The UEP 11-18Watt series DC/DC converter is an alternative pinout for DATEL’s
flagship A-Series. An external pinout configuration affords the design layout to be
oriented for optimal thermal performance thereby increasing available output power
as much as 20%. Available in a 1" x 2" package, these converters can deliver up to
18 Watts at the same ambient temperatures as their 15 Watt counterparts.
By combining a high-frequency (340kHz), high-efficiency (to 88%), synchronous-
rectifier topology with the newest components and time-tested, fully automated,
SMT-on-pcb construction, these UEP Models are able to bring you 11-18W in the
standard 2" x 1" package from which most competitors can only get 5-10W. All
UEP’s deliver their full output power over ambient temperature ranges from –40°C
to as high as +70°C (model and input voltage dependent) without heat sinks or
supplemental forced-air cooling. Devices derate to +100°C.
Output voltages are 3.3, 5, 12 or 15 Volts. Input voltage ranges are 10-18V
("D12" models), 18-36V ("D24" models) or 36-75V ("D48") models. All models fea-
ture input pi filters, input undervoltage and overvoltage lockout, input reverse-polarity
protection, output overvoltage protection, output current limiting, and continuous
short-circuit protection. Standard features also include On/Off Control and output-
trim. All models are certified to IEC950, UL60950 and EN60950 safety requirements
for OPERATIONAL insulation. "D48" models (36-75V inputs) are CE marked.
UEP 11-18W DC/DC’s are packaged in low-cost, light-weight, diallyl phthalate
(UL94V-0 rated) plastic packages with standoffs. EMC compliance is achieved via a
low-noise design rather than through expensive metal shielding.

Floating Outputs
Since these are isolated DC/DC converters, their outputs are "floating."
Designers will usually use the –Output (pin 5) as the ground/return of the
load circuit. You can, however, use the +Output (pin 4) as ground/return to
effectively reverse the output polarity.
Minimum Output Loading Requirements
3.3 and 5V models employ a synchronous-rectifier design topology. All
models regulate within spec and are stable under no-load conditions. 12/15V
models employ a traditional forward, diode-rectification architecture and
require 25mA loading to achieve their listed regulation specs. Operation
under 25mA load conditions will not damage the 12/15V devices; however
they may not meet all listed specifications.
Filtering and Noise Reduction
All UEP Series DC/DC Converters achieve their rated ripple and noise
specifications with no external input/output capacitors. In critical applications,
input/output noise may be further reduced by installing external I/O caps.
Input capacitors should be selected for bulk capacitance, low ESR and high
rms-ripple-current ratings. Output capacitors should be selected for low ESR
and appropriate frequency response. All caps should have appropriate volt-
age ratings and be mounted as close to the converters as possible.
The most effective combination of external I/O capacitors will be a function of
your particular load and layout conditions. Our Applications Engineers recom-
mend potential solutions and can discuss the possibility of our modifying a
given device’s internal filtering to meet your specific requirements. Contact
our Applications Engineering Group for additional details.
Input Fusing
Certain applications and/or safety agencies may require the installation of
fuses at the inputs of power conversion components. Fuses should also be
used if the possibility of sustained, non-current-limited, input-voltage polarity
reversals exists. For DATEL UER 11-18 Watt DC/DC Converters, you should
use slow-blow type fuses with values no greater than the following.

Trimming Output Voltages
These converters have a trim capability (pin 6) that allows users to adjust the
output voltage ±5%. Adjustments to the output voltage can be accomplished
via a trim pot, Figure 2, or a single fixed resistor as shown in Figures 3 and 4.
A single fixed resistor can increase or decrease the output voltage depending
on its connection. Fixed resistors should have an absolute TCR less than
100ppm/°C to minimize sensitivity to changes in temperature.
A single resistor connected from the Trim (pin 6) to the +Output (pin 4), see
Figure 3, will decrease the output voltage. A resistor connected from the Trim
(pin 6) to –Output (pin 5) will increase the output voltage.

