Product Highlights
The FARM (Filter/Autoranging Rectifier Module)
is an AC front-end module which provides
EMI filtering, autoranging line rectification
and inrush current limiting. The FARM is
available in either 500/750W or 750/1000W
models in a mini sized package measuring only
2.28” x 2.2” x 0.5”.
The FARM interfaces directly with worldwide
AC mains and may be used with Vicor
300V input DC-DC converters to realize
an autoranging, high density, low profile
switching power supply. The FARM includes
a microcontroller that continuously monitors
the AC line to control bridge / doubler
operation. The user need only provide external
capacitance to satisfy system
hold-up requirements.
Vicor 2nd Generation packaging technology
offers flexible mounting options for various
manufacturing processes. The FARM may be
installed as a conventional leaded device
for onboard applications, inboard for low
profile, height restricted applications, socketed
or surface mounted with optional ModuMate
interconnect products.

Application Note
The Filtered, Autoranging Rectifier Module (FARM) provides an
effective solution for the AC frontend of a power supply built
with Vicor DC-DC converters. This high-performance power
system building block satisfies a broad spectrum of requirements
and agency standards.
In addition to providing transient/surge immunity and EMI
filtering, the FARM contains all of the power switching and
control circuitry necessary for autoranging rectification, inrush
current limiting, and overvoltage protection. This module also
provides converter enable and status functions for orderly power
up/down control or sequencing. To complete the AC front-end
configuration, the user only needs to add hold-up capacitors, and
a few discrete components.
Functional Description
Initial Conditions:
The switch that bypasses the inrush
limiting PTC (positive temperature coefficient) thermistor is
open when power is applied, as is the switch that engages
the strap for voltage doubling. (See Figure 7). In addition, the
converter modules are disabled via the Enable (EN) line, and
BusOK (BOK) is high.
Power Up Sequence (See Figure 8):
1.1.
Upon application of input power, the output bus capacitors
begin to charge. The thermistor limits the charge current, and
the exponential time constant is determined by the hold-up
capacitor value and the thermistor cold resistance. The slope
(dV/dt) of the capacitor voltage versus time approaches zero
as the capacitors become charged to the peak of the
AC line voltage.
2.1.
If the bus voltage is greater than 200V, the doubler is
not activated.
3.1.
If the bus voltage is greater than 235V as the slope
approaches zero, the inrush limiting thermistor is bypassed.
Below 235V, it is not bypassed.
4.1.
The converters are enabled ~150 milliseconds
after the thermistor bypass switch is closed.
5.1.
Bus-OK is asserted after an additional ~150 millisecond delay
to allow the converter outputs to settle within specification.
Power Down Sequence:
(See Figure 8). When input power
is turned off or fails, the following sequence occurs as the bus
voltage decays:
1.2.
Bus-OK is de-asserted when the bus voltage falls below
205V
DC
(Typical).
2.2.
The converters are disabled when the bus voltage
falls below 190V
DC
. If power is reapplied after the converters
are disabled, the entire power-up sequence is repeated.
If a momentary power interruption occurs and power is
re-established before the bus reaches the disable threshold,
the power up sequence is not repeated, i.e., the power
