these are isolated DC/DC converters, their outputs are "floating." Any
BWR model may be configured to produce an output of 10V, 24V or 30V
(for ±5V, ±12V or ±15V models, respectively) by applying the load across
the +Output and –Output (pins 3 and 6), with either output grounded. The
Common (pin 4) should be left open. Minimum 20% loading is recom-
mended under these conditions.
Filtering and Noise Reduction
All BWR 5 Watt DC/DC Converters achieve their rated ripple and noise
specifications without the use of external input/output capacitors. In critical
applications, input/output ripple and noise may be further reduced by
installing low-ESR, tantalum or electrolytic capacitors across the input
and/or output terminals. Output capacitors should be connected between
their respective output pin (pin 3 or 6) and Common (pin 4)as shown in
Figure 2. The capacitors should be located as close to the power
converters as possible. Typical values are listed below. In many applica-
tions, using values greater than those listed will yield better results.

If you’re designing with EMC in mind, please note that all of DATEL’s BWR 5
Watt DC/DC Converters have been characterized for radiated and conducted
emissions in our new EMI/EMC laboratory. Testing is conducted in an EMCO
5305 GTEM test cell utilizing EMCO automated EMC test software. Radiated
emissions are tested to the limits of FCC Part 15, Class B and CISPR 22
(EN 55022) Class B. Correlation to other specifications can be supplied upon
request. Radiated emissions plots to FCC and CISPR 22 for model BWR-15/
165-D48 appear below. Its performance is typical of all models in the Family.
Published EMC test reports are available for each model number. Contact
DATEL’s Applications Engineering Department for details.
