26-40 Watt DC/DC Converters
The newest products in DATEL’s flagship A-Series are the UWR, 26-40 Watt
isolated singles. Housed in standard 2" x 2" metal packages (which have traditionally
carried 15-20 Watt devices), these power converters supply up to 9 Amps @ 3.3V
or 8 Amps at 5V. They exemplify DATEL’s relentless drive to bring designers more
power/current, in standard packages/pinouts, without compromising reliability or
resorting to thermal specmanship. Input voltage ranges are 10-18V (“D12” models),
18-36V (“D24” models) or 36-75V (“D48”) models.
Employing an advanced, fully synchronous, high-frequency (300-360kHz) for-
ward topology, UWR 26-40W singles attain 88-90% efficiencies enabling full-power
operation to ambient temperatures as high as +55°C without supplemental air flow.
Assembled using fully automated, SMT-on-pcb techniques, these DC/DC’s addition-
ally provide low noise (75mVp-p), high accuracy (±1%), tight line/load regulation
(±0.5%), quick step response (200µsec), and stable no-load operation.
All models feature input pi filters, input undervoltage and overvoltage shutdown,
output overvoltage protection, current limiting, short-circuit protection, and thermal
shutdown. Each model has a V
OUT
trim pin as well as an on/off control function that
may be ordered with either positive or negative polarity. These devices are fully iso-
lated (1500Vdc) and satisfy UL/EN/IEC60950 safety requirements for FUNCTIONAL
insulation. “D48” models (36-75V inputs) are CE marked.

Start-Up and Undervoltage Shutdown
Under normal start-up conditions, UWR 26-40W converters will not begin
to regulate properly until the ramping input voltage exceeds the Start-Up
Threshold. Once operating, devices will turn off when the applied voltage
droops below the Undervoltage Shutdown point. Devices will remain off as
long as the undervoltage condition continues. Units will automatically restart
when the applied voltage is brought back above the Start-Up Threshold.. The
hysteris is built into the function avoids an indeterminate on/off condition at
a single input voltage . See Performance/Functional Specifications table for
actual limits.
On/Off Control
The input-side, remote On/Off Control function (pin 4) can be ordered to
operate with either polarity. Positive-polarity devices (standard, no part-num-
ber suffix) are enabled when pin 4 is left open or is pulled high (+13V to
V
IN
applied with respect to –Input, pin 2, (see Figure 2). Positive-polarity
devices are disabled when pin 4 is pulled low (0-0.8V with respect to –Input).
Negative-polarity devices are off when pin 4 open or pulled high (3.3V to
+V
IN
), and on when pin 4 is pulled low (0-0.8V). See Figure 3.

Floating Outputs
Since these are isolated DC/DC converters, their outputs are "floating," with
respect to the input. Designers will normally use the –Output (pin 7) as the
ground/return of the load circuit. You can, however, use the +Output (pin 6) as
ground/return to effectively reverse the output polarity.
Minimum Output Loading Requirements
UWR 26-40 Watt converters employ a synchronous-rectifier design topology.
All models regulate within spec and are stable under no-load conditions.
Filtering and Noise Reduction
All UWR 26-40 Watt DC/DC Converters achieve their rated ripple and
noise specifications using the external output capacitor specified in the
Performance/Functional Specifications table. In critical applications, input/
output noise may be further reduced by installing additional external I/O caps.
Input capacitors should be selected for bulk capacitance, low ESR and
high rms-ripple-current ratings. Input capacitors serve as energy-storage
devices to minimize variations in line voltage caused by transient IR drops in
PCB conductors from backplane to the DC/DC. Output capacitors should be
selected for low ESR and appropriate frequency response. All caps should
have appropriate voltage ratings and be mounted as close to the converters
as possible.
The most effective combination of external I/O capacitors will be a function
of your particular load and layout conditions. Our Applications Engineers can
recommend potential solutions. Contact our Applications Engineering Group
for additional details.

