Filter F4804A is a fully compatible replacement for F4804, with improved electrical and thermal characteristics. Unlike most available off-the-shelf filter modules, the F4804A, in addition to common mode noise reduction components, is provisioned with a differential LC-filter stage, which virtually guarantees compliance with conducted noise standards across the frequency range from 150 kHz to 30 MHz, including fundamental switching frequency and its harmonics. Test results show headroom of 15-20 dB for conducted noise quasi-peak levels, in relation to Class B requirements. F4804A filter is designed specifically for distributed power solutions in conjunction with DC-DC converters. Low profile and small size (only 0.75 sq. in.) in a surface mount package helps the designer save system board real estate, and simplifies the layout. A single filter can be used with multiple converters, and is capable of providing up to 4 A to the converter input bus at 85 C. When used as specified within this data sheet, these filters do not require airflow and/or derating at high temperatures. .

Page 4 of 41 www.power-one.com F & FC Series DC-DC Converter Input Filters F4804A, 0-80V, 4 Amps, SMT Mount Thermal Considerations To check filter thermal characteristic in an actual system environment, attach a thermocouple to the top of each inductor. Because of low series internal DC resistance, the F4804A filter generally does not require airflow and/or derating to ambient temperatures up to 85 C, if placed and interconnected as described below. The maximum temperature at these test points should not exceed 120 C. Good thermal design includes the appropriate placement of the filter on the system board as to maximize heat exchange through the power pins. For high temperature operation in low airflow environments, use of 1-2 oz copper for the external connection pads and provision for some extra copper at all four I/O pins is encouraged. Good thermal connection to the power planes is important. A typical application schematic is shown in Fig. 5. The filter can be used to power one or more converters. For applications requiring filter current greater than 4 A divide the converters into smaller groups and use multiple filters or use a F4810 or F2410 filter which is capable of providing up to 10 A. Do not connect filters in parallel.

The following bulleted items are considerations regarding the external components for the typical application shown in Fig. 5. Input electrolytic capacitor C1. We recommend 1-2 F/W for 48V applications. This capacitor is needed to ensure stability of converters in presence of their negative input impedance characteristic. Note that electrolytic capacitors at -40 C have 3-5 times less capacitance than at room temperature, and therefore it is good practice to check the power system at worst case conditions from this point of view, i.e. lowest ambient temperature, minimum input voltage, and maximum load. If electrolytic capacitors are restricted for use in the system, please contact the factory. Input capacitors C2, C3 are optional; they decrease input ripple current and improve EMI. One or two of the following ceramic chip capacitors per converter are recommended: - Common-mode capacitor (Y-cap) values and their EMI attenuation effects depend on system grounding and layout. If connection of capacitors between input and output is prohibited because of system restrictions, connect Y-capacitors only from each input pin to system ground (CY1 and CY2 on Fig. 5). The value of these capacitors in this case is "the bigger the better" (preferably 0.1 F or larger). Voltage rating of Y-capacitors depends on the system isolation and safety requirements. Output capacitors C8, C9 are optional to reduce output ripple. Addition of one-two 47 F ceramic capacitors, for example, for low voltage applications 3.3 V and below, significantly decreases output ripple from 25-40 mV peak-to-peak to 5-10 mV. Recommended capacitor for these low voltage applications is C3225X5R0J476 from TDK. F4804A filter should be protected with a 5 Amps fuse (R451005 from Littelfuse). Smaller value fuses can be used as required for protection to a lower power limit.

Shown in Fig. 1, the schematic diagrams of both filters are similar, the only difference are changes in C1, C2 capacitor values. The separate differential inductor, L2, allows a 50 differential attenuation of 60 dB across the stated frequency range, a value substantially higher in comparison with other available off-the-shelf filters (typically 25-30 dB). The F4810 can be used in 24 V or 48 V systems without any limitations; however, in 24 V systems the F2410 differential attenuation is better. At low frequencies around 100-200 kHz the difference is 20dB, but at high frequencies the plots are close to identical.

