(sac) operating from a 26 to 55 vdc primary bus to deliver an isolated output. the sine amplitude converter offers a low ac impedance beyond the bandwidth of most downstream regulators; therefore capacitance normally at the load can be located at the input to the sine amplitude converter. since the k factor of the VTM48EF480T006A00 is 1 , the capacitance value can be reduced by a factor of 1 , resulting in savings of board area, materials and total system cost. the VTM48EF480T006A00 is provided in a vi chip package compatible with standard pick-and-place and surface mount assembly processes. the co-molded vi chip package provides enhanced thermal management due to a large thermal interface area and superior thermal conductivity. the high conversion efficiency of the VTM48EF480T006A00 increases overall system efficiency and lowers operating costs compared to conventional approaches. the VTM48EF480T006A00 enables the utilization of factorized power architecture? which provides efficiency and size benefits by lowering conversion and distribution losses and promoting high density point of load conversion. v in = 26 to 55 v v out = 26.0 to 55.0 v ( no load ) i out = 6.3 a ( nom ) k = 1 v in l o a d pr pc vc tm il os sg prm regulator cd -out +out -in +in pc vc tm -out +out -in +in regulator voltage transformer factorized power architecture tm vtm transformer ( s ee applica t io n no t e an:024 ) part number package style product grade f = j-lead t = -40 to 125c t = through hole m = -55 to 125c part numbering for storage and operating temperatures see section 6.0 general characteristics 480 x y 006 a00 e 48 vtm typical application

(i.e. 3.0 v = 300 k = 27oc). if a heat sink is applied, tm can be used to thermally protect the system. ? fault detection flag: the tm voltage source is internally turned off as soon as a fault is detected. for system monitoring purposes (microcontroller interface) faults are detected on falling edges of tm signal. 8.0 start up behavior depending on the sequencing of the vc with respect to the input voltage, the behavior during start up will vary as follows: ? normal operation (vc applied prior to v in ): in this case the controller is active prior to ramping the input. when the input voltage is applied, the vtm module output voltage will track the input (see figure 10). the inrush current is determined by the input voltage rate of rise and output capacitance. if the vc voltage is removed prior to the input reaching 26 v, the vtm may shut down. ? stand-alone operation (vc applied after v in ): in this case the vtm output will begin to rise upon the application of the vc voltage (see figure 11). the adaptive soft start circuit (see section 11) may vary the ouput rate of rise in order to limit the inrush current to its maximum level. when starting into high capacitance, or a short, the output current will be limited for a maximum of 1200 sec. after this period, the adaptive soft start circuit will time out and the vtm module may shut down. no restart will be attempted until vc is re-applied or pc is toggled. the maximum output capacitance is limited to 100 f in this mode of operation to ensure a sucessful start. 9.0 thermal considerations vi chip ? products are multi-chip modules whose temperature distribution varies greatly for each part number as well as with the input /output conditions, thermal management and environmental conditions. maintaining the top of the VTM48EF480T006A00 case to less than 100oc will keep all junctions within the vi chip module below 125oc for most applications. the percent of total heat dissipated through the top surface versus through the j-lead is entirely dependent on the particular mechanical and thermal environment. the heat dissipated through the top surface is typically 60%. the heat dissipated through the j-lead onto the pcb board surface is typically 40%. use 100% top surface dissipation when designing for a conservative cooling solution. it is not recommended to use a vi chip module for an extended period of time at full load without proper heat sinking.

(the resonant tank is formed by cr and leakage inductance lr in the power transformer windings as shown in the vtm module block diagram. see section 10). the resonant lc tank, operated at high frequency, is amplitude modulated as a function of input voltage and output current. a small amount of capacitance embedded in the input and output stages of the module is sufficient for full functionality and is key to achieving power density. the VTM48EF480T006A00 sac can be simplified into the following model: at no load: v out = v in ? k (1) k represents the ?turns ratio? of the sac. rearranging eq (1): k= v out (2) v in in the presence of load, v out is represented by: v out = v in ? k ? i out ? r out (3) and i out is represented by: i out = i in ?i q (4) k r out represents the impedance of the sac, and is a function of the r dson of the input and output mosfets and the winding resistance of the power transformer. i q represents the quiescent current of the sac control and gate drive circuitry. the use of dc voltage transformation provides additional interesting attributes. assuming that r out = 0 and i q = 0 a, eq. (3) now becomes eq. (1) and is essentially load independent, resistor r is now placed in series with v in as shown in figure 15. the relationship between v in and v out becomes: v out = (v in ?i in ? r) ? k (5) substituting the simplified version of eq.

(3), where r out is used to represent the characteristic impedance of the sac?. however, in this case a real r on the input side of the sac is effectively scaled by k 2 with respect to the output. assuming that r = 1 , the effective r as seen from the secondary side is 0.98 m , with k = 1/32 as shown in figure 15. a similar exercise should be performed with the additon of a capacitor or shunt impedance at the input to the sac. a switch in series with v in is added to the circuit. this is depicted in figure 16. a change in v in with the switch closed would result in a change in capacitor current according to the following equation: i c (t) = c dv in (7) dt assume that with the capacitor charged to v in , the switch is opened and the capacitor is discharged through the idealized sac. in this case, i c =i out ? k (8) substituting eq. (1) and (8) into eq. (7) reveals: i out = c ? dv out (9) k 2 dt the equation in terms of the output has yielded a k 2 scaling factor for c, specified in the denominator of the equation. a k factor less than unity, results in an effectively larger capacitance on the output when expressed in terms of the input. with a k= 1/32 as shown in figure 16, c = 1 f would appear as c = 1024 f when viewed from the output. low impedance is a key requirement for powering a high- current, low voltage load efficiently. a switching regulation stage should have minimal impedance while simultaneously providing appropriate filtering for any switched current. the use of a sac between the regulation stage and the point of load provides a dual benefit of scaling down series impedance leading back to the source and scaling up shunt capacitance or energy storage as a function of its k factor squared. however, the benefits are not useful if the series impedance of the sac is too high. the impedance of the sac must be low, i.e. well beyond the crossover frequency of the system. a solution for keeping the impedance of the sac low involves switching at a high frequency. this enables small magnetic components because magnetizing currents remain low. small magnetics mean small path lengths for turns. use of low loss core material at high frequencies also reduces core losses. the two main terms of power loss in the vtm module are: - no load power dissipation (p nl ): defined as the power used to power up the module with an enabled powertrain at no load. - resistive loss (r out ): refers to the power loss across the vtm modeled as pure resistive impedance. p dissipated = p nl + p r out (10) therefore, p out = p in ?p dissipated = p in ?p nl ?p r out (11) the above relations can be combined to calculate the overall module efficiency: h = p out = p in ?p nl ?p r out (12) p in p in = v in ? i in ?p nl ?(i out ) 2 ? r out v in ? i in =1 ?
