The high efficiency, low noise and long-term reliability that defines DATEL
DC/DC Converters now comes to you in the standard "half-brick" configuration (2.3"
x 2.4" x 0.5"). All models in our new UCP Series meet UL1950 and EN60950 safety
requirements, including each European country’s deviations. A CB Test Certificate/
Report is available. All models have BASIC insulation; guarantee 1500Vdc isolation;
and because they are designed with Class B thermal insulation, satisfy all safety
requirements over their full operating temperatures.
UCP Models are designed for demanding telecom, datacom and networking
applications. Their "semi-synchronous-rectifier" design (400kHz switching) achieves
impressive efficiencies (up to 88%). Output voltages are 3.3, 5, 12 or 15 Volts. Input
voltage ranges are 18-36V ("D24" models) or 36-75V ("D48" models). All "D48"
models meet the Low Voltage Directive (LVD) and carry the CE mark.
For high reliability and affordability, DATEL utilizes high-speed automatic
assembly to construct the UCP’s proven SMT-on-pcb designs. All models have been
rigorously qualified (including a 500-hour life test) and EMC characterized. Devices
are housed in metal cases (with non-conductive baseplates) that incorporate
threaded inserts for add-on heat sinks and/or pcb mounting.
UCP’s feature input pi filters, input undervoltage and overvoltage lockout, output
current limiting, short-circuit protection, and thermal shutdown. Additionally, all
devices have output trim capability and an on/off control pin that can be ordered
with either polarity or replaced with a sync function. We can easily modify standard-
product UCP’s to meet your application-specific requirements.

TECHNICAL NOTES
Floating Outputs
Since these are isolated DC/DC converters, their outputs are "floating."
Designers will usually use the –Output (pin 9) as the ground/return of the
load circuit. You can, however, use the +Output (pin 5) as ground/return to
effectively reverse the output polarity.
Filtering and Noise Reduction
All UCP DC/DC Converters achieve their rated ripple and noise specifications
using the external input and output capacitors specified in the Performance/
Functional Specifications table. In critical applications, input/output noise
may be further reduced by installing additional external I/O caps. Input
capacitors should be selected for bulk capacitance, low ESR and high rms-
ripple-current ratings. Output capacitors should be selected for low ESR and
appropriate frequency response. All caps should have appropriate voltage
ratings and be mounted as close to the converters as possible.
The most effective combination of external I/O capacitors will be a function of
your particular load and layout conditions. Our Applications Engineers will be
happy to recommend potential solutions and can discuss the possibility of
our modifying a given device’s internal filtering to meet your specific
requirements. Contact our Applications Engineering Group for additional
details.
Input Fusing
Certain applications and/or safety agencies may require the installation of
fuses at the inputs of power conversion components. Fuses should also be
used if the possibility of sustained, non-current-limited, input-voltage polarity
reversals exists. For DATEL UCP DC/DC Converters, you should use slow-
blow type fuses with values no greater than the following.

On/Off Control (Standard)
The On/Off Control pin (pin 3) may be used for remote on/off operation.
As shown in Figure 4, the control pin is referenced to the –Input (pin 1) and
has an internal pull-up resistor (75kΩ and 100kΩ respectively for "D24" and
"D48" models) to the +Input (pin 4). The standard UCP converter is designed
so that it is enabled when the control pin is left open and disabled when the
control pin is pulled low (to less than +0.8V relative to –Input). When left
open, pin 3 is pulled up to approximately 5V on "D24" models and 8V on
"D48" models.
Dynamic control of the on/off function is best accomplished with a mechani-
cal relay or an open-collector/open-drain drive circuit (optically isolated if
appropriate). The drive circuit should obviously be able to sink approximately
1mA when activated and withstand more than 10 Volts when deactivated.
Applying an external voltage to pin 3 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 (pin 3 pulled low) while input power is ramping up and then
"released" once the input has stabilized. Under these circumstances, it takes
approximately 30ms for the output of the fully loaded DC/DC to ramp up and
settle to within rated accuracy.
For UCP converters configured with the negative-polarity option on the On/
Off Control pin ("N" suffix added to part number), operation is exactly
opposite to that described above.
Synchronization (Optional)
In critical applications employing multiple switching DC/DC converters, it may
be desirable to intentionally synchronize the switching of selected converters
(so the system noise can be reduced with notch filtering) or to purposely
desynchronize the converters (to lessen the current-carrying requirements on
intermediate dc buses). UCP DC/DC Converters have been designed so that
the On/Off Control function on pin 3 can be replaced with a Sync function (add
"S" suffix to part number). This change has to be implemented by DATEL
during the product assembly process. Contact our Applications Engineering
Group for additional details.
To synchronize the switching of multiple UCP converters configured with the
Sync function, an external clock can be applied to pin 3 of each converter.
The clock should be a square wave referenced to –Input (logic high = +3.5 to
+5 Volts, 800µA max.; logic low = 0 to +1 Volt, 800µA max.) with a maximum
1µsec "high" duration. The frequency of the synchronizing clock should be
higher than that of any individual converter. Therefore, it should be approxi-
mately 430kHz.
Output Trimming
V
OUT
may be trimmed ±5% via a single trimpot or fixed resistor. As shown in
Figure 5, the trimpot should be connected between +Output (pin 5) and
–Output (pin 9) with its wiper connected to Trim (pin 7). A trimpot can also be
used to determine the value of a single fixed resistor which can be connected
between pin 7 (Trim) and pin 5 (+Output) to trim "down" the output voltage, or
between pins 7 (Trim) and 9 (–Output) to trim "up" the output voltage, as
shown in Figure 6. Fixed resistors should be metal-film types with absolute
TCR's less than 100ppm/°C to ensure stability.
Start-Up Threshold and Undervoltage Shutdown
Under normal start-up conditions, devices will not begin to regulate until the
ramping-up input voltage exceeds the Start-Up Threshold Voltage (35V for
"D48" models). Once operating, devices will not turn off until the input voltage
drops below the Undervoltage Shutdown/Lockout limit (34V for "D48"
models). Subsequent re-start will not occur until the input is brought back up
to the Start-Up Threshold. This built-in hysteresis obviously avoids any
unstable on/off situations at a single voltage.
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 turn-on threshold point and the fully-
loaded output voltage enters and remains within its specified accuracy band.
Actual measured times will vary with input source impedance, external input
capacitance, and the slew rate and final value of the input voltage as it
appears to the converter.
The On/Off to V
OUT
start-up time assumes the converter has its nominal input
voltage applied but is turned off via the On/Off Control. 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.
