PFE1500 Series

The PFE1500 Series AC/DC power supply is combination of analog and DSP control, highly efficient front-end power supply. It
incorporates resonance-soft-switching technology and interleaved power trains to reduce component stresses, providing increased
system reliability and very high efficiency. With a wide input operational voltage range and minimal derating of output power with
input voltage and temperature, the PFE1500 power supply maximizes power availability in demanding server, network, and other
high availability applications. The supply is fan cooled and ideally suited for integration with a matching airflow paths. The PFC stage
is an analogue solution; MCU is used to communicate with DSP chip on secondary side. The DC/DC stage uses soft switching
resonant techniques in conjunction with synchronous rectification. An active OR-ing device on the output ensures no reverse load
current and renders the supply ideally suited for operation in redundant power systems. The always-on standby output, provides
power to external power distribution and management controllers. It is protected with an active OR-ing device for maximum
reliability. Status information is provided with front-panel LEDs.
In addition, the power supply can be controlled and the fan speed set via the I2C bus. The I2C bus allows full monitoring of the
supply, including input and output voltage, current, power, and inside temperatures. The fan speed is adjusted automatically
depending on the actual power demand and supply temperature and can be overridden through the I2C bus.

Stresses in excess of the absolute maximum ratings may cause performance degradation, adversely affect long-term reliability, and
cause permanent damage to the supply.

4.1 INPUT FUSE
Quick-acting 16 A input fuse (5 x 20 mm) in series the L line inside the power supply protect against severe defects. The fuses
are not accessible from the outside and are therefore not serviceable parts.
4.2 INRUSH CURRENT
The AC-DC power supply exhibits an X-capacitance of only 3.2
µF,
resulting in a low and short peak current, when the supply
is connected to the mains. The internal bulk capacitor will be charged through an NTC which will limit the inrush current.
NOTE:
Do not repeat plug-in / out operations within a short time, or else the internal in-rush current limiting device (NTC) may
not sufficiently cool down and excessive inrush current or component failure(s) may result.

For PFE1500-12-054NAH, PFE1500-12-054RAH and PFE1500-12NAHS412, normal DC operation input range is 200 VDC to 380 VDC
and Input range is 180 VDC to 400 VDC; input AC range is 90 VAC ~ 264 VAC.
The Front-End is provided with a minimum hysteresis of 3 V during turn-on and turn-off within the ranges.

4.3 INPUT UNDER-VOLTAGE
5
If the sinusoidal input voltage stays below the input under voltage lockout threshold Vi on, the supply will be inhibited. Once the
input voltage returns within the normal operating range, the supply will return to normal operation again.
4.4 POWER FACTOR CORRECTION
Power factor correction (PFC) is achieved by controlling the input current waveform synchronously with the input voltage. An
analog controller is implemented giving outstanding PFC results over a wide input voltage and load ranges. The input current
will follow the shape of the input voltage.
4.5 EFFICIENCY
High efficiency (see
Figure 2
) is achieved by using state-of-the-art silicon power devices in conjunction with soft-transition
topologies minimizing switching losses and a full digital control scheme. Synchronous rectifiers on the output reduce the losses
in the high current output path. The speed of the fan is digitally controlled to keep all components at an optimal operating
temperature regardless of the ambient temperature and load conditions.
