Test Setup

Peak-to-Peak Output Noise Measurement Test

Use a Cout 0.47μF ceramic capacitor. Scope measurement should be made by using a BNC socket, measurement bandwidth is 0-20 MHz. Position the load between

50 mm and 75 mm from the DC-DC Converter.

Technical Notes

Overload Protection

To provide protection in a fault (output overload) condition, the unit is equipped with internal current limiting circuitry and can endure current limiting for an unlimited

duration. At the point of current-limit inception, the unit shifts from voltage control to current control. The unit operates normally once the output current is brought back

into its specified range.

Input Source Impedance

The power module should be connected to a low ac-impedance input source. Highly inductive source impedances can affect the stability of the power module.

In applications where power is supplied over long lines and output loading is high, it may be necessary to use a capacitor at the input to ensure startup.

Capacitor mounted close to the power module helps ensure stability of the unit, it is recommended to use a good quality low Equivalent Series Resistance (ESR <

1.0Ω at 100 KHz) capacitor of a 2.2μF for the 24V and 48V devices.

Output Ripple Reduction

A good quality low ESR capacitor placed as close as practicable across the load will give the best ripple and noise performance. To reduce output ripple, it is

recommended to use 3.3μF capacitors at the output.

Maximum Capacitive Load

The MDWI06 series has limitation of maximum connected capacitance at the output. The power module may be operated in current limiting mode during start-up,

affecting the ramp-up and the startup time. The maximum capacitance can be found in the data sheet.

Thermal Considerations

Many conditions affect the thermal performance of the power module, such as orientation, airflow over the module and board spacing. To avoid exceeding the

maximum temperature rating of the components inside the power module, the case temperature must be kept below 105℃.

The derating curves are determined from measurements obtained in a test setup.
