Figure 1. Simplifi ed Schematic
Typical topology is shown
Among the three families of triple-output DC/DC
converters in DATEL’s new A-Series, the 8-11W, 2"
x 1" devices stand out as the industry’s small-
est full-featured triples. Housed in miniature 2"
x 1" x 0.375", 5-side shielded, metal packages
with electrically non-conductive coatings, these
power converters offer non-latching output current
limiting, input overvoltage shutdown (except D5A
models), input reverse-polarity protection, and
output overvoltage clamping to protect both the
power converters and their loads.
As members of DATEL’s new A-Series, the
8-11W triples feature both low cost and outstand-
ing long-term reliability. Their design combines
straightforward circuit topologies, the newest
components, proven SMT-on-pcb construction
methods, and highly repeatable automatic-
assembly techniques. Their superior durability is
substantiated by a rigorous in-house qualifi cation
program that includes HALT (Highly Accelerated Life
Testing).
Each of these fully line and load-regulated
switching DC/DC converters has a +5V primary
output (with output current as high as 1A) and
either ±12V or ±15V auxiliary outputs (with cur-
rents as high as ±210mA). These devices were
designed to power small analog/digital partitions in
equipment employing distributed-power archi-
tectures with bus voltages between 4.7 and 72
Volts. Applications include computer/networking,
telecom/datacom equipment, industrial instrumen-
tation and automatic test equipment.

TECHNICAL NOTES
Filtering and Noise Reduction
All A-Series TWR 8-11 Watt DC/DC Converters achieve their rated ripple and
noise specifi cations without the use of external input/ output capacitors. In
critical applications, input/output ripple and noise may be further reduced by
installing electrolytic capacitors across the input terminals and/or low-ESR
tantalum or electrolytic capacitors across the output terminals. Output capaci-
tors should be connected between their respective output pin (pin 4, 5 or 7)
and Common (pin 6) as shown in Figure 2. The caps should be located as close
to the power converters as possible. Typical values are listed below. In many
applications, using values greater than those listed will yield better results.
To Reduce Input Ripple
"D5A" Models 47μF, 10V
"D12A" Models 20μF, 25V
"D24A" Models 20μF, 50V
"D48A" Models 10μF, 100V
To Reduce Output Ripple
+5V Output 47μF, 10V, Low ESR
±12/15V Outputs 22μF, 20V, Low ESR
In critical, space-sensitive applications, DATEL may be able to tailor the internal
input/output fi ltering of these units to meet your specifi c requirements. Contact
our Applications Engineering Group for additional details.

Input Fusing
Certain applications and/or safety agencies may require the installation of
fuses at the inputs of power conversion components. For DATEL A-Series TWR
8-11 Watt DC/DC Converters, you should use slow-blow type fuses with values
no greater than 3A.
DATEL’s world-class design, development and manufacturing team stands
ready to work with you to deliver the exact power converter you need for your
demanding, large volume, OEM applications. And ... we’ll do it on time and
within budget!
Our experienced applications and design staffs; quick-turn prototype capabil-
ity; highly automated, SMT assembly facilities; and in-line SPC quality-control
techniques combine to give us the unique ability to design and deliver any
quantity of power converters to the highest standards of quality and reliability.
We have compiled a large library of DC/DC designs that are currently used
in a variety of telecom, medical, computer, railway, aerospace and industrial
applications. We may already have the converter you need.
Contact us. Our goal is to provide you the highest-quality, most cost-effective
power converters available.
If you’re designing with EMC in mind, please note that all of DATEL’s TWR 8-11
Watt A-Series DC/DC Converters have been characterized for radiated and
conducted emissions in our new EMI/ EMC laboratory. Testing is conducted in
an EMCO 5305 GTEM test cell utilizing EMCO automated EMC test software.
Radiated emissions are tested to the limits of FCC Part 15, Class B and CISPR
22 (EN 55022), Class B. Correlation to other specifi cations can be supplied
upon request. Radiated emissions plots to FCC and CISPR 22 for model TWR-
5/1000-12/125-D5A appear below. Published EMC test reports are available
for each model number. Contact DATEL’s Applications Engineering Department

Quality and Reliability
The A-Series are the fi rst DC/DC Converters to emerge from DATEL’s new, com-
pany-wide approach to designing and manufacturing the most reliable power
converters available. The fi ve-pronged program draws our Quality Assurance
function into all aspects of new-product design, development, characterization,
qualifi cation and manufacturing.

Design for Reliability
Design for Reliability is woven throughout our multi-phased, new-productde-
velopment process. Design-for-reliability practices are fully documented and
begin early in the new-product development cycle with the following goals:
1. To work from an approved components/vendors list ensuring the use of reli-
able components and the rigorous qualifi cation of new components.
2. To design with safety margins by adhering to a strict set of derating guide-
lines and performing theoretical worst-case analyses.
3. To locate potential design weaknesses early in the product-development
cycle by using extensive HALT (Highly Accelerated Life Testing).
4. To prove that early design improvements are effective by employing a thor-
ough FRACA (Failure Reporting Analysis and Corrective Action) system.
HALT Testing
The goal of the accelerated-stress techniques used by DATEL is to force device
maturity, in a short period of time, by exposing devices to excessive levels
of "every stimulus of potential value." We use HALT (Highly Accelerated Life
Testing) repeatedly during the design and early manufacturing phases to detect
potential electrical and mechanical design weaknesses that could result in
possible future fi eld failures.
During HALT, prototype and pre-production DC/DC converters are subjected to
progressively higher stress levels induced by thermal cycling, rate of tempera-
ture change, vibration, power cycling, product-specifi c stresses (such as dc
voltage variation) and combined environments. The stresses are not meant
to simulate fi eld environments but to expose any weaknesses in a product’s
electro/mechanical design and/or assembly processes. The goal of HALT is to
make products fail so that device weaknesses can be analyzed and strength-
ened as appropriate. Applied stresses are continually stepped up until products
eventually fail. After corrective actions and/or design changes, stresses are
stepped up again and the cycle is repeated until the "fundamental limit of the
technology" is determined.
DATEL has invested in a Qualmark OVS-1 HALT tester capable of applying
voltage and temperature extremes as well as 6-axis, linear and rotational,
random vibration. A typical HALT profi le (shown above) consists of thermal
cycling (–55 to +125°C, 30°C/minute) and simultaneous, gradually increas-
ing, random longitudinal and rotational vibration up to 20G’s with load cycling
and applied-voltage extremes added as desired. Many devices in DATEL’s new
A-Series could not be made to fail prior to reaching either the limits of the HALT
chamber or some previously known physical limit of the device. We also use
the HALT chamber and its ability to rapidly cool devices to verify their "cold-
start" capabilities.
Qualifi cation
For each new product, electrical performance is verifi ed via a comprehensive
characterization process and long-term reliability is confi rmed via a rigorous
qualifi cation procedure. The qual procedure includes such strenuous tests as
thermal shock and 500 hour life. Qual testing is summarized below.
