These modules provide a precisely regulated output voltage programmable TM via external resistor from 0.75Vdc to 3.3Vdc over a wide range of input voltage (VIN = 2.4 – 5.5Vdc). Austin SuperLynx II TM has a sequencing feature, EZ-SEQUENCE that enable designers to implement various types of output voltage sequencing when powering multiple modules on board. Their open-frame construction and small footprint enable designers to develop cost- and space-efficient solutions. In addition to sequencing, standard features include remote On/Off, remote sense, programmable output voltage, over current and over temperature protection. * UL is a registered trademark of Underwriters Laboratories, Inc. † CSA is a registered trademark of Canadian Standards Association. ‡ VDE is a trademark of Verband Deutscher Elektrotechniker e.V. ** ISO is a registered trademark of the International Organization of Standards January 14, 2016 ©2016 General Electric Company.

To preserve maximum flexibility, internal fusing is not included, however, to achieve maximum safety and system protection, always use an input line fuse. The safety agencies require a 20A, fast-acting, glass type fuse rated for 32V (see Safety Considerations section). Based on the information provided in this data sheet on inrush energy and maximum dc input current, the same type of fuse with a lower rating can be used.

However, additional output filtering may be required by the system designer for a number For the converter output to be considered meeting the of reasons. First, there may be a need to further reduce the requirements of safety extra-low voltage (SELV), the input must output ripple and noise of the module. Second, the dynamic meet SELV requirements. The power module has extra-low response characteristics may need to be customized to a voltage (ELV) outputs when all inputs are ELV. particular load step change. The input to these units is to be provided with a fast-acting fuse with a maximum rating of 20A in the positive input lead. To reduce the output ripple and improve the dynamic response to a step load change, additional capacitance at the output can be used. Low ESR polymer and ceramic capacitors are recommended to improve the dynamic response of the module. For stable operation of the module, limit the capacitance to less than the maximum output capacitance as specified in the electrical specification table.

Two On/Off logic options are ON/OFF TM available in the Austin SuperLynx II series modules. Positive + PWM Enable Logic On/Off signal, device code suffix “4”, turns the module ON V ON/OFF R1 during a logic High on the On/Off pin and turns the module OFF during a logic Low. Negative logic On/Off signal, no device code suffix, turns the module OFF during logic High and turns Q2 CSS Q1 the module ON during logic Low. R2 For positive logic modules, the circuit configuration for using the On/Off pin is shown in Figure 28. The On/Off pin is an open GND _ collector/drain logic input signal (Von/Off) that is referenced to ground. During a logic-high (On/Off pin is pulled high internal Figure 29. Circuit configuration for using negative logic to the module) when the transistor Q1 is in the Off state, the On/OFF power module is ON. Maximum allowable leakage current of the transistor when Von/off = V is 10µA. Applying a logic- IN,max low when the transistor Q1 is turned-On, the power module is Overcurrent Protection OFF.

The unit will shutdown if the thermal reference point Tref, o exceeds 125 C (typical), but the thermal shutdown is not For negative logic On/Off devices, the circuit configuration is intended as a guarantee that the unit will survive temperatures shown is Figure 29.

When cools down. transistor Q1 is in the Off state, logic High is applied to the On/Off pin and the power module is Off. The minimum On/off voltage for logic High on the On/Off pin is 1.5Vdc.

Make sure that the maximum Feature Descriptions (continued) output power of the module remains at or below the maximum Voltage Sequencing rated power. When the Remote Sense feature is not being used, connect the Remote Sense pin to the output pin. TM Austin SuperLynx II series of modules include a sequencing feature, EZ-SEQUENCE that enables users to implement various types of output voltage sequencing in their applications. This is R R R R distribution contact contact distribution VIN(+) VO accomplished via an additional sequencing pin. When not using the sequencing feature, either tie the SEQ pin to VIN or Sense leave it unconnected. R LOAD When an analog voltage is applied to the SEQ pin, the output R R R R distribution contact contact distribution COM COM voltage tracks this voltage until the output reaches the set- point voltage. The SEQ voltage must be set higher than the set-point voltage of the module. The output voltage follows the Figure 32. Remote sense circuit configuration voltage on the SEQ pin on a one-to-one volt basis. By connecting multiple modules together, customers can get multiple modules to track their output voltages to the voltage applied on the SEQ pin. For proper voltage sequencing, first, input voltage is applied to the module. The On/Off pin of the module is left unconnected (or tied to GND for negative logic modules or tied to VIN for positive logic modules) so that the module is ON by default. After applying input voltage to the module, a minimum of 10msec delay is required before applying voltage on the SEQ pin. During this time, potential of 50mV (± 10 mV) is maintained on the SEQ pin. After 10msec delay, an analog voltage is applied to the SEQ pin and the output voltage of the module will track this voltage on a one-to-one volt bases until output reaches the set-point voltage. To initiate simultaneous shutdown of the modules, the SEQ pin voltage is lowered in a controlled manner. Output voltage of the modules tracks the voltages below their set-point voltages on a one-to-one basis. A valid input voltage must be maintained until the tracking and output voltages reach ground potential. TM When using the EZ-SEQUENCE feature to control start-up of the module, pre-bias immunity feature during start-up is disabled. The pre-bias immunity feature of the module relies on the module being in the diode-mode during start-up. When TM using the EZ-SEQUENCE feature, modules goes through an internal set-up time of 10msec, and will be in synchronous rectification mode when voltage at the SEQ pin is applied. This will result in sinking current in the module if pre-bias voltage is present at the output of the module. When pre-bias immunity TM during start-up is required, the EZ-SEQUENCE feature must be disabled. For additional guidelines on using EZ- TM TM SEQUENCE feature of Austin SuperLynx II, contact the GE technical representative for preliminary application note on output voltage sequencing using Austin Lynx II series. Remote Sense TM The Austin SuperLynx SIP power modules have a Remote Sense feature to minimize the effects of distribution losses by regulating the voltage at the Remote Sense pin (See Figure 32). The voltage between the Sense pin and Vo pin must not exceed 0.5V. The amount of power delivered by the module is defined as the output voltage multiplied by the output current (Vo x Io). When using Remote Sense, the output voltage of the module can Thermal Considerations increase, which if the same output is maintained, increases the January 14, 2016 ©2016 General Electric Company.

Wind Tunnel (1.0) Considerations include ambient temperature, airflow, module PWBs power dissipation, and the need for increased reliability. A Power Module reduction in the operating temperature of the module will result in an increase in reliability.

The result of inadequate cleaning and drying can affect both the reliability of a power module and the testability of the finished circuit-board assembly. For guidance on appropriate soldering, cleaning and drying procedures, refer to Board Mounted Power Modules: Soldering and Cleaning Application Note. Through-Hole Lead-Free Soldering Information The RoHS-compliant through-hole products use the SAC (Sn/Ag/Cu) Pb-free solder and RoHS-compliant components. They are designed to be processed through single or dual wave soldering machines. The pins have an RoHS-compliant finish that is compatible with both Pb and Pb-free wave soldering processes. A maximum preheat rate of 3°C/s is suggested. The wave preheat process should be such that the temperature of the power module board is kept below 210°C. For Pb solder, the recommended pot temperature is 260°C, while the Pb-free solder pot is 270°C max. Not all RoHS-compliant through-hole products can be processed with paste-through-hole Pb or Pb- free reflow process.
