‘Hi Pot Test’, ‘Flash Tested’, ‘Withstand Voltage’, ‘Proof Voltage’, ‘Dielectric Withstand Voltage’ & ‘Isolation Test Voltage’ are all terms that relate to the same thing, a test voltage,
applied for a specified time, across a component designed to provide electrical isolation, to verify the integrity of that isolation.
Murata Power Solutions MGJ6 series of DC-DC converters are all 100% production tested at 5.7kVDC for 1 second and have been qualification tested at 5.7kVDC for 1 minute.
A question commonly asked is, “What is the continuous voltage that can be applied across the part in normal operation?”
When the insulation in the MGJ6 series is not used as a safety barrier , i.e. provides functional isolation only, continuous or switched voltages across the barrier up to 3kV are
sustainable. Long term reliability testing at these voltages continues. Peak Inception voltages measured were in excess of 3.5kV when testing for partial discharge in accordance
with IEC 60270. Please contact Murata for further information.
The MGJ6 series has been recognised by Underwriters Laboratory to 250 Vrms Reinforced Insulation, please see safety approval section below.
REPEATED HIGH-VOLTAGE ISOLATION TESTING
It is well known that repeated high-voltage isolation testing of a barrier component can actually degrade isolation capability, to a lesser or greater degree depending on materials,
construction and environment. We therefore strongly advise against repeated high voltage isolation testing, but if it is absolutely required, that the voltage be reduced by 20% from
specified test voltage.
SAFETY APPROVAL
ANSI/AAMI ES60601-1
The MGJ6 series has been recognised by Underwriters Laboratory (UL) to ANSI/AAMI ES60601-1 and provides 2 MOPP (Means Of Patient Protection) based upon a working voltage
of 250 Vrms max., between Primary and Secondary.
UL 60950
The MGJ6 series has been recognised by Underwriters Laboratory (UL) to UL 60950 for reinforced insulation to a working voltage of 250Vrms with a maximum measured product
operating temperature of 130°C.
Creepage and clearance 8mm.
FUSING
The MGJ6 Series of converters are not internally fused so to meet the requirements of UL an anti-surge input line fuse should always be used with ratings as defined below.
Input Voltage, 5V 4A
Input Voltage,12V 2A
Input Voltage,15V 1A
All fuses should be UL recognised, 125V rated.
CHARACTERISATION TEST METHODS
Ripple & Noise Characterisation Method
Ripple and noise measurements are performed with the following test configuration.
C1
1μF X7R multilayer ceramic capacitor, voltage rating to be a minimum of 3 times the output voltage of the DC-DC converter
10μF tantalum capacitor, voltage rating to be a minimum of 1.5 times the output voltage of the DC-DC converter with an ESR of less
C2
than 100mΩ at 100 kHz
C3
100nF multilayer ceramic capacitor, general purpose
R1
450Ω resistor, carbon film, ±1% tolerance
R2
50Ω BNC termination
T1
3T of the coax cable through a ferrite toroid
RLOAD
Resistive load to the maximum power rating of the DC-DC converter. Connections should be made via twisted wires
Measured values are multiplied by 10 to obtain the specified values.
