Page 5 GE Data Sheet JRCW016A0R Orca Series; DC-DC Converter Power Modules 36-75 Vdc Input; 28.0Vdc Output; 16Adc Output Test Configurations Design Considerations Input Source Impedance The power module should be connected to a low ac-impedance source. A highly inductive source impedance can affect the stability of the power module. For the test configuration in Figure 7, a 470F Low ESR aluminum capacitor, CIN , mounted close to the power module helps ensure the stability of the unit. Consult the factory for further application guidelines. Output Capacitance Note: Measure the input reflected-ripple current with a simulated source inductance (LTEST) of 12 H. Capacitor CS offsets possible battery impedance. Measure the current, as shown above. Figure 7. Input Reflected Ripple Current Test Setup. The JRCW016A0R power module requires a minimum output capacitance of 440F Low ESR aluminum capacitor, Cout to ensure stable operation over the full range of load and line conditions, see Figure 8. If the ambient temperature is under 20C, it is required to use at least 3 pcs of minimum capacitors in parallel. In general, the process of determining the acceptable values of output capacitance and ESR is complex and is load-dependent. Safety Considerations Note: Use a Cout (470 F Low ESR aluminum or tantalum capacitor typical), a 0.1 F ceramic capacitor and a 10 F ceramic capacitor, and Scope measurement should be made using a BNC socket. Position the load between 51 mm and 76 mm (2 in. and 3 in.) from the module. Figure 8. Output Ripple and Noise Test Setup. Note: All measurements are taken at the module terminals. When socketing, place Kelvin connections at module terminals to avoid measurement errors due to socket contact resistance. Figure 9. Output Voltage and Efficiency Test Setup. March 23, 2016 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 60950-1, 2nd Ed., CSA No. 60950-1 2nd Ed., and VDE0805-1 EN60950-1, 2nd Ed. For end products connected to -48V dc, or -60Vdc nominal DC MAINS (i.e. central office dc battery plant), no further fault testing is required. *Note: -60V dc nominal battery plants are not available in the U.S. or Canada. For all input voltages, other than DC MAINS, where the input voltage is less than 60V dc, if the input meets all of the requirements for SELV, then: The output may be considered SELV. Output voltages will remain within SELV limits even with internally-generated non-SELV voltages. Single component failure and fault tests were performed in the power converters. One pole of the input and one pole of the output are to be grounded, or both circuits are to be kept floating, to maintain the output voltage to ground voltage within ELV or SELV limits. However, SELV will not be maintained if VI(+) and VO(+) are grounded simultaneously. (c)2016 General Electric Company. All rights reserved. Page 6 GE Data Sheet JRCW016A0R Orca Series; DC-DC Converter Power Modules 36-75 Vdc Input; 28.0Vdc Output; 16Adc Output Safety Considerations (continued) For all input sources, other than DC MAINS, where the input voltage is between 60 and 75V dc (Classified as TNV-2 in Europe), the following must be meet, if the converter's output is to be evaluated for SELV: The input source is to be provided with reinforced insulation from any hazardous voltage, including the ac mains. One Vi pin and one Vo pin are to be reliably earthed, or both the input and output pins are to be kept floating. 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. All flammable materials used in the manufacturing of these modules are rated 94V-0, or tested to the UL60950 A.2 for reduced thickness. The input to these units is to be provided with a maximum 25 A fast-acting or time-delay fuse in the ungrounded input conection. Feature Description Remote On/Off Two remote on/off options are available. Positive logic turns the module on during a logic high voltage on the ON/OFF pin, and off during a logic low. Negative logic remote On/Off, device code suffix "1", turns the module off during a logic high and on during a logic low. To turn the power module on and off, the user must supply a switch (open collector or equivalent) to control the voltage (Von/off) between the ON/OFF terminal and the VIN(-) terminal (see Figure 10). Logic low is 0V Von/off 1.2V. The maximum Ion/off during a logic low is 1mA, the switch should be maintain a logic low level whilst sinking this current. During a logic high, the typical maximum Von/off generated by the module is 5V, and the maximum allowable leakage current at Von/off = 5V is 50A. If not using the remote on/off feature: Figure 10. Circuit configuration for using Remote On/Off Implementation. Overcurrent Protection To provide protection in a fault output overload condition, the module is equipped with internal current limiting protection circuitry, and can endure continuous overcurrent by providing constant current output, for up to 4 seconds, as long as the output voltage is greater than VtrimMIN. If the load resistance is to low to support VtrimMIN in an overcurrent condition or a short circuit load condition exists, the module will shutdown immediately. A latching shutdown option is standard. Following shutdown, the module will remain off until the module is reset by either cycling the input power or by toggling the on/off pin for one second. An auto-restart option (4) is also available in a case where an auto recovery is required. If overcurrent greater than 19A persists for few milli-seconds, the module will shut down and auto restart until the fault condition is corrected. If the output overload condition still exists when the module restarts, it will shut down again. This operation will continue indefinitely, until the overcurrent condition is corrected. Over Voltage Protection The output overvoltage protection consists of circuitry that monitors the voltage on the output terminals. If the voltage on the output terminals exceeds the over voltage protection threshold, then the module will shutdown and latch off. The overvoltage latch is reset by either cycling the input power for one second or by toggling the on/off signal for one second. The protection mechanism is such that the unit can continue in this condition until the fault is cleared. An auto-restart option (4) is also available in a case where an auto recovery is required. For positive logic, leave the ON/OFF pin open. For negative logic, short the ON/OFF pin to VIN(-). March 23, 2016 (c)2016 General Electric Company. All rights reserved. Page 7 GE Data Sheet JRCW016A0R Orca Series; DC-DC Converter Power Modules 36-75 Vdc Input; 28.0Vdc Output; 16Adc Output Feature Description (continued) Remote sense Remote sense minimizes the effects of distribution losses by regulating the voltage at the remote-sense connections (see Figure 11). For No Trim or Trim down application, the voltage between the remote-sense pins and the output terminals must not exceed the output voltage sense range given in the Feature Specifications table i.e.: [Vo(+)-Vo(-)] - [SENSE(+) - SENSE(-)] 2% of Vo,nom The voltage between the Vo(+) and Vo(-) terminals must not exceed the minimum output overvoltage shut-down value indicated in the Feature Specifications table. This limit includes any increase in voltage due to remote-sense compensation and output voltage set-point adjustment (trim). See Figure 11. If not using the remote-sense feature to regulate the output at the point of load, then connect SENSE(+) to Vo(+) and SENSE(-) to Vo(-) at the module. Although the output voltage can be increased by both the remote sense and by the trim, the maximum increase for the output voltage is not the sum of both. The maximum increase is the larger of either the remote sense or the trim. The amount of power delivered by the module is defined as the voltage at the output terminals multiplied by the output current. When using remote sense and trim: the output voltage of the module can be increased, which at the same output current would increase the power output of the module. Care should be taken to ensure that the maximum output power of the module remains at or below the maximum rated power. Figure 12. Output Voltage Trim Limits vs. Input Voltage. Trim Down - Decrease Output Voltage With an external resistor (Radj_down) between the TRIM and SENSE(-) pins, the output voltage set point (Vo,adj) decreases (see Figure 13). The following equation determines the required external-resistor value to obtain a percentage output voltage change of %.

