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,
low voltage drops, and a high efficiency.
These products are manufactured using highly
automated manufacturing lines with a world-class
quality commitment and a five year warranty.
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 includ-
ing 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 sup-
plied by isolated secondary circuitry and shall
be installed in compliance with the require-
ments of the ultimate application. When
the supply to the DC/DC converter 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 test-
ing 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 con-
nection 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 (duals = 22 nF) and the leak-
age current is less than 1 A @ 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 unspeci-
fied manner.

Note:
1)
The input voltage range 36...72 V meets the
requirements in the European Telecom Standard
prETS 300 132-2 for Normal input voltage
range in 48 V and 60 V DC power systems,
–40.5...–57.0 V and –50.0...–72.0 V respec-
tively. At input voltages exceeding 72 V (abnor-
mal voltage) the power loss will be higher than
at normal input voltage and T
C
must be limited
to max +90°C. Absolute max con-tinuous input
voltage is 80 Vdc. Output characteristics will
be marginally affected at input voltages exceed-
ing 72 V.

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 con-
verter 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 properties of the
PKG DC/DC converter and the equation below can be used for ther-
mal design purposes if detailed information 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.

Control
Over TemperatureProtection(OTP)
The PKG DC/DC converters have an internal over temperature protec-
tion 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 com-
pletely and when the case temerature has decreased 25°C the converter
will automatically restart.
