PRODUCT OVERVIEW
For efficient, fully isolated DC power in the small-
est space, Murata Power Solutions' UVQ series
quarter bricks offer output voltages from 1.5
to 48 Volts with currents up to 40 Amps. UVQs
operate over a wide temperature range (up to
+70°C at 200 lfm airflow) at full-rated power. The
optional mounting baseplate extends this to all
practical temperature ranges at full power.
UVQ’s achieve these impressive specifications
while delivering excellent electrical performance.
Overall noise is 35mVp-p (3.3V models) with fast
step response (down to 50µsec). These converters
offer high stability even with no load and tight out-
put regulation. The unit is fully protected against
input over and undervoltage, output overcur-
rent and short circuit. An on-board temperature
sensor shuts down the converter if thermal limits
are reached. Protection uses the “hiccup” (auto
restart) method.
A convenient remote On/Off control input oper-
ates by external digital logic, relay or transistor
input. To compensate for longer wiring and to
retain output voltage accuracy at the load, UVQ’s
include a Sense input to dynamically correct for
ohmic losses. A trim input may be connected to a
user’s adjustment potentiometer or trim resistors
for output voltage calibration closer than the
standard accuracy.
UVQ’s include industry-standard safety certi-
fications and BASIC I/O insulation provides 2250
Volt input/output isolation. Radiation emission
testing is performed to widely-accepted EMC
standards. Contact MPS for details on HALT quali-
fication testing. The UVQ’s may be considered as
higher performance replacements for some MPS
USQ models.

All specifications are at nominal line voltage and full load, +25°C unless other-
wise noted. See detailed specifications.
Output capacitors are 1uF ceramic || 10 uF electrolytic. Input cap is 22 uF, low
ESR, except UVQ-24/4.5 is 33uF and UVQ-48/2.5 uses no input cap. I/O caps are
necessary for our test equipment and may not be needed for your application.

UVQ Pin 9 Baseplate Connection
The UVQ series may include an optional installed baseplate for extended
thermal management. Various UVQ models (see list below) are also available
with an additional pin 9 on special order which connects to the baseplate but is
electrically isolated from the rest of the converter. Please refer to the mechani-
cal drawings.
Pin 9 offers a positive method of controlling the electrical potential of the
baseplate, independent of the converter. Some baseplate models cannot
include pin 9 and in such cases, the baseplate is grounded by the mounting
bolts. Or consider adding an external lugged washer with a grounding terminal.
The baseplate may be ordered by adding a “B” to the model number tree
and pin 9 will be pre-installed by adding a “9”. The two options are separate.
Please refer to the Ordering Guide. Do not order pin 9 without the baseplate.
Note that “pin 9” converters may be on limited forecast, requiring minimum
order quantities and scheduled deliveries.
Models available with Pin 9:
UVQ-12/10-D48
UVQ-1.5/40-D24
Models which are NOT available with Pin 9:
UVQ-5/20-D24 and –D48
UVQ-3.3/30-D24
UVQ-3.3/35-D48
UVQ-2.5/35-D24
UVQ-2.5/40-D48
Other models which are not listed will be reviewed for future pin 9 accomo-
dation.
