characteristics and offers greater reliability and
radiation tolerance than devices incorporating
optical feedback circuits.
Manufactured in a facility fully qualified to MIL-PRF-
38534, these converters are available in four
screening grades to satisfy a wide range of
requirements. The CH grade is fully compliant to
the requirements of MIL-PRF-38534 for class H.
The HB grade is processed and screened to the
class H requirement, but may not necessarily meet
all of the other MIL-PRF-38534 requirements, e.g.,
element evaluation and Periodic Inspection (P.I.)
not required. Both grades are tested to meet the
complete group "A" test specification over the full
military temperature range without output power
deration. Two grades with more limited screening
are also available for use in less demanding
applications. Variations in electrical, mechanical
and screening can be accommodated. Contact
Lambda Advanced Analog for special requirements.

Notes:
1/ Recovery time is measured from the initiation of the transient to where V
OUT
has returned to within ±1 percent of V
OUT
at 50 percent load.
2/ Turn on delay time measurement is for either a step application of power at the input or the removal of a ground signal from the inhibit pin (pin 2) while power is applied to the
input.
3/ An overload is that condition with a load in excess of the rated load but less than that necessary to trigger the short circuit protection and is the condition of maximum
power dissipation.
4/ Total power at both outputs. For operation at 16 V dc input, derate output power by 33 percent.
5/ Input step transition time between 2 and 10 microseconds.
6/ Capacitive load may be any value from 0 to the maximum limit without compromising dc performance. A capacitive load in excess of the maximum limit will not
disturb loop stability but may interfere with the operation of the load fault detection circuitry, appearing as a short circuit during turn on.
7/ Load step transition time between 2 and 10 microseconds.
8/ Bandwidth guaranteed by design. Tested for 20 KHz to 2 MHz.
9/ Tested at each output.
10/ When operating with unbalanced loads, at least 25 percent of the load must be on the positive output to maintain regulation.
11/ Parameter guaranteed by line and load regulation tests.
12/ Parameter shall be tested as part of design characterization and after design or process changes. Thereafter parameters shall be guaranteed to the limits specified in Table I.
