Technical Reference Notes Hercules (AEH/ALH60) Open Frame or HS Adapted AEH60F48 /ALH60F48 Isolated DC/DC Converter Module Industry Standard 1/2 Brick - 36-75V Input, 3.3V / 60A Output The AEH60F48 / ALH60F48 is part of Astec's New Ultra High Density 1/2 Brick family capable of running 60Amps at 3.3V output. With Efficiencies up to 92% typical at 3.3V - 60Amps, this product provides a 1% to 2% performance increase in efficiency over the leading 60Amp competitors and up to 10% higher output current. The operating temperature range (40C to 85C for the ALH; -40C to 100C baseplate for AEH) assures maximum application flexibility. New singleoutput models feature superior transient response with excellent stability in high capacitance/low ESR load applications. This family has an effective thermal adapter plate which allows for heat sinking under particularly harsh conditions. Without the adapter plate (ALH60) provides a very effective low profile which performs extremely well in convection cooled applications.

These modules provide basic insulation and 1500V isolation with very high output current capability in an industry standard half size module. Operating from 36 to 75V input, they have standard features such as remote sense, trim, OVP, OCP and OTP. AEH60 series devices will accept industry standard heat sinks to enhance thermal performance in applications with conductive cooling. Remote Sense (+Sense, -Sense) Connect the + Sense and - Sense pins close to the load to allow the module to compensate for the voltage drop across conductors carrying high load current. If remote sense is not required (for example if the load is close to the module) the sense pins should be connected to the corresponding output pins. Maximum voltage drop compensation is 10% Vout. It is important to avoid introducing lumped inductance or capacitance into the remote path. Do not connect remote sense lines "beyond" any external output filter stages used with the module. Trim Function Output voltage adjustment is accomplished by connecting an external resistor between the Trim Pin and either the +Sense or -Sense Pins. To adjust Vo to a higher value, please refer to Figure 3. An external resistor, Radj_up should be connected between the Trim Pin and the +Sense Pin. From Equation (1), Radj_up resistor can be determined for the required output voltage increment. Equation (1) Radj_up = Vo*(100 + %Vo,adj) 1.225*%Vo,adj 100+ 2%Vo,adj %Vo,adj where: Radj_up - in k %Vo, adj - percent change in output voltage kohm Figure 3. Radj_up Setup to increase Output Voltage To adjust Vo to a lower value, please refer to Figure 4. An external resistor, Radj_down should be connected between the Trim Pin and the -Sense Pin.

This control loop has a higher voltage set point than the main circuit. In a fault condition, the converter latches which ensures that the output voltage does not exceed VO,CLAMP,max. The converter will operate back normally once the fault is removed and the input voltage is cycled or the enable pin is toggled. Output Over Current Protection To provide protection in an output overload or short circuit condition, the converter is equipped with current limiting circuitry and can endure fault conditions for an unlimited duration. At the point of current-limit inception, the converter latches, causing the output current to be limited both in peak and duration. The converter will operate back normally once the overload/ fault is removed and the input voltage is cycled or the enable pin is toggled. Enable Function Two enable options are available. Positive Logic Enable (no suffix required in part number) and Negative Logic Enable (suffix "N"). Positive Logic Enable turns the converter on during a logic-high voltage on the enable pin, and off during a logic-low. Negative Logic Enable turns the converter off during a logic-high and on during a logic-low.

SHEET 11 OF 21 Technical Reference Notes (AEH60/ALH60F48) Input Filter for FCC Class B Conducted Noise A reference design for an input filter that can provide FCC Class B conducted noise levels is shown below (See Figure 13). Two common mode connected inductors are used in the circuit along with balanced bypass capacitors to shunt common mode currents into the ground plane. Shunting noise current back to the converter reduces the amount of energy reaching the input LISN for measurement. The application circuit shown has an earth ground (frame ground) connected to the converter output (-) terminal. Such a configuration is common practice to accommodate safety agency requirements. Grounding an output terminal results in much higher conducted emissions as measured at the input LISN because a hard path for common mode current back to the LISN is created by the frame ground. "Floating" loads generally result in much lower measured emissions. The electrical equivalent of a floating load, for EMI measurement purposes, can be created by grounding the converter output (load) through a suitably sized inductor(s) while maintaining the necessary safety bonding. Also shown is a sketch of a PCB layout used to achieve Class B conducted noise levels (See Figure 14). It is important to avoid extending the ground plane or any other conductors under the inductors (particularly L2) because capacitive coupling to that track or plane can effectively bypass the inductor and degrade high frequency performance of the filter.

Sufficient cooling should be provided to help ensure reliable operation of either device. Heat generating components are thermally coupled to the adapter where heat energy is removed by conduction, convection, and radiation to the surrounding environment. Heat sinks can provide enhanced output performance as shown below. Proper cooling can be verified by measuring the case temperature (Center of adapter plate/baseplate). HEAT TRANSFER CHARACTERISTICS Increasing airflow over the converter enhances heat transfer via convection. Figure 16 shows worse case maximum power that can be dissipated by the converter, without exceeding the maximum adapter plate temperature, versus local ambient temperature (TA) for natural convection through 2.0 m/s (400 ft/min). Figure 17 shows actual maximum power that can be dissipated through both the adapter plate and through the output pins (unit soldered into a 4" square copper plane (2 Oz.) or equivalent).

These curves can be used to predict which heat sink will be needed for a particular environment. As an illustration, let's refer to below application requirement: An application requires 45 Amps of 3.3V in a 55 C environment with airflow of 1.0 m/s (200 ft/min); the minimum heat sink required can be determined through Equation (3). Equation (3) where: TC, MAX TA PD = = = = (TC, MAX - TA) / PD Module's Total Thermal Resistance Case Temperature (100 C) Ambient Temperature (55 C) Power Dissipation (15W) From Figure 18, the power dissipation for a 45A-load requirement can be determined (PD = 15W). Through Equation (3), the Thermal Resistance can be calculated to be at 3.0 C/W. Based on Figure 19, the 1/4" HS (heatsink), or greater, will be able to handle the required 45A-load at 55 C environment and with 1.0 m/s (200 ft/min) airflow.

ALH60 - open-frame outline drawing (bottom view) SOLDERING CONSIDERATIONS The AEH/ALH series converters are compatible with standard wave soldering techniques. When wave soldering, the converter pins should be preheated for 20-30 seconds at 110 C and wave soldered at 260 C for less than 10 seconds. When hand soldering, the iron temperature should be maintained at 425C and applied to the converter pins for less than 5 seconds. Longer exposure can cause internal damage to the converter. Cleaning can be performed with cleaning solvent IPA or with water.
