Description

The IMX4 Series of board-mountable 4-watt DC-DC converters

has been designed according to the latest industry

requirements and standards. The converters are particularly

suitable for use in mobile or stationary applications in trans-

port, industry, or telecom, where variable input volt ages or high

transient voltages are prevalent.

Covering a total input voltage range from 8.4 VDC up to

121 VDC with three different models, the converters are

available with single or dual output from 3.3 up to ±24 VDC

with flexible load distribution. Features include efficient input

and output filtering with unsurpassed transient and surge

protection, low output ripple and noise, consistently high

efficiency over the entire input voltage range and high

reliability as well as excellent dynamic response to load and

line changes.

The converters exhibit basic insulation and are designed and

built according to the international safety standards IEC/EN

60950-1 2nd Ed. 70IMX4 models are CE-marked.

A special feature is their small case size, DIL 24 with only

8.5 mm profile. The circuit is comprised of integrated planar

magnetics, and all components are automatically assembled

and solidly soldered onto a single PCB without any wire

connection. Thanks to the rigid mechanical design, the

converters withstand an extremely high level of shock and

vibrations. Careful consideration of possible thermal stresses

ensure the absence of hot spots providing long life in

environments where temperature cycles are a reality. The

thermal design allows operation at full load up to an ambient

temperature of 85 °C in free air without using any potting

material.

Several options, such as open-frame or an alternative industrial

pinout, provide a high level of application-specific engineering

and design-in flexibility.

Functional Description

The IMX4 Series converters are feedback-controlled flyback

converters using current mode PWM (Pulse Width

Modulation). The input is protected against transients by

means of a suppressor diode.

The output voltage is monitored by a separate transformer

winding close to the secondary windings and fed back to the

control circuit.

Current limitation is provided by the primary circuit, thus

limiting the total output current (Io nom for single- and the sum

Io1 nom + Io2 nom for dual-output models).

The close magnetic coupling provided by the planar

construction ensures very good regulation and allows for

flexible load distribution on dual-output models.

Input Transient Voltage Protection

In many applications transient voltages on the converter input

are always possible. These may be caused for example by

short circuits between Vi+ and Vi–, where the network

inductance may generate high energy pulses.

In order to protect the converter, a transient voltage sup-

pressor diode is fitted at the input; see table below.

If transients generating currents above the peak pulse current

IPP are possible, an external limiting network such as the circuit

shown in figure 8 is recommended. It provides compliance with

transients according to IEC/EN 61000-4-5, level 2. The comp

onents are specified in table 5.

If 40IMX4 converters should withstand 150 V transients

according to 19Pfl1, the same external circuitry with similar

components as shown in figure 8 can be used.

Fuse and Reverse Polarity Protection

The suppressor diode on the input also protects against

reverse polarity input voltage. An external fast fuse is required

to limit this reverse current; see table below.

Thermal Considerations

If a converter, mounted on a PCB, is located in free, quasi-

stationary air (convection cooling) at the maximum ambient

temperature TA max (see table Temperature specifications)

and is operated at nominal input voltage and output power,

the case temperature TC measured at the measuring point of

case temperature TC (see Mechanical Data) will approach the

indicated value TC max after the warm-up phase. However, the

relationship between TA and TC depends heavily on the

conditions of operation and integration into a system. The

thermal conditions depend on input voltage, output current,

airflow, temperature of surrounding components and surfaces

and the properties of the printed circuit board. TA max is

therefore only an indicative value, and under practical

operating conditions, the ambient temperature TA may be

higher or lower.

Caution: The case temperature TC measured at the measuring

point of case temperature TC (see Mechanical Dat a) may under no

circumstances exceed the specified maximum. The installer must

ensure that under all operating conditions TC remains within the

limits stated in the table Temperature Specifications.

Short Circuit Behavior

The current limitation shuts down the converter, when a short

circuit is applied to the output. It acts self-protecting, and

automatically recovers after removal of the overload condition.

Output Overvoltage Protection

The outputs are protected against overvoltages by Zener

diodes. In the event of an overvoltage, the converter will shut-

down and attempt to restart automatically. The main purpose

of this feature is to protect against possible overvoltages,

which could occur due to a failure in the feedback control

circuit. The converters are not designed to withstand external

overvoltages applied to the outputs.

Connection in Series

The outputs of single or dual-output models can be connected

in series without any precautions, taking into consideration

that the output voltage should remain below 60 V for SELV

operation.

Connection in Parallel

Several converters with equal output voltage can be

connected in parallel and will share their output current quite

equally . However , this may cause st art-up problems and is only

recommended in applications, where one converter is able to

deliver the full load current, e.g., in true redundant systems.

Safety and Installation Instructions

Installation Instruction

Installation of the dc-dc converters must strictly follow the

national safety regulations in compliance with the enclosure,

mounting, creepage, clearance, casualty, markings and

segregation requirements of the end-use application.

Connection to the system shall be made via a printed circuit

board; see Mechanical Data.

The converters should be connected to a secondary circuit.

Do not open the converter.

Ensure that a converter failure does not result in a hazardous

condition.

To prevent excessive current flowing through the input lines in

case of a short-circuit, an external fuse specified in table 6

should be installed in the non-earthed input supply line.

Standards and Approvals

The converters are approved according to UL/CSA 60950-1 and

IEC/EN 60950-1 2nd Edition.

The converters have been evaluated for:

• Building-in

• Basic insulation input to output, based on their maximum

input voltage

• Pollution degree 2 environment

• Connecting the input to a secondary circuit, which is subject

to a maximum transient rating of 1500 V for 20IMX4 and

40IMX4, and 2000 V for 70IMX4 models.

The converters are subject to manufacturing surveillance in

accordance with the above mentioned standards and with ISO

9001:2008.

Railway Applications

To comply with railway standards, all components are coated

with a protective lacquer (except option Z).

Protection Degree and Cleaning Liquids

The protection degree of the converters (except opt. Z) is IP 40

for models with Revision BA (or later). Older models have IP 30.

In order to avoid possible damage, any penetration of cleaning

fluids should be prevented, since the power supplies are not

hermetically sealed.

However, open-frame models (option Z) leave the factory

unlacquered; they may be lacquered by the customer, for

instance together with the mother board. Cleaning agents are

not permitted – except washing at room temperature with

isopropyl alcohol. If necessary, the mother board must be

cleaned, before fitting the open-frame converter.

Note: Cleaning liquids may damage the adhesive joints of the

ferrite cores.

Isolation

The electric strength test is performed in the factory as a routine

test in accordance with EN 50514 and IEC/EN 60950. The

Company will not honor any warranty claims resulting from

incorrectly executed electric strength field tests.

Description of Options

Option K: Alternative Pinout

This pinout is compatible with other converters on the market.

Option Z: Open Frame

For applications, where the protection of the case is not

necessary or in the case that the motherboard should be

cleaned and lacquered with the converter fitted.

Option G: RoHS-6

Converters with a type designation ending with G are RoHS-

compliant for all six substances.
