Operational Features
• Ultra-high efficiency, 96.5% at 40A
• Delivers up to 43 amps of output current with minimal
derating - no heatsink required
• Input voltage range: 35V – 55V provides 6.5-11V bus
for distributed power architectures
• Fixed frequency switching provides predictable EMI per-
formance

Conver ter
BQ55090QPA40 Module
Pr otection Features
• Input under-voltage lockout and over-voltage shutdown
protects against abnormal input voltages
• Output current limit and short circuit protection
• Thermal shutdown
Mechanical Features
• Industry standard quarter-brick bus converter pin-out
• Industry standard size: 1.45” x 2.3” (36.8x58.4mm)
• Total height only 0.467” (11.86mm), permits better air-
flow and smaller card pitch
• Total weight: 1.5 oz. (42 grams)
• Flanged pins designed to permit surface mount solder-
ing (avoid wave solder) using FPiP technique
Safety Features
• 2000V, 30 MW input-to-output isolation
• UL/cUL 60950-1 recognized (US & Canada), basic
insulation rating

NOTES
1) Pins 1-3 are 0.040” (1.02mm) diameter with 0.080”
(2.03 mm) diameter standoff shoulders.
2) Pins 4 and 5 are 0.062” (1.57 mm) diameter with 0.100”
(2.54 mm) diameter standoff shoulders.
3) Other pin extension lengths available. Recommended pin
length is 0.03” (0.76mm) greater than the PCB thickness.
4) All Pins: Material - Copper Alloy
Finish - Matte Tin over Nickel plate
5) Undimensioned components are shown for visual reference
only.
6) All dimensions in inches (mm)
Tolerances: x.xx +/-0.02 in. (x.x +/-0.5mm)
x.xxx +/-0.010 in. (x.xx +/-0.25mm)
7) Weight: 1.5 oz. (42 g) typical
8) Workmanship: Meets or exceeds IPC-A-610C Class II
9) UL/TUV standards require a clearance of 0.04” (1.02mm)
around primary areas of the module. Refer to section on
Keep Out Areas under Application Considerations for details.
10) The flanged pins are designed to permit surface mount
soldering (allowing to avoid the wave soldering process)
through the use of the flanged pin-in-paste technique.
