The Standard Triple HE DC/DC converter provides three
regulated low voltage DC outputs at high efciency
and low cost. The unit has feedback from the +5 Vdc
output. The auxiliary outputs are cross regulated to the
main feedback loop (reference the block diagram). The
Standard Triple HE meets rigorous requirements in an
industry standard case size and is well suited for most
telecommunication applications.
The Standard Triple HE includes primary remote
on/off control plus threaded-through holes to allow
easy mounting or the addition of a heat sink for high
temperature use.
Description
The output currents are the maximum ratings of each of the outputs. It is up to the user to
ensure that the total power output is below 75 Watts.
Default ON/OFF logic is positive.
Add -N to the model number to order negative ON/OFF logic.
To order RoHS, add (RoHS) to part number.

Unless otherwise stated, these specications apply for baseplate temperature TB=23±2ºC, nominal input voltage, and rated typ load. (1)
Notes:
(1) Refer to the CALEX Application Notes for the denition of terms,
measurement circuits, and other information.
(2) These units are not fused and need to be fused by the user. Refer
to the CALEX Application Notes for information of fusing. For inrush
current, refer to the specications above.
(3) 33µF capacitor connected between the two “Input” pins. Then insert
current sensor in series with 12µH inductor between 33µF and the
source. The reected ripple current is measured over a 5 Hz to 20
MHz bandwidth. Noise should be minimized in the measurement.
(4) Noise is measured per the CALEX Application Notes. Output noise
is measured with a 10µH tantalum capacitor in parallel with a 0.1 µF
ceramic capacitor connected across the output to CMN. Measurement
bandwidth is 0-20MHz.
(5) Optimum performance is obtained when this power supply is operated
within the minimum to maximum load specications. No damage to
module will occur, when the output is operated at less than minimum
load, but the output voltage may contain a low frequency component
that may exceed output noise specications. Total output power must
not exceed 75W.
(6) Load Transient Recovery Time is dened as the time for the output
to settle from a 50% to 75% or 25% step load change to a 1% error
band (rise time of step = 2µs).
(7) Load Transient Overshoot is dened as the peak overshoot during a
transient as dened in the Note 6 above.
(8) Load regulation is dened as the output voltage change when
simultaneously changing all outputs from typ. to min load and noting
the change. The voltage is measured at the output pin.
(9) Cross regulation is dened as the change in one output (set at 70%
of maximum load) when only one of the other outputs is changed for
70% of maximum to 20% of maximum load.
(10) Most switches would be suitable for the logic ON/OFF control. In
case there is a problem you can make the following estimations and
then leave some margin.
When open collector is used for logic high, “Open Circuit Voltage at
ON/OFF Pin”, “Output Resistance” and “External Leakage Current
Allowed for Logic High” are used to estimate the high impedance
requirement of open collector.
When switch is used for logic low, “Open Circuit Voltage at ON/
OFF Pin”, “Output Resistance” and “LOW Logic Level” are used to
estimate the low impedance requirement of the switch.

(11) Thermal impedance is tested with the converter mounted
vertically and facing another printed circuit board 1/2 inch away.
If converter is mounted horizontally with no obstruction, thermal
impedance is approximately 7°C/W.
(12) Minimum load is dened as 10% of maximum load. Calex Mfg.
Co. Inc. does not guarantee performance for loads less than the
minimum. Loads less than the minimum shall not damage the
unit.
(13) The unit can be congured with negative logic for Remote ON/
OFF.
(14) When an external On/Off switch is used, such as open collector
switch, logic high requires the switch to be high-impedance.
Switch leakage currents greater than 10µA may be sufcient to
trigger the ON/OFF to the logic-low state.
(15) When using the trim function, the user should remember that all
three voltages will go up or down at the same time.
(16) Water Washability - Calex DC/DC converters are designed
to withstand most solder/wash processes. Careful attention
should be used when assessing the applicability in your specic
manufacturing process. Converters are not hermetically sealed.
(17) Torque fasteners into threaded mounting inserts at 12 in. oz. or
less. Greater torque may result in damage to unit and void the
warranty.
(18) RoHS Compliance:
See Calex Website www.calex.com/RoHS.html for the complete
RoHS Compliance statement.
The RoHS marking is as follows.
