The MacroDens™ 10W PKF 4000A I series true
component level on-board DC/DC power modules are
intended as distributed power sources in decentralized
– 48 and – 60V DC power systems. Utilization of
thick film technology and a high degree of silicon
integra-tion has made it possible to achieve a MTBF
of more than 4.9 million hours.
The high reliability and the very low height of these
DC/DC power modules makes them particularly
suited for Information Technology and Telecom
(IT&T) applications, with board spacing down to
15 mm or 0.6 in.
The over-moulded rugged design also makes them
suitable for other demanding industrial applications.
They are optimized for free convection cooling and
have an operational ambient temperature range in
compliance with present and future application needs,
including non temperature controlled environments.
The mechanical design offers the choice of surface
mount or through-hole versions, delivered in ready-
to-use tubes, trays or tape & reel package, and
compati-bility with semi and fully aqueous cleaning
processes.
The PKF series is manufactured using highly
automated manufacturing lines with a world-class
quality commitment and a five-year warranty.
Ericsson Microelectronics AB has been an ISO 9001
certified supplier since 1991.

Stress in excess of Absolute Maximum
Ratings may cause permanent damage.
Absolute Maximum Ratings, sometimes
referred to as no destruction limits, are
normally tested with one parameter at a
time exceeding the limits of Output data
or Electrical Characteristics. If exposed to
stress above these limits, function and per-
formance may degrade in an unspecified
manner.

Thermal Data
Two-parameter model
This model provides a more precise description of the thermal charac-
teristics to be used for thermal calculations.
Thermally the power module can be considered as a component and
the case temperature can be used to characterize the properties. The
thermal data for a power module with the substrate in contact with
the case can be described with two thermal resistances. One from case
to ambient air and one from case to PB (Printed circuit Board).
The thermal characteristics temperature can be calculated from the
following formula:

Reflow Soldering Information
The PKF series of DC/DC power modules are manufactured in surface
mount technology. Extra precautions must therefore be taken when
reflow soldering the surface mount version. Neglecting the soldering
information given below may result in permanent damage or signifi-
cant degradation of power module performance.
The PKF series can be reflow soldered using IR, Natural Convection,
Forced Convection or Combined IR/Convection Technologies. The high
thermal mass of the component and its effect on
DT
(°C) requires that
particular attention be paid to other temperature sensitive components.
IR Reflow technology may require the overall profile time to be ex-
tended to approximately 8–10 minutes to ensure an acceptable
DT.
Higher activity flux may be more suitable to overcome the increase in
oxidation and to avoid flux burn-up.
The general profile parameters detailed in the diagram, with this ex-
tended time to reach peak temperatures, would then be suitable.
Note!
These are maximum parameters. Depending on process varia-
tions, an appropriate margin must be added.
Palladium plating is used on the terminal pins. A pin temperature (T
p
)
in excess of the solder fusing temperature (+183°C for Sn/Pb 63/37)
for more than 25 seconds and a peak temperature above 195°C, is
required to guarantee a reliable solder joint.
Both pin 1 and pin 9 must be monitored.
No responsibility is assumed if these recommendations are not
strictly followed.

Safety
The PKF 4000A I series DC/DC power modules are designed in
accordance with EN 60 950,
Safety of information technology equipment
including electrical business equipment.
SEMKO certificate no. 9814213.
The PKF power modules are recognized by UL and meet the applica-
ble requirements in UL 1950
Safety of information technology equipment,
the applicable Canadian safety requirements and UL 1012
Standard
for power supplies.
The DC/DC power module shall be installed in an end-use equip-
ment and considerations should be given to measuring the case tem-
perature to comply with T
C max
when in operation. Abnormal compo-
nent tests are conducted with the input protected by an external
15 A fuse. The need for repeating these tests in the end-use
appliance shall be considered if installed in a circuit having higher
rated devices.
When the supply to the DC/DC power module meets all the require-
ments for SELV (<60 V dc), the output is considered to remain within
SELV limits (level 3). The isolation is an operational insulation in
accordance with EN 60 950.
The DC/DC power module is intended to be supplied by isolated
secondary circuitry and shall be installed in compliance with the
requirements of the ultimate application. If they are connected to a
60 V DC system reinforced insulation must be provided in the power
supply that isolates the input from the mains. Single fault testing in
the power supply must be performed in combination with the
DC/DC power module to demonstrate that the output meets the
requirement for SELV. One pole of the input and one pole of the
output is to be grounded or both are to be kept floating.
The terminal pins are only intended for connection to mating con-
nectors of internal wiring inside the end-use equipment.
These DC/DC power modules may be used in telephone equipment
in accordance with paragraph 34 A.1 of UL 1459 (Standard for Tele-
phone Equipment, second edition).
The galvanic isolation is verified in an electric strength test. Test
voltage (V
ISO
) between input and output is 1,500 V dc for 60 s. In
production the test duration may be decreased to 1 s.
The capacitor between input and output has a value of 1 nF and the
leakage current is less than 1µA @ 53 V dc.
The case is designed in non-conductive epoxy. Its flammability
rating meets UL 94V-0. The oxygen index is 34%
