PRODUCT OVERVIEW
Wide range 4:1 inputs on the 0.92" x 1.92" x 0.35"
converter are either 9 to 36 Volts DC (Q12 models)
or 18 to 75 Volts DC (Q48 models), ideal for
battery-powered and telecom equipment. Fixed
output voltages from 3.3 VDC to 15 VDC are tightly
regulated and may be trimmed within ±10%
of nominal output. Applications include small
instruments, computer-based systems, data com-
munications equipment, remote sensor systems,
vehicle and portable electronics.
The UEI 30W Series includes full magnetic
and optical isolation up to 2250 Volts DC (basic
insulation), Q48 models. For connection to digital
systems, the outputs offer fast settling to current
step loads and tolerance of higher capacitive
loads. Excellent ripple and noise specifications
assure compatibility to circuits using CPU’s, ASIC’s,
SIMPLIFIED SCHEMATIC
programmable logic and FPGA’s. No minimum
load is required. For systems requiring controlled
startup/shutdown, an external switch, transistor
or digital logic may be used to activate the remote
On/Off control.
A wealth of self-protection features avoid both
converter and external circuit problems. These
include input undervoltage lockout and overtem-
perature shutdown. The outputs current limit using
the “hiccup” autorestart technique and the outputs
may be short-circuited indefinitely. Additional
features include output overvoltage and reverse
conduction elimination.
The synchronous rectifier forward topology
offers high efficiency for minimal heat buildup
and “no fan” operation.

Absolute Maximum Ratings
Absolute maximums are stress ratings. Exposure of devices to
greater than any of these conditions may adversely affect long-term
reliability. Proper operation under conditions other than those listed
in the Performance/Functional Specifications Table is not implied nor
recommended.
Maximum Ratings Notes
The transient specifications indicate that sample lots were success-
fully tested for 100 mS at the transient stress voltage and were not
damaged. As a practical matter in your application, it is often difficult
to determine how long an input overvoltage was applied. Therefore,
do not exceed the continuous voltage rating.

capacitance can retard transient response or possibly cause instability. Low ESR ceramic capacitors
may degrade dynamic performance. Be sure to thoroughly test your system under full load with all
components installed.
(9) All models are fully operational and meet published specifications, including “cold start” at –40°C.
(10) Regulation specifications describe the deviation as the line input voltage or output load current is
varied from a nominal midpoint value to either extreme.
(11) The output overvoltage protection is automatic recovery. The overvoltage may occur either from
internal failure or from an external forcing voltage as in a shared power system.
(12) Output overvoltage and short circuit protection is non-latching. When the overvoltage fault is
removed, the converter will immediately recover. After an output overcurrent or short circuit, “hiccup”
operation repeatedly attempts to restart the converter with a brief, full-current output. If the overcur-
rent condition still exists, the restart current will be removed and then tried again. This short current
pulse prevents overheating and damaging the converter. Once the fault is removed, the converter
immediately resumes normal operation.
(13) Do not exceed maximum power specifications when adjusting the output trim.
(14) At zero output current, the output may contain low frequency components which exceed the
ripple specification. The output may be operated indefinitely with no load.
(15) If reverse polarity is accidentally applied to the input, to ensure reverse input protection with full
output load, always connect an external input
fuse
in series with the +Vin input. Use approximately
twice the full input current rating with nominal input voltage.
CAUTION:
This product is not internally fused. To comply with safety agency certifications and to
avoid injury to personnel or equipment, the user
must
connect an external fast-blow fuse to the input
terminals. See fuse information.

Specification Notes:
(1) All models are tested and specified with external 1 μF and 10 μF parallel output capacitors and a
22 μF external input capacitor. All capacitors are low ESR types. These capacitors are necessary to
accommodate our test equipment and may not be required to achieve specified performance in your
applications. All models are stable and regulate within spec under no-load conditions.
All specifications are typical unless noted. General conditions for Specifications are +25 deg.C,
Vin=nominal, Vout=nominal, full load. Adequate airflow must be supplied for extended testing under
power.
(2) Input Back Ripple Current is tested and specified over a 5 Hz to 20 MHz bandwidth. Input filtering
is Cin=33 μF, 100V, Cbus=220 μF, 100V, Lbus=12 μH.
(3) Note that Maximum Power Derating curves indicate an
average
current at nominal input voltage.
At higher temperatures and/or lower airflow, the DC/DC converter will tolerate brief full current
outputs if the total RMS current over time does not exceed the Derating curve. All Derating curves
are presented at sea level altitude. Be aware of reduced power dissipation with increasing density
altitude.
(4) Refer to page 10 for MTBF values.
(5) The On/Off Control is normally selected by a switch or an open collector or open drain transistor.
But it may also be driven with external logic or by applying appropriate external voltages which are
referenced to Input Common and do not exceed the On/Off voltage specifications.
(6) Output current limiting begins when the output voltage degrades approximately 2% from the
selected setting.
(7) The outputs are not intended to sink appreciable reverse current.
(8) Output noise may be further reduced by adding an external filter. Low voltage logic circuits may
have a small voltage margin between logic ZERO and logic ONE, requiring noise suppression.
Use
only as much output filtering as needed
to achieve your noise requirements. Excessive output
