Description
The CP2000DC54-PE DC/DC Converter, also called a Power Entry Module (PEM) in the Compact Power Line platform is
specifically designed to operate as an integral part of a complete distributed power system. The high-density, front-
to-back airflow PEM is designed for minimal space utilization and is highly expandable for future growth. It is provided
with many features including PoE isolation, and dual-redundant I
2
C communications busses that allow it to be used in
a broad range of applications. These signals and the 5V auxiliary supply are isolated from the main output and frame
ground. The flexible feature set makes this Power Entry Module an excellent choice for applications requiring modular
dc-to-dc bulk intermediate voltages, such as in distributed power.

Hiccup performance attempts automatic recovery from an overload shutdown with approximately a 90% off-time duty cycle. The duty cycle
varies periodically in order to guarantee multi-module recovery synchronization. Latchoff can be chosen via software instead of the default
hiccup. Recovery from a latchoff requires ENABLING, or software commanding OFF followed by an ON after a 2 second delay.

Status and Control
The PEM provides two means for monitor/control: analog or I
2
C.
Details of analog controls are provided in this data sheet under
Signal Definitions. GE Energy will provide separate application
notes on the I
2
C protocol for users to interface to the CPL PEMs.
Contact your local GE Energy representative for details.
Data Sheet
Module Present Signal:
This signal has dual functionality. It can
be used to alert the system when a module is inserted. A 500Ω
resistor is present in series between this signal and Logic_GRD. An
external pull-up should not raise the voltage on the pin above
0.25Vdc. Above 1Vdc, the write_protect feature of the EEPROM is
enabled.
Protocol Select:
Establishes the communications mode of the
power supply, between analog/I
2
C and RS485 modes. For RS485,
connect 10kΩ pull-down resistor to 54_OUT(-DC).
Enable:
On/Off control when I
2
C communications are utilized as
configured by the Protocol pin. This pin must be pulled low to turn
ON
the power supply. The power supply will turn
OFF
if either the
Enable
or the
ON/OFF
pin is released. This signal is referenced to
Logic_GRD.
ON/OFF:
This is a short pin utilized for hot-plug applications to
ensure that the power supply turns
OFF
before the power pins are
disengaged. It also ensures that the power supply turns
ON
only
after the power pins have been engaged. Must be connected to
V_OUT (-DC).
Hot Plug
When rapidly extracting and reinserting modules care should be
taken to allow for discharging the internal bias supply so that a
predictable restart could be achieved. The way to ensure that the
circuit sufficiently discharges is to observe the spinning of the fans
after an extraction. The unit should not be reinserted until the fans
stop spinning.
Without bleeding down internal bias the module may remember
its last assigned address and may not configure itself properly if
reinserted into another slot.
Control Definitions
All signals are referenced to Logic_GRD unless otherwise noted.
See the Signal Definitions Table at the end of this document for
further description of all the signals.
Status Signals
Power_OK:
This signal is HI when the main output is present and
goes LO when the main output is not present.
I_limit:
This signal is HI when the main output is not in current
limit and goes LO when current limit has activated.
Alert #:
I
2
C interrupt signal.
Fault:
This signal goes LO for any failure that requires PEM
replacement. Some of these faults may be due to:
Fan failure
Over-temperature condition
Over-temperature shutdown
Over-voltage shutdown
Internal PEM Fault
Control Signals
Margining:
Set point of the PEM can be changed via this input pin.
Programming can be either a voltage source or a resistance
divider. The margining pin is connected to 3.3Vdc via a 10kΩ
resistor inside the PEM. See graphs below.

An open circuit on this pin reverts the voltage level back to the
original setting.
Software commanded margining overrides the hardware set
point indefinitely or until the default setting is reinstated for
example if input power and bias power have been removed from
the module.