Figure 11. Effective Circuit Configuration for Single-Module Remote-Sense Operation Output Voltage. Output Voltage Programming Trimming allows the user to increase or decrease the output voltage set point of a module. Trimming down is accomplished by connecting an external resistor between the TRIM pin and the SENSE(-) pin. Trimming up is accomplished by connecting external resistor between the SENSE(+) pin and TRIM pin. The trim resistor should be positioned close to the module. Certain restrictions apply to the input voltage lower limit when trimming the output voltage to the maximum. See Figure 12 for the allowed input to output range when using trim. If not using the trim down feature, leave the TRIM pin open. March 23, 2016 Figure 13. Circuit Configuration to Decrease Output Voltage. Trim Up - Increase Output Voltage With an external resistor (Radj_up) connected between the SENSE(+) and TRIM pins, the output voltage set point (Vo,adj) increases (see Figure 14).

The value of RG will be dependent on the voltage step and range of the DAC and the desired values for trim-up and trim-down %. Please contact your GE technical representative to obtain more details on the selection for this resistor. Figure 14. Circuit Configuration to Increase Output Voltage. The voltage between the Vo(+) and Vo(-) terminals must not exceed the minimum output overvoltage shut-down value indicated in the Feature Specifications table. This limit includes any increase in voltage due to remote- sense compensation and output voltage set-point adjustment (trim). See Figure 11. Although the output voltage can be increased by both the remote sense and by the trim, the maximum increase for the output voltage is not the sum of both. The maximum increase is the larger of either the remote sense or the trim. The amount of power delivered by the module is defined as the voltage at the output terminals multiplied by the output current. When using remote sense and trim, the output voltage of the module can be increased, which the same output current would increase the power output of the module. Care should be taken to ensure that the maximum output power of the module remains at or below the maximum rated power.

Circuit Configuration to Actively Adjust the Output Voltage. Tunable Loop The JRCW016A0Rx-T modules have a new feature that optimizes transient response of the module called Tunable Loop. External capacitors are usually added to the output of the module for two reasons: to reduce output ripple and noise and to reduce output voltage deviations from the steadystate value in the presence of dynamic load current changes. Adding external capacitance however affects the voltage control loop of the module, typically causing the loop to slow down with sluggish response. Larger values of external capacitance could also cause the module to become unstable. The Tunable Loop allows the user to externally adjust the voltage control loop to match the filter network connected to the output of the module. The Tunable Loop is implemented by connecting a series R-C between the SENSE(+) and TRIM pins of the module, as shown in Fig. 16. This R-C allows the user to externally adjust the voltage loop feedback compensation of the module. (c)2016 General Electric Company. All rights reserved.

Layout Considerations The JRCW016A0R power module series are constructed using a single PWB with integral base plate; as such, component clearance between the bottom of the power module and the mounting (Host) board is limited. Avoid placing copper areas on the outer layer directly underneath the power module. Post Solder Cleaning and Drying Considerations Ambient Temperature, TA (oC) Figure 19. Derating Output Current vs. local Ambient temperature and Airflow, No Heatsink, Vin=48V, airflow from Vi(-) to Vi(+). March 23, 2016 Post solder cleaning is usually the final circuit-board assembly process prior to electrical board testing. The result of inadequate cleaning and drying can affect both the reliability of a power module and the testability of the finished circuit-board assembly. For guidance on appropriate soldering, cleaning and drying procedures, refer to GE Board Mounted Power Modules: Soldering and Cleaning Application Note. (c)2016 General Electric Company.

They are designed to be processed through single or dual wave soldering machines. The pins have an RoHS-compliant finish that is compatible with both Pb and Pb-free wave soldering processes. A maximum preheat rate of 3C/s is March 23, 2016 suggested. The wave preheat process should be such that the temperature of the power module board is kept below 210C. For Pb solder, the recommended pot temperature is 260C, while the Pb-free solder pot is 270C max. The JRCW016A0R can not be processed with paste-through-hole Pb or Pb-free reflow process.
