Safety Approvals
Design for Environment
Meets requirements in high-temperature
lead-free soldering processes.
The PKG series of DC/DC converters are members of the
EriPower™ range of DC/DC converters for distributed
power architectures in 48/60 VDC power systems. They
provide up to 60W in single and dual output versions.
The PKG units can be used as on-board distributed power
modules, or serve as building blocks for more centralized
power boards. The high efficiency makes it possible to
operate over a wide temperature range without any extra
heatsinks. At forced convection cooling >200 lfm (1 m/s),
the PKG units can deliver full power without heatsinks
up to +65°C ambient. With derated output power it can
also operate in temperature controlled environments with
non-forced convection cooling. By adding external
heatsinking, the temperature range can be extended
even further. Thanks to its peak power capability, the
PKG series is ideal for applications where max power is
only required during short durations e.g. in disc drives.
The PKG series uses ceramic substrates with plated
copper in order to achieve good thermal management.
These products are manufactured using highly
automated manufacturing lines with a world-class quality
commitment. Ericsson Power Modules AB is an ISO
9001/14001 certified supplier.

Safety
The PKG 4000 I Series DC/DC converters
are designed in accordance with EN 60 950
Safety of information technology equipment
including electrical business equipment
and
certified by SEMKO. The isolation is an
operational insulation in accordance with
EN 60 950.
The PKG DC/DC converter are re-cognized
by UL and meet the applicable requirements
in UL 1950
Safety of information technology
equipment,
the applicable Canadian safety
requirements and UL 1012
Standard for
power supplies.
The DC/DC converter shall be installed in
an end-use equipment and is intended to
be supplied by isolated secondary circuitry
and shall be installed in compliance with
the requirements of the ultimate applica-
tion. When the supply to the DC/DC con-
verter meets all the requirements for SELV
(<60Vdc), the output is considered to remain
within SELV limits (level 3). If connected to a
60 V DC power system reinforced insulation
must be provided in the power supply that
isolates the input from the ac mains. Single
fault testing in the power supply must be
performed in combination with the DC/DC
converter to demonstrate that the output
meets the requirement for SELV. One pole of
the input and one pole of the output is to be
grounded or both are to be kept floating.
The terminal pins are only intended for
connection to mating connectors of internal
wiring inside the end-use equipment.
These DC/DC converters may be used in
telephone equipment in accordance with
paragraph 34 A.1 of UL 1459 (Standard for
Telephone Equipment, second edition).
The isolation voltage is a galvanic isolation
and is verified in an electric strength test.
Test voltage between input and output and
between case and output is 1,500 V dc
for 60 s. In production the test duration may
be decreased to 1 s. The capacitor between
input and output has a value of 4.7 nF (du-
als = 22 nF) and the leakage current is less
than 1µA @ 50 Vdc.
Flammability ratings of the terminal sup-
port and internal plastic construction details
meets UL 94V-0.

Stress in excess of Absolute Maximum Ratings may cause permanent damage. Absolute Maximum
Ratings, sometimes referred to as no destruction limits, are normally tested with one parameter at a time
exceeding the limits of Output data or Electrical Characteristics. If exposed to stress above these limits,
function and performance may degrade in an unspecified manner.

Thermal Data
Two-parameter model
Power dissipation is generated in the components mounted
on the ceramic substrate. The thermal properties of the PKG
DC/DC converter is determined by thermal conduction in the
connected pins and thermal convection from the substrate
via the case.
The two-parameter model characterizes the thermal proper-
ties of the PKG DC/DC converter and the equation below
can be used for thermal design purposes if detailed informa-
tion is needed. The values are given for a module mounted
on a printed board assembly (PBA).
Note that the thermal resistance between the substrate and
the air,
R
th sub-A
is strongly dependent on the air velocity.

Air velocity in free convection is 0.2– 0.3 m/s (40-60 lfm).
Over TemperatureProtection(OTP)
The PKG DC/DC converters have an internal over tempera-
ture protection circuit. If the case temperature exceeds min
+115 °C the power module will go in to OTP-mode. As long
as the case temperature exceeds min +115°C the power
module will operate in OTP-mode.
During the OTP-mode the DC/DC converter will shut down
completely and when the case temerature has decreased
25°C the converter will automatically restart.