UEP Models
Start-Up Threshold and Undervoltage Shutdown
Under normal start-up conditions, UEP DC/DC Converters will not begin
to regulate properly until the ramping input voltage exceeds the Start-Up
Threshold. Once operating, devices will turn off when the applied voltage
drops below the Undervoltage Shutdown point. Devices will remain off as
long as the undervoltage condition continues. Units will automatically re-start
when the applied voltage is brought back above the Start-Up Threshold. The
hysteresis built into this function avoids an indeterminate on/off condition at
a single input voltage. See Performance/Functional Specifications table for
actual limits.
On/Off Control
The input-side, remote On/Off Control function (pin 4) can be ordered to
operate with either polarity (12 and 15 Volt models only). Positive-polarity
devices (standard, no part-number suffix) are enabled when pin 3 is left open
or is pulled high (+13V to V
IN
applied with respect to –Input, pin 2, (see Figure
2). Positive-polarity devices are disabled when pin 5 is pulled low (0-0.8V
with respect to –Input). Negative-polarity devices are off when pin 3 is open
or pulled high (+2.4V to +10V), and on when pin 3 is pulled low (0-0.5V).

Start-Up Time
The V
IN
to V
OUT
start-up time is the interval of time where the input voltage
crosses the turn-on threshold point, and the fully loaded output voltage
enters and remains within its specified accuracy band. Actual measured
times will vary with input source impedance, external input/output capac-
itance, and load. The UHE Series implements a soft start circuit
that limits the duty cycle
of the PWM controller at power up, thereby limiting the Input Inrush current.
The On/Off Control to V
OUT
start-up time assumes the converter has its
nominal input voltage applied but is turned off via the On/Off Control pin.
The specification defines the interval between the time at which the converter
is turned on and the fully loaded output voltage enters and remains within
its specified accuracy band. Similar to the V
IN
to V
OUT
start-up, the On/Off
Control to V
OUT
start-up time is also governed by the internal soft start
circuitry and external load capacitance.
Input Overvoltage/Undervoltage Shutdown and Start-Up Threshold
Under normal start-up conditions, devices will not begin to regulate until the
ramping-up input voltage exceeds the Start-Up Threshold Voltage (35V for
"D48" models). Once operating, devices will not turn off until the input volt-
age drops below the Undervoltage Shutdown limit (34V for "D48" models).
Subsequent re-start will not occur until the input is brought back up to the
Start-Up Threshold. This built in hysteresis prevents any unstable on/off
situations from occurring at a single input voltage.
Input voltages exceeding the input overvoltage shutdown specification listed
in the Performance/Functional Specifications will cause the device to shut-
down. A built-in hysteresis of 0.6 to 1.6 Volts for all models will not allow the
converter to restart until the input voltage is sufficiently reduced.

CONTROL
If the input-voltage polarity is accidentally reversed, an internal diode will
become forward biased and likely draw excessive current from the power
source. If the source is not current limited (<10A) nor the circuit appropriately
fused, it could cause permanent damage to the converter.
Current Limiting
When output increases to 120% to 190% of the rated output current,
the DC/DC converter will go into a current limiting mode. In this condition
the output voltage will decrease proportionately with increases in output cur-
rent, thereby maintaining a somewhat constant power dissipation. This is
commonly referred to as power limiting. Current limit inception is defined
as the point where the full-power output voltage falls below the specified
tolerance. See Performance/Functional Specifications. If the load current
being drawn from the converter is significant enough, the unit will go into a
short circuit condition. See "Short Circuit Condition."

Figure 3. Driving the Negative Polarity On/Off Control Pin
Dynamic control of the remote on/off function is best accomplished with
a mechanical relay or an open-collector/open-drain drive circuit (optically
isolated if appropriate). The drive circuit should be able to sink appropriate
current (see Performance Specs) when activated and withstand appropriate
voltage when deactivated.
Applying an external voltage to pin 3 when no input power is applied to the
converter can cause permanent damage to the converter.
