As supply voltages trend lower and load currents increase, centralized power
becomes more impractical. The tight accuracy, low noise and quick transient
response demanded by today's low voltage CPU's, ASIC's and DSP's make power
processing at the point of use the only viable solution. The UNR 18-33W series
provides a complete line of non-isolated DC/DC converters to satisfy this require-
ment. With input voltages of 5V (-D5 models) and 12V (-D12 models) these convert-
ers offer standard output voltages of 1.8, 2.5 and 3.3 Volts and up to 10 Amps of
output current in both through-hole and surface-mount 1" x 2" metal cases.
With on/off control and output voltage trim capability as standard features, these
non-isolated converters exploit full synchronous rectification, planar magnetics, and
100% automated assembly to deliver high efficiencies (to 91%) and low noise at
low cost.
These versatile DC/DC’s are fully line and load regulated. They feature quick
transient response (50µsec), user-optional on/off control (for power sequencing),
and output overcurrent detection and shutdown ("hiccup" technique with auto-
recovery). Their impressive guaranteed efficiencies enable them to deliver fully rated
output power from –40 to +50/55°C (ambient) without supplemental cooling.
If your high current requirements have made the use of inefficient linear regula-
tors impractical, take a look at one of DATEL’s new switching buck regulators. Their
high efficiency, ease-of-use, long-term reliability, and overall cost effectiveness will
impress you. Safety agency approvals and EMC characterizations are currently in
progress.

Return Current Paths
These are non-isolated DC/DC converters. The Input Return, Output Return
and Logic Ground pins are all connected together internally. To the extent
possible, all input and load currents should be returned through the Input
Return and Output Return, respectively (via low-impedance runs). Any con-
trol signals applied to the On/Off Control pin should be referenced to Logic
Ground. The internal trace leading to Logic Ground is not designed to carry
high current. Consequently, devices should never be installed in a manner
that results in high current flow through Logic Ground (i.e., the Input/Output
Return pins should never be left open or connected via high-impedance paths).

Figure 2. Driving the On/Off Control Pin
All UNR 18-33W Series converters are tested and specified with external
470µF input capacitors (20mΩ ESR, 6Arms ripple-current rating) and
external 22µF output capacitors (200mΩ ESR). External input capacitance is
required and must be rated to handle the input ripple current as follows:
Dynamic control of the on/off function is best accomplished with a mechanical
relay or open-collector/open-drain drive circuit (optically isolated if appropri-
ate). The drive circuit should be able to sink appropriate current when
activated and withstand appropriate voltage when deactivated.
Applying an external voltage to the On/Off Control pin when no input power is
applied to the converter can cause permanent damage to the converter. The
on/off control function, however, is designed such that the converter can
be disabled (control pin pulled low) while input voltage is ramping up and
then "released" once the input has stabilized. The time duration between the
point at which the converter is released and its fully loaded output settles
to within specified accuracy can be found in the Performance/Functional
Specifications Table. See Start-Up Time for more details.
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 voltage
range (4.75V for D5 models, 10.8V for D12 models) and the fully loaded
output voltage enters and remains within it specified accuracy band. Actual
measured times will vary with heavy capacitive loading.
The On/Off to V
OUT
Start-Up Time assumes the converter is turned off via
the Remote 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 for details
Output Overvoltage Protection
UNR 18-33W Series DC/DC converters do not incorporate output overvolt-
age protection. In the extremely rare situation in which the device’s feedback
loop is broken, the output voltage may run to excessively high levels. If it is
absolutely imperative that you protect your load against any and all possible
overvoltage situations, voltage limiting circuitry must be provided external to
the power converter.
Output Overcurrent Detection
Overloading the output of a power converter for an extended period of
time will invariably cause internal component temperatures to exceed their
maximum ratings and eventually lead to component failure. High-current-
carrying components such as transformers, FET's and diodes are at the
highest risk. UNR 18-33W Series DC/DC converters incorporate an output
overcurrent detection and shutdown function that serves to protect both the
power converter and its load.
In critical applications, input/output ripple/noise may be further reduced by
installing additional I/O caps.
Input Overvoltage and Reverse-Polarity Protection
UNR 18-33W Series DC/DC converters do not incorporate either input over-
voltage or input reverse-polarity protection. Input voltages in excess of the
listed absolute maximum ratings and input polarity reversals of longer than
"instantaneous" duration can cause permanent damage to these devices.
On/Off Control
The On/Off Control pin may be used for remote on/off operation. UNR 18-
33W Series DC/DC converters are designed so that they are enabled when
the control pin is pulled high or left open (normal mode) and disabled when
the control pin is pulled low (to less than +0.8V relative to Logic Ground). As
shown in Figure 2, D5 models have internal 4.99kΩ pull-up resistors to V
IN
(+Input), while D12 models have 12.4kΩ.

N O N - I S O L AT E D, 1 8 - 3 3 W, 5 & 1 2 V- I N P U T D C / D C C O N V E RT E R S
UNR Models
When the output current of a thermally stabilized converter exceeds the
maximum rating by 40% (typical) to 80% (maximum), the internal overcurrent
detection circuit shuts down the converter by discharging the soft-start circuit
of the pulse width modulator (PWM). In this off state, which is similar to that
achieved by pulling the On/Off Control low, the output voltage quickly drops
as the output capacitors discharge into the load. Since there is no longer any
output current, the overcurrent detection circuit is released, allowing the soft-
start circuit to recharge and the converter to turn on again. If the faulty load
condition persists, the overcurrent detection circuit will again discharge the
soft-start circuit and shut down the converter. This continuous on/off cycling
of the converter is referred to as “hiccup mode.” Once the overload condition
is removed, the converter remains on, and the output voltage is quickly
restored to its regulated value.
The components used to sense the output current have large temperature
coefficients. Consequently, in a "cold-start" situation, the Overcurrent Detec-
tion Point may temporarily move to 80% to 120% above the rated current
specification. The device quickly heats up, particularly if an overload situation
exists, and restores the normal (40%) Overcurrent Detection Point. The
device will not be damaged by starting up into an output-short-circuit condition.
The overcurrent detection circuitry helps keep internal current levels and
operating temperatures within safe operating limits. Nevertheless, sustained
operation at current levels above the rated output current but below the Over-
current Detection Point may result in permanent damage to the converter.
Output Voltage Trimming
UNR 18-33W devices can be trimmed to any voltage between 1.50V and
3.55V. Trimming is accomplished with either a trimpot or a single fixed resis-
tor. The trimpot should be connected between +Output and Output Return
with its wiper connected to the Trim pin as shown in Figure 3 below.

Figure 3. Trim Connections Using a Trimpot
A trimpot can be used to determine the value of a single fixed resistor
which should be connected, as shown in Figure 4, between the Trim pin and
+Output to trim down the output voltage, or between the Trim pin and Output
Return to trim up the output voltage. Fixed resistors should be metal-film
types with absolute TCR’s less than 100ppm/°C to ensure stability.
The equations below can be used as starting points for selecting specific
trim-resistor values. Recall that untrimmed devices are guaranteed to be
between
±1%
and ±2% accurate, depending on model. See Performance
and Functional Specifications.
