the MHF+ Single and dual Series™ of high frequency dC/
dC converters offers a wide input voltage range of 16 to 40
volts (MHF+281r9S, 20 to 32 volts) and up to 15 watts of
output power. the units are capable of withstanding short
term transients up to 50 volts. the converters are offered with
standard screening, “eS” screening, or fully compliant to “883”
Mil-PrF-38534 Class H screening. Standard microcircuit
drawings (SMd) are available.
DESCRIPTION
MHF+ Single and dual dC/dC ConverterS
enabled when the pin, which is internally connected to a pull-up
resistor, is left unconnected or is connected to an open-collector
gate. the open circuit output voltage associated with the inhibit
pin is 8.5 to 12 v. in the inhibit mode, a maximum of 4 ma must
be sunk from the inhibit pin. See Figure 3.

the MHF+ converters are switching regulators that use a
quasi-square wave, single-ended forward converter design with
a constant switching frequency of 550 kHz typical. isolation
between input and output circuits is provided with a transformer
in the forward path and a temperature compensated optical link
in the feedback control loop. See Figure 1.
For the MHF+ dual output models, good cross regulation is
maintained by tightly coupled output magnetics. up to 90%
of the total output power (80% on 2805d) is available from
either output, providing the opposite output is simultaneously
carrying 10% of the total output power (20% on 2805d models).
Predictable current limit is accomplished by directly monitoring
the output load current and providing a constant current output
above the overload point.
an external synchronization feature is included that allows the
user to adjust the nominally 550 kHz operating frequency to
any frequency within the range of 500 kHz to 600 kHz. this is
initiated by applying a signal input of the desired frequency to
pin 5. the capacitively coupled sync input will synchronize on
a differential signal of as low as 4 volts to as high as 5 v. For
single and dual output models, if the sync function is not used,
connect the terminal to input common.

MHF+ Series single and dual output converters provide short
circuit protection by restricting the output current to approximately
115% of the
full load output current. the output current is sensed in the
secondary stage to provide highly predictable and accurate
current limiting, and to eliminate foldback characteristics.

undervoltage lockout prevents the single and dual output
converters from operating below approximately 14 vdC input
voltage to keep system current levels smooth, especially during
initialization or re-start operations.

MHF+ SerieS™ triPle dC/dC ConverterS
MHF+ Series™ triple dC/dC converters provide a wide input
voltage range of 16 to 48 vdC delivering 15 watts of total output
power with output voltages of +5 and ±12 or +5 and ±15 vdC.
the main output, +5 vdC, will supply up to 7.5 watts and the
auxiliaries will supply up to 7.5 watts of combined power. Full
power operation at -55° C to +125° C plus the ability to withstand
transients of up to 80 v for up to 120 milliseconds make these
converters an ideal choice for your high reliability systems.

the soft-start feature provides a controlled 25 milliseconds

esign
MHF+ triple Series of dC/dC converters incorporate dual-phase,
phase-shifted technology with a continuous flyback topology.
this design eliminates a minimum load requirement on the main
output and eliminates cross regulation effects between the main
output voltage and auxiliary output voltages. See Figure 2.
the phase-shifted design offers reduced input and output ripple.
to meet Mil-Std-461 requirements use an eMi filter, see Figure
5. FMH-461 is the recommended filter.
to synchronize the converter’s switching frequency to a system
clock apply the clock signal to the sync terminal (pin 7). When
multiple converters are powered from a single power source,
asynchronous (free run) operation will result in lower peak
noise for common spectral peaks, but synchronous operation
will eliminate any possibility of interference frequencies in the
low audio band. Source impedance of the signal should be
less than 100 ohms and the transition time should be less than
100 nanoseconds. the capacitively coupled sync input will
synchronize on a differential signal of as low as 4 volts to as high
as 5 v. For triple output models, if the sync function is not used,
the terminal should be left open. See Figure 4.

unCtion
an open collector inhibit terminal (pin 1) provides shut-down and
start-up control. applying an active low of <0.8 v, referenced to
input common, will disable the output of the converter. When
inhibited, input current is reduced to 5 ma or less and there is no
generation of switching noise. the inhibit terminal typically sinks
3 ma when the converter is inhibited.
leaving the terminal open or pulling it high will enable the
converter. use an open collector interface for active high voltages
of up to 11 volts. (refer to Figure 2 for a connection diagram.)
an open collector interface is not required if the active high is in
excess of the open circuit voltage of the inhibit terminal (11 volts)
but less than 40 volts. See Figure 2.

roteCtion
on the triple output models, internal current limiting circuitry
protects on all three outputs against short circuits. When output
power exceeds approximately 130% of maximum output power,
the output currents are limited. in addition, separate current
limiting circuitry protects each output individually resulting in
normal operation of either the main or the auxiliaries, whichever
is not in a shorted condition.