Either filter can be used to power one or more converters. Maximum filter output current should be limited 10 A - or less - depending upon system thermal environment. Because of low series internal DC resistance, the F4810/F2410 filters generally do not require airflow and/or derating to ambient temperatures up to 85 C, if placed and interconnected as described below. The required filter current drawn by the converter loads, IREQ'd(Filter), will be the sum of the loads of all connected converters: Good thermal design is consistent with appropriate placement to gain additional heat exchange through the I/O pins to the system board. For high temperature operation in low airflow environments, use of 1-2 oz copper for the external connection pads and provision for some extra copper at all four I/O pins is encouraged. Thermal derating data shown were taken on special thermal board with each input and output pin connected to 0.5 sq. in pad of 2 oz copper. IREQ'd(filter) = [Pi,OUT/(VIN, min * i, min)] [A] where: IREQ'd(filter) Pi,OUT(converter) To check filter thermal characteristic in an actual system environment, attach a thermocouple to the top of differential inductor, L2; it is the INDUCTOR closest to OUT+ pin.

The following bulleted items are considerations regarding the external components for the typical application shown in Fig. 5. Input electrolytic capacitor C1. We recommend 1-2 F/W for 48 V applications, and 2-4 F/W for 24 V applications. This capacitor is needed to ensure stability of converters in presence of their negative input impedance characteristic. Note that electrolytic capacitors at -40 C have 3-5 times less capacitance than at room temperature, and therefore it is good practice to check the power system at worst case conditions from this point of view, i.e. lowest ambient temperature, minimum input voltage, and maximum load. If electrolytic capacitors are restricted for use in the system, please contact the factory. If connection of capacitors between input and output is prohibited because of system restrictions, connect Y-capacitors only from each input pin to system ground. The value of these capacitors in this case is "the bigger the better" (preferably 0.1 F or larger). Voltage rating of Y-capacitors depends on the system isolation and safety requirements. Output capacitors C8, C9 are optional to reduce output ripple. Addition of one-two 47 F ceramic capacitors, for example, for low voltage applications 3.3 V and below, significantly decreases output ripple from 25-40 mV peak-topeak to 5-10 mV. Recommended capacitor for these low voltage applications is C3225X5R0J476 from TDK. UL testing was performed with a 12 Amps fuse (R451012 from Littelfuse). Fuses larger than 12 Amps should not be used. Smaller value fuses can be used as required for protection to a lower power limit. Input capacitors C2, C3 are optional; they decrease input ripple current and improve EMI. One or two of the following ceramic chip capacitors, as required, per converter are recommended: - TDK C4532X7R2A105, 1.0 F, 100V - for 48 V applications - TDK C4532X7R1H475, 4.7 F, 50V - for 24 V applications MCD10059 Rev. 1.1, 21-Jan-10 Common-mode capacitor (Y-cap) values and their EMI attenuation effects depend on system grounding and layout (they are not shown on Fig. 5). In EMI testing with the filter, ceramic capacitors between input and output of the converter (C4 - C7) were very helpful. Typical values for the capacitor between Vin- and Voutare 3,300 pF - 5,100 pF, and for the capacitor between Vin+ and Vout+, 0 to 3,300 pF.

They are intended to be used in series with the inputs to the converters, between the source and the converter (with its necessary external input capacitor). A properly-sized filter can serve for multiple converters. There are three sizes of FC filters, differentiated by their DC current ratings. They are all rated for up to 100 VDC continuous, and for 1500 VDC test voltage from input (or output) to ground. The three DC current ratings are 5.0 A, 10 A, and 20 A through current. Each filter provides both normal mode and common mode attenuation in normal application.

