Summary
The IMY 35 series of board mountable 35 Watt DC-DC con-
verters has been designed according to the latest industry
requirements and standards. The converters are particu-
larly suitable for use in mobile or stationary applications in
transport, railways, industry, or telecommunication where
variable input voltages or high transient voltages are preva-
lent.
With a total input voltage range from 60...150 V, the units
are available with double and quadruple outputs, electri-
cally isolated, from 5 V up to 60 V externally adjustable and
with flexible load distribution. A shut down input allows re-
mote converter on-off. Features include consistently high
efficiency over the entire input voltage range, high reliability
and excellent dynamic response to load and line changes.
The converters are designed and built according to the in-
ternational safety standards IEC/EN 60950, UL 1950, CAN/
CSA C22.2 No.950-95. LGA, UL and cUL approvals are in
progress.
The circuit comprises of two planar magnetics devices and
all components are automatically assembled and solidly
soldered onto a single PCB without any wire connection.
Magnetic feedback ensures maximum reliability and
repeatability in the control loop over all operating condi-
tions. Careful considerations of possible thermal stresses
ensure the absence of hot spots providing long life in envi-
ronments where temperature cycles are a reality. The ther-
mal design without using any potting material allows opera-
tion at full load up to an ambient temperature of 71°C in free
air. For extremely high vibration environments the case has
holes for screw mounting. Various options as e.g. extended
temperature range –40...85°C or an alternative pinout pro-
vide a high level of application specific engineering and de-
sign-in flexibility.

Functional Description
DC-DC Converters
IMY 35 Series
The IMY 35 family of DC-DC converters consists of two
feedback controlled interleaved switching flyback power
trains using current mode PWM (pulse width modulation).
Functionally the converters are of two main types. The dual
output types consist of two electrically isolated outputs Vo1,
Vo2. Vo1 and Vo2 derives from two power trains and are
electrically isolated. Voltage regulation for each output is
achieved with passive transformer feedback from the main
transformer of each power train. Adjustment of the outputs
voltages in the range of 80...105% of
U
o nom
is possible via
Trim input on the primary side (See:
Block diagram, dual
output types.)
The quadruple output type consists of 4 outputs and two
power trains. Vo1, Vo4 derive from the first power train and
Vo2, Vo3 from the second one (thus each pair of outputs is
independent from the other one). Voltage regulation for
each pair of outputs is achieved with passive transformer
feedback from the main transformer of each power train.

Each pair of outputs are restricted to being of the same out-
put voltage type (i.e. D05, D12, etc.). If both power trains
have the same output voltage, all outputs may be adjusted
by means of the Trim input. (In case of different output volt-
ages, the Trim1 input influences only Vo1 and Vo4. See:
Block diagram, quadruple output types.)
Current limitation is provided by the primary circuit for each
power train and limits the possible output power for each
pair of outputs. In the case of an overload on either of the
power trains which causes the output voltage to fall less
than typically 60% of
U
o nom
, the entire converter will shut
down and automatically restart in short intervals.
Overtemperature protection is provided for each power
train which will shut down the converter in excessive over-
load conditions with automatic restart approximately in
short intervals.

Input Transient Voltage Protection
IMY 35 Series
The inrush current has been kept as low as possible by
choosing a very small input capacitance. A series resistor
may be installed in the input line to further reduce this cur-
rent.

A built-in suppressor diode provides effective protection
against input transients which may be caused for example
by short-circuits accross the input lines where the network
inductance may cause high energy pulses.

For very high energy transients as for example to achieve
IEC/EN 61000-4-5 or ETR 283 (19 Pfl1) compliance (as per
table:
Electromagnetic Immunity)
an external inductor and
capacitor are required. The components should have simi-
lar characteristics as listed in table:
Components for exter-
nal circuitry for IEC/EN 61000-4-5, level 2 or ETR 283
(19Pfl1) compliance.

Reverse Polarity Protection
The built-in suppressor diode also provides for reverse po-
larity protection at the input by conducting current in the re-
verse direction. An external fuse is required to limit this cur-
rent.
