When operated with additional external load capacitance the rise time of the input voltage will determine the maximum external
capacitance value for guaranteed start up. The slower the rise time of the input voltage the greater the maximum value of the
additional external capacitance for reliable start up.

DESCRIPTION
The NMS series of DC/DC converters are UL1950
recognized which makes them ideal for all
telecom and safety applications where approved
isolation is required. The low profi le package
allows mounting in rack systems without risk of
touching other boards. The output confi guration
allows all of the rated power to be drawn from a
single pin provided the total load does not exceed
2 watts. The devices feature low noise and low
isolation capacitance suiltable for applications
in high noise environments, e.g. heavy electrical
machine interface.

TECHNICAL NOTES
ISOLATION VOLTAGE
‘Hi Pot Test’, ‘Flash Tested’, ‘Withstand Voltage’, ‘Proof Voltage’, ‘Dielectric Withstand Voltage’ & ‘Isolation Test Voltage’ are all terms that relate to the same thing, a test
voltage, applied for a specified time, across a component designed to provide electrical isolation, to verify the integrity of that isolation.
Murata Power Solutions NMS series of dc/dc converters are all 100% production tested at their stated isolation voltage. This is 6kVDC for 1 second.
A question commonly asked is, “What is the continuous voltage that can be applied across the part in normal operation?”
The NMS series has been recognized by Underwiters Laboratory to a working voltage of 300Vrms for Supplementary Insulation system and 150Vrms for Reinforced
Insulation systems.
REPEATED HIGH-VOLTAGE ISOLATION TESTING
It is well known that repeated high-voltage isolation testing of a barrier component can actually degrade isolation capability, to a lesser or greater degree depending on
materials, construction and environment. We therefore strongly advise against repeated high voltage isolation testing, but if it is absolutely required, that the voltage be
reduced by 20% from specified test voltage.
SAFETY APPROVAL
The NMS series has been recognised
by Underwriters Laboratory (UL) to UL 60950
for supplementary insulation up to 300Vrms
and reinforced insulation up to 150Vrms
working voltage.
File number E179522 applies.
