Description
The LAW005-Series Power Modules are low-profile dc-dc converters that operate over an input voltage range
of 36 Vdc to 75 Vdc and provide precisely regulated single or dual outputs. The –25 °C to +71 °C operating
temperature range makes it ideal for electronic data processing applications. The outputs are isolated from the
inputs, allowing versatile polarity configurations and grounding connections. The modules have a maximum
power rating of 5 W and a typical full-load efficiency of 80%. Built-in filtering for both input and output minimizes
the need for external filtering.

Absolute Maximum Ratings
Stresses in excess of the absolute maximum ratings can cause permanent damage to the device. These are abso-
lute stress ratings only. Functional operation of the device is not implied at these or any other conditions in excess
of those given in the operations sections of the data sheet. Exposure to absolute maximum ratings for extended
periods can adversely affect device reliability.

Fusing Considerations
CAUTION: This power module is not internally fused. An input line fuse must always be used.
This encapsulated power module can be used in a wide variety of applications, ranging from simple stand-alone
operation to an integrated part of a sophisticated power architecture. To preserve maximum flexibility, internal fus-
ing is not included; however, to achieve maximum safety and system protection, always use an input line fuse. The
safety agencies require a normal-blow fuse with a maximum rating of 5 A (see Safety Considerations section).
Based on the information provided in this data sheet on inrush energy and maximum dc input current, the same
type of fuse with a lower rating can be used. Refer to the fuse manufacturer’s data for further information.

Safety Considerations
For safety-agency approval of the system in which the
power module is used, the power module must be
installed in compliance with the spacing and separation
requirements of the end-use safety agency standard,
i.e.,
UL
60950,
CSA
C22.2 No. 60950-00, and
VDE
0805 (IEC60950).
If the input source is non-SELV (ELV or a hazardous
voltage greater than 60 Vdc and less than or equal to
75 Vdc), for the module's output to be considered
meeting the requirements of safety extra-low voltage
(SELV), all of the following must be true:
n
BATTERY
V
I
(-)
1-0304
Note: Input reflected-ripple current is measured with a simulated
source impedance of 12 µH. Capacitor Cs offsets possible
battery impedance. Current is measured at the input of the
module.
The input source is to be provided with reinforced
insulation from any other hazardous voltages, includ-
ing the ac mains.
One V
I
pin and one V
O
pin are to be grounded, or
both the input and output pins are to be kept floating.
The input pins of the module are not operator acces-
sible.
Another SELV reliability test is conducted on the
whole system, as required by the safety agencies, on
the combination of supply source and the subject
module to verify that under a single fault, hazardous
voltages do not appear at the module's output.

Note: Use a 0.1 µF ceramic capacitor. Scope measurement should
be made using a BNC socket. Position the load between
50.8 mm and 76.2 mm (2 in. and 3 in.) from the module.
Note:
Do not ground either of the input pins of the
module without grounding one of the output
pins. This may allow a non-SELV voltage to
appear between the output pins and ground.
The power module has extra-low voltage (ELV) outputs
when all inputs are ELV.
The input to these units is to be provided with a maxi-
mum 5 A normal-blow fuse in the ungrounded lead.

Feature Description
Output Overvoltage Protection (single output mod-
ules only)
Output overvoltage protection is not a feature on dual
output modules. For single output modules, the output
overvoltage protection consists of a Transient Voltage
Suppressor (TVS) diode across the output terminals.
During an ouput overvoltage fault condition, this diode
protection clamps the output within the voltages shown
in Table 5
