The MINMAX MCWI03 series is a range of isolated 3W DC/DC converter modules featuring fully regulated output and ultra-wide 4:1 input voltage ranges.
The product comes in a SIP-8 package with a very small footprint occupying only 2.0 cm2 (0.3 square in.) on the PCB.
An excellent efficiency allows an operating temperature range of -40°C to +85°C. Further features include remote On/Off control and over load protection.
The very compact dimensions of these DC/DC converters make them an ideal solution for many space critical applications in battery-powered equipment
and instrumentation.

Ripple & Noise measurement bandwidth is 0-20 MHz measured with a 1µF M/C.
These power converters require a minimum output loading to maintain specified regulation, operation under no-load conditions will not damage these
modules; however, they may not meet all specifications listed.
All DC/DC converters should be externally fused at the front end for protection.
Other input and output voltage may be available, please contact factory.
That “natural convection” is about 20LFM but is not equal to still air (0 LFM).
Specifications are subject to change without notice.
Specifications typical at Ta=+25℃, resistive load, nominal input voltage and rated output current unless otherwise noted.
Transient recovery time is measured to within 1% error band for a step change in output load of 75% to 100%.

MCWI03 SERIES
Peak-to-Peak Output Noise Measurement Test
Use a Cout 0.47µF ceramic capacitor. Scope measurement should be made by using a BNC socket, measurement bandwidth is 0-20 MHz. Position the load between
50 mm and 75 mm from the DC/DC Converter.

Remote On/Off
Negative logic remote on/off turns the module off during a logic high voltage on the remote on/off pin, and on during a logic low. To turn the power module on and off,
the user must supply a switch to control the voltage between the on/off terminal and the -Vin terminal. The switch can be an open collector or equivalent.
A logic high is 2.7V to 15V. A logic low is under 0.6 VDC or open circuit, drops down to 0VDC by 2mV/℃. The maximum sink current at on/off terminal during a logic
low is 1 mA. The maximum allowable leakage current of the switch at on/off terminal= (under 0.6VDC or open circuit) is 1mA.
Maximum Capacitive Load
The MCWI03 series has limitation of maximum connected capacitance at the output. The power module may be operated in current limiting mode during start-up,
affecting the ramp-up and the startup time. The maximum capacitance can be found in the data sheet.
Overcurrent Protection
To provide protection in a fault (output overload) condition, the unit is equipped with internal current limiting circuitry and can endure current limiting for an unlimited
duration. At the point of current-limit inception, the unit shifts from voltage control to current control. The unit operates normally once the output current is brought back
into its specified range.
Input Source Impedance
The power module should be connected to a low ac-impedance input source. Highly inductive source impedances can affect the stability of the power module. In
applications where power is supplied over long lines and output loading is high, it may be necessary to use a capacitor at the input to ensure startup.
Capacitor mounted close to the power module helps ensure stability of the unit, it is commended to use a good quality low Equivalent Series Resistance (ESR < 1.0
at 100 KHz) capacitor of a 3.3µF for the 12V input devices and a 1.5µF for the 24V and 48V devices.

Technical Notes
Output Ripple Reduction
A good quality low ESR capacitor placed as close as practicable across the load will give the best ripple and noise performance. To reduce output ripple, it is
recommended to use 3.3µF capacitors at the output.

Thermal Considerations
Many conditions affect the thermal performance of the power module, such as orientation, airflow over the module and board spacing. To avoid exceeding the
maximum temperature rating of the components inside the power module, the case temperature must be kept below 105℃. The derating curves are determined from
measurements obtained in a test setup.
