The GAIA Converter limitor LGDS-300 is an ultra
compact power adaptator module designed to
allow operation during voltage transients and
spikes, occuring in avionics or military systems.
The LGDS-300 delivers an output voltage adapted
to GAIA Converter DC/DC modules. This module
is optimized to provide high power efficiency up
to 99% over the whole power range up to 300W.
The LGDS-300 features 3 modes of operations
as follow:
•
Normal operation :
Normal operation occurs in between the per-
manent input voltage of the DC/DC converter;
The LGDS-300 is then operating in steady
transparency state.
•
Power fail operation
:
The power fail operation occurs when the
input bus drops below 9 Vdc low voltage
limit ; an undervoltage lock-out stops the
LGDS-300.
•
Transient operation :
The LGDS-300 clamps input transient up
to 80V/100ms or 100V/50ms.
The LGDS-300 series is compliant with the inter-
national input bus standards :
- MIL-STD-704A/D/E/F
- AECMA EN2282
- GAM-EG13B/AIR2021E
- DO160E cat A, B and Z
- MIL-STD-1275A/B/C/D

The design has been carried out with
surface mount components and is manufactured
in a fully automated process to guarranty high
quality. Every module is tested with a Gaïa
Converter automated test equipment. The mo-
dules are potted with a bi-component thermal
conductive compound and packaged in a metallic
case to ensure the module’s integrity under
severe environmental conditions.

3- Modes of Operation
3-1 LGDS-300 Modes of Operation
The LGDS-300-O-K operates with H input family of GAIA
Converter DC/DC Converters.
The LGDS-300-O-K features 3 modes of operations as
describes in the following state diagram :
•
Normal operation :
Normal operation occurs in between 9V and 42V input
voltage; the module is then operating in steady
transparency state.
•
Power fail operation
:
When a failure occurs such as an undervoltage, an
over current or an over temperature, the LGDS-300
turns to power fail mode and stops operation until
the failure is removed. The LGDS-300 features 3 pro-
tection functions : input undervoltage lockout (UVLO),
output over current protection (OCP) and over
temperature protection (OTP).
•
Transient operation :
When a surge occurs, the LGDS-300 turns to transient
mode operation. It clamps input transient up to 100V
as long as 50ms.
During this transient mode, the over current protec-
tion (OCP) is activated in order to prevent applica-
tions failure.