A constant efficiency power module exhibits an input voltage versus current characteristic which electrically resembles a negative resistor in the normal operating range of the module. Constant efficiency means that if the output power is held constant, the input power will remain constant across the operating input voltage range. If the source voltage rises, the current drawn from the source will fall, to maintain a constant product of voltage and current, hence, constant input power. This characteristic is that of a negative resistor. When a negative resistance is fed from a positive source impedance which has a greater magnitude than that of the negative resistance, either the system crashes or it becomes unstable. A good general rule is that the magnitude of the source impedance must be lower than the magnitude of the input impedance of the module, at all frequencies up to the switching frequency of the module. (The classic reference is Middlebrook and Cuk, "Input Filter Considerations in Design and Application of Switching Regulators," Advances in Switched-Mode Power Conversion, pp 91-107, TeslaCo, 1981.) This rule is especially important, and harder to follow, with higher power modules because the magnitude of the negative input impedance is lower. The normal solution is to place a low impedance capacitor directly across the input terminals of the module. 100 to 220 F is usually recommended for output power levels up to 300 Watts. This capacitor insures that the magnitude of the source impedance is lower than that of the module input impedance. Note: this assumes that the DC source resistance is sufficiently low; nothing can correct this problem. Too high a DC source resistance means that the necessary energy required by the input of the module is not available, and this system will not work. Use of the capacitor complicates the system design. There must be some consideration of the surge current required to charge the capacitor when power is first applied. A surge limiting mechanism may be required. The capacitor may form a resonant circuit with the inductance of an EMI filter. If this happens, the resonance will require damping. The capacitor must be rated to handle all of the reflected ripple current of the module. Adding damping in the form of a resistor in series with the capacitor may reduce the ripple current in the capacitor. A small value, high ripple current capacitor may then be required in parallel with the damped electrolytic in order to meet the EMI requirements. The system designer must evaluate all of these requirements and make the correct choices for the application. Figure 1. Application of Input Filters MCD10059 Rev. 1.1, 21-Jan-10 Page 16 of 41 www.power-one.com F & FC Series DC-DC Converter Input Filters FC Series, 0-100V, 5/10/20 Amps, TH Mount DC CURRENT RATINGS: FC filters are rated for 5.0, 10.0, and 20.0 amperes DC at up to +60 C. ambient temperature with 400 LFM of forced air across the module surface, or with the case temperature otherwise held to a maximum of +100 C. With no forced air and no additional cooling, the same modules are rated for 3.5, 6.5, and 13 amperes maximum. Safety Considerations ISOLATION: The FC Series EMI filters have 1500 Volt DC isolation from input or output to ground, but no isolation from input to output. The output voltage is the input voltage. FUSING: These filters have no external fuse. An external fuse must always be employed. In general, a 250 volt rated fuse must be used to meet international safety requirements. The fuse value should be selected to be greater than the maximum input current of the filter, which occurs at the minimum input voltage of the modules being powered through the filter. Both input traces and the chassis ground trace (if used) must be capable of conducting a current of 1.5 times the value of the fuse without opening. If one of the input lines is connected to chassis ground, then the fuse must be in the other input line. CASE GROUNDING: The FC Series filters have a non-metallic case. It cannot be grounded. Each filter has a ground pin which must be connected, with as low an impedance as possible, to chassis ground in order for the filter to function properly. Input Shutdown Pin Many DC-DC converter modules have an input "shutdown", or "control" or "ON/OFF" pin. In most cases, the reference or return for this pin is the negative input pin of the module. When using such a system with an EMI filter module, the shutdown return must be made directly to the pin of the module, which is the output of the filter, and not at the input of the filter. This requires either an optical coupler or a relay, or other fully isolated device to control the module. There must not be any path for DC current to bypass the module, or its filtering characteristics will be severely compromised. In order to operate without the internal common mode inductors magnetically saturating, the positive leg and negative leg currents in the filter must exactly equal. Even a small imbalance, as small as 10 ma, can create saturation of the inductors. When this happens, they no longer function as filter elements.

Use of the Shutdown Pin With Input Filters Reflected Input Current The input reflected current can be reduced with the EMI filters. The amount of the reduction is determined by the quality of the capacitor across the input of the module. In most cases, this reduction will not be great at the switching frequency of the converter.