Figure 3. Driving the Negative Polarity On/Off Control Pin
When output power increases above the rated output current, (see Current
Limit in Performance/Functional Specifications) the DC/DC converter will go
into a current limiting mode. In this condition the output voltage will decrease
proportionately with increases in output current, thereby maintaining a
somewhat constant power dissipation. This is commonly referred to as
power limiting. Current limit inception is defined as the point where the full-
power output voltage falls below the specified tolerance. See Performance/
Functional Specifications. If the load current being drawn from the converter
is significant enough, the unit will go into a short circuit condition. See "Short
Circuit Condition."
Short Circuit Condition
Dynamic control of the remote on/off function is best accomplished with
a mechanical relay or an open-collector/open-drain drive circuit (optically
isolated if appropriate). The drive circuit should be able to sink appropriate
current (see Performance Specs) when activated and withstand appropriate
voltage when deactivated.
Applying an external voltage to pin 4 when no input power is applied to the
converter can cause permanent damage to the converter.

Start-Up Time
The V
IN
to V
OUT
start-up time is the interval of time where the input voltage
crosses the turn-on threshold point, 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/output capacitance, and
load. The UWR 26-40 Watt implements a soft start circuit that limits the duty
cycle of the PWM controller at power up, thereby limiting the Input Inrush
current.
The On/Off Control to V
OUT
start-up time assumes the converter has its
nominal input voltage applied but is turned off via the On/Off Control
pin. 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. Similar to the V
IN
to V
OUT
start-up, the On/Off Control to V
OUT
start-up time is also governed by the
internal soft start circuitry and external load capacitance.
Input Overvoltage/Undervoltage Shutdown and Start-Up Threshold
Under normal start-up conditions, devices will not begin to regulate until
the ramping-up input voltage exceeds the Start-Up Threshold Voltage (35V
for "D48" models). Once operating, devices will not turn off until the input
voltage drops below the Undervoltage Shutdown limit (34V for "D48" models).
Subsequent re-start will not occur until the input is brought back up to the
Start-Up Threshold. This built in hysteresis prevents any unstable on/off
situations from occurring at a single input voltage.
Input voltages exceeding the input overvoltage shutdown specification listed
in the Performance/Functional Specifications will cause the device to shut-
down. A built-in hysteresis of 0.6 to 1.6 Volts for all models will not allow the
converter to restart until the input voltage is sufficiently reduced.
When a converter is in current limit mode the output voltages will drop as
the output current demand increases. If the output voltage drops too low, the
magnetically coupled voltage used to develop primary side voltages will also
drop, thereby shutting down the PWM controller.
Following a time-out period the PWM will restart causing the output voltages
to begin ramping to their appropriate values. If the short-circuit condition
persists, another shutdown cycle will be initiated. This on/off cycling is
referred to as "hiccup" mode. The hiccup cycling reduces the average output
current, thereby preventing internal temperatures from rising to excessive
levels. The UWR 26-40 Watt A-Series is capable of enduring an indefinite
short circuit output condition.
Thermal Shutdown
These A-Series converters are equipped with Thermal Shutdown Circuitry.
If environmental conditions cause the internal temperature of the DC/DC
converter to rise above the designed operating temperature, a precision
temperature sensor will power down the unit. When the internal temperature
decreases below the threshold of the temperature sensor the unit will self
start. See Performance/Functional Specifications.
Output Overvoltage Protection
The output voltage is monitored for an overvoltage condition via magnetic
coupling to the primary side. If the output voltage rises to a fault condition,
which could be damaging to the load circuitry (see Performance Specifica-
tions), the sensing circuitry will power down the PWM controller causing the
output voltage to decrease. Following a time-out period the PWM will restart,
causing the output voltage to ramp to its appropriate value. If the fault
condition persists, and the output voltages again climb to excessive levels,
the overvoltage circuitry will initiate another shutdown cycle. This on/off
cycling is referred to as "hiccup" mode.