The voltage data presented uses a 50S LISN (Line Impedance Stabilization Network) and measures the input voltage spectrum from each input line of the converter to ground, using FCC and CISPR measurement techniques. The current data uses a 10 microfarad capacitor from each input line to ground, and measures the current in both lines simultaneously using the measurement technique defined in section 3.4.5, part B3 of the Bellcore document GR-1089-CORE. In each case, there was no external input filter. There was only an appropriate value capacitor across the input lines. The case of the unit under test was grounded to the reference ground plane, as was the output common of the unit. All spectra presented were taken with production grade modules, operating from 48 VDC at the full-rated output load current. Figure 15. Input Conducted EMI Voltage Test Circuit MCD10059 Rev. 1.1, 21-Jan-10 Page 27 of 41 www.power-one.com F & FC Series DC-DC Converter Input Filters FC Series, 0-100V, 5/10/20 Amps, TH Mount Figure 16. Input Conducted EMI Current Test Circuit An EMCO model 94430-1 current probe was used in this test circuit. The probe has a transfer impedance which is not constant with frequency. The transfer impedance, expressed in dBS, must be subtracted from the reading as measured on the spectrum analyzer in dBV, in order to obtain the true current, measured in dBA. Note that this is a common-mode current measurement, where both input lines to the unit under test are measured simultaneously. Figure 17. EMCO Model 94430-1 EMI Current Probe Transfer Impedance Curve MCD10059 Rev. 1.1, 21-Jan-10 Page 28 of 41 www.power-one.com F & FC Series DC-DC Converter Input Filters FC Series, 0-100V, 5/10/20 Amps, TH Mount Printed Circuit Board Design For optimum filtering, all shunt capacitors which are used in either the input or output circuits must be wired with "FourTerminal" techniques. Traces enter the node of the capacitor on one side of its pad (surface mount or discrete) and depart from the other side. Capacitors are never "Tee'd" from other traces. The traces feeding the capacitors should be close together and parallel. Never leave large loops in input (or output) and return traces in the printed circuit board designs for power converters. Large loops form large antennas; large antennas create the most radiated EMI. It is recommended that one layer of the board which carries the filter and converter(s) be dedicated as a ground plane. Preferably, this is the layer directly under the modules. It should extend out beyond the edges of the modules. The ground plane should be connected to earth ground, or to +Vin. Manufacturing Issues PROCESSING OF COMPLETED POWER MODULES The incorporation of completed power modules into assemblies, or installation into mother boards, can be handled by the conventional industry methods. The stanchions which are fabricated of PPS plastic, along with all the other component parts used, will withstand normal preheat temperatures associated with standard soldering operations. The most common method for mass soldering of the power supply to a mother board is "wave soldering" and should be profiled approximately as follows: 1. The solder pot should be set at 500 F and the conveyor should have a speed preset to insure that each section of the bottom side of the assembly dwells in the molten solder wave for 3 to 4 seconds. It is imperative that a correct temperature profile be used, not only to reduce solder defects but to eliminate any chance of thermal shock on the components. 2. The motherboard should attain a top side preheat temperature of 220 to 240 F before it enters the solder wave. The temperature change between the preheat and the soldering zones should be minimized. 3. The cooling rate after the solder wave should be similar in drop in temperature to the preheat rise. NOTES ON PROCESSING OF COMPLETED POWER MODULES Power-One through-hole pins are tin/lead plated and are easily soldered if all process parameters are met. However, in fluxing, the flux density, the activity and the ratio of flux foam to wave height must be closely monitored and controlled to maintain minimum solder defects. In controlling the solder profile, preheating of the assembly in two or three stages minimizes the thermal shock damage and increases the end life of the unit. If the power converters are to be hand soldered into the motherboard, a temperature controlled iron of 700 F (MAX) is recommended. While Power-One power converters generally spend about 3 seconds in the wave, they are designed to withstand soldering temperatures of 500 F for up to 10 seconds. If non-conventional methods are to be used to solder Power-One power supplies to the motherboard, contact Power-One Technical Support before proceeding.

Unlike most available off-the-shelf filter modules, the F4804 contains, in addition to common mode noise reduction components, a differential LC-filter stage, which guarantees compliance with conducted noise standards in the whole frequency range from 150 kHz to 30 MHz, including fundamental switching frequency and its harmonics. Test results show headroom of 15-20 dB for conducted noise quasi-peak levels, in relation to Class B requirements; see Figs. 2-8. The F4804 filter is designed specifically for distributed power solutions in conjunction with dc-dc converters. Low profile and small size (only 0.75 sq. in.) in a surface mount package helps the system designer save real estate on the system board, and simplifies the layout. A single F4804 filter can be used with multiple converters, and is capable of providing up to a nominal 4 A to the converter input bus. It can provide up to 3 A at 85 C ambient with no airflow.
