PRODUCT OVERVIEW
The HEN D12 Series of non-isolated eighth bricks with high di/dt are ideal
building blocks for emerging, on-board power-distribution schemes in which isolated
12V buses deliver power to any number of non-isolated, step-down buck regulators.
HEN D12 DC/DC's accept a 12V input (10.2V to 13.8V input range) and convert it,
with the highest efficiency in the smallest space, to a 0.8, 1, 1.2, 1.5, 1.8, 2, 2.5, 3.3 or 5 Volt
output fully rated at 25 Amps.
HEN D12's are ideal POLPP's (point-of-use/load power processors) and they typically require
no external components. They occupy the standard eighth-brick board space (0.9" x 2.3") and
come in either through-hole packages or surface-mount packages with a profile of only 0.39
inches (0.5" including optional heat sink).
The HEN's best-in-class power density is achieved with a fully synchronous,
fixed-frequency, 2-phase buck topology that delivers extremely high efficiency (92.5%
for 5VOUT models), low noise (10mVp-p typ.), extremely tight line/load regulation
(±0.05%/0.1%max.), fast transient response (50A/µsec with full-load step), stable
no-load operation, and no output reverse conduction.
The fully functional HEN's feature input over/undervoltage lockout, output overvoltage and
overcurrent detection, continuous short-circuit protection, overtemperature protection, an
output-voltage trim function, a remote on/off control pin, and a sense pin. High efficiency
enables the HEN D12's to deliver rated output currents of
25 Amps at ambient temperatures to +65°C with 200 lfm air flow without heat sink.
If your new system boards call for multiple supply voltages, check out the
economics of on-board 12V distributed power. If you don't need to pay for multiple
isolation barriers, DATEL's non-isolated 1/4- and 1/8-bricks will save you money. Selected
models are RoHS-6 (Restriction of Hazardous Substances) compliant.

Return Current Paths
The HEN D12 are non-isolated DC/DC converters. Their Common pins (pins
1, 6 and 8) are connected to each other internally (see Figure 1). To the
extent possible (with the intent of minimizing ground loops), input return
current should be directed through pin 1 (also referred to as –Input or Input
Return), and output return current should be directed through pin 6 and 8
(also referred to as –Output or Output Return). Any on/off control signals
applied to pin 4 (On/Off Control) should be referenced to Common
(specifically pin 1).
I/O Filtering and Noise Reduction
All models in the HEN D12 Series are tested and specified with external
33µF tantalum input and output capacitors. These capacitors are necessary
to accommodate our test equipment and may not be required to achieve
desired performance in your application. The HEN D12's are designed with
high-quality, high-performance
internal
I/O caps, and will operate within
spec in most applications with
no additional external components.
In particular, the HEN D12's input capacitors are specified for low ESR and
are fully rated to handle the units' input ripple currents. Similarly, the inter-
nal output capacitors are specified for low ESR and full-range frequency
response. As shown in the Performance Curves, removal of the external
33µF tantalum output caps has minimal effect on output noise.
In critical applications, input/output ripple/noise may be further reduced
using filtering techniques, the simplest being the installation of external I/O
caps.

HEN D12 Models
External input capacitors serve primarily as energy-storage devices. They
minimize high-frequency variations in input voltage (usually caused by IR
drops in conductors leading to the DC/DC) as the switching converter draws
pulses of current. Input capacitors should be selected for bulk capacitance
(at appropriate frequencies), low ESR, and high rms-ripple-current ratings.
The switching nature of modern DC/DC's requires that the dc input voltage
source have low ac impedance and the frequencies of interest. Highly
inductive source impedances can greatly affect system stability. Your spe-
cific system configuration may necessitate additional considerations.
Output ripple/noise (also referred to as periodic and random deviations
or PARD) may be reduced below specified limits with the installation of
additional external output capacitors. Output capacitors function as true
filter elements and should be selected for bulk capacitance, low ESR, and
appropriate frequency response. Any scope measurements of PARD should
be made directly at the DC/DC output pins with scope probe ground less
than 0.5" in length.
All external capacitors should have appropriate voltage ratings and be
located as close to the converters as possible. Temperature variations for all
relevant parameters should be taken into consideration.
The most effective combination of external I/O capacitors will be a function
of your line voltage and source impedance, as well as your particular load
and layout conditions. Our Applications Engineers can recommend potential
solutions and discuss the possibility of our modifying a given device’s
internal filtering to meet your specific requirements. Contact our Applications
Engineering Group for additional details.
Input Fusing
Most applications and or safety agencies require the installation of fuses
at the inputs of power conversion components. HEN D12 Series DC/DC
converters are not internally fused. Therefore, input fusing is mandatory for
safety reasons, and safety agencies require a time delay fuse with a value
no greater than 40Amps, which should be installed within the ungrounded
input path to the converter.
As a rule of thumb however, we recommend to use a normal-blow or slow-
blow fuse with a typical value of about twice the maximum input current,
calculated at low line with the converters minimum efficiency.
Safety Considerations
HEN D12's are non-isolated DC/DC converters. In general, all DC/DC's
must be installed, including considerations for I/O voltages and spacing/
separation requirements, in compliance with relevant safety-agency speci-
fications (usually UL/IEC/EN60950).
In particular, for a non-isolated converter's output voltage to meet SELV
(safety extra low voltage) requirements, its input must be SELV compliant.
If the output needs to be ELV (extra low voltage), the input must be ELV.
Start-Up Time
The V
IN
to V
OUT
Start-Up Time is the interval between the time at which a
ramping input voltage crosses the lower limit of the specified input voltage
range (10.2 Volts) and the fully loaded output voltage enters and remains
within its specified accuracy band. Actual measured times will vary with
input source impedance, external input capacitance, and the slew rate and
final value of the input voltage as it appears to the converter.

OUT
Start-Up Time assumes the converter is turned off via
the On/Off Control with the nominal input voltage already applied to the
converter. The specification defines the interval between the time at which
the converter is turned on and the fully loaded output voltage enters and
remains within its specified accuracy band. See Typical Performance
Curves.
Remote Sense
HEN D12 Series DC/DC converters offer an output sense function on pin 10.
The sense function enables point-of-use regulation for overcoming moder-
ate IR drops in conductors and/or cabling. Since these are non-isolated
devices whose inputs and outputs usually share the same ground plane,
sense is provided only for the +Output.
The remote sense line is part of the feedback control loop regulating the
DC/DC converter’s output. The sense line carries very little current and
consequently requires a minimal cross-sectional-area conductor. As such,
it is not a low-impedance point and must be treated with care in layout and
cabling. Sense lines should be run adjacent to signals (preferably ground),
and in cable and/or discrete-wiring applications, twisted-pair or similar
techniques should be used. To prevent high frequency voltage differences
between V
OUT
and Sense, we recommend installation of a 1000pF capacitor
close to the converter.
The sense function is capable of compensating for voltage drops between
the +Output and +Sense pins that do not exceed 10% of V
OUT
.
[V
OUT

≤
10%V
OUT
Power derating (output current limiting) is based upon maximum output
current and voltage at the converter's output pins. Use of trim and sense
functions can cause the output voltage to increase, thereby increasing
output power beyond the converter's specified rating. Therefore:
(V
OUT
at pins) x (I
OUT
)
≤
rated output power
The internal 10Ω resistor between +Sense and +Output (see Figure 1)
serves to protect the sense function by limiting the output current flowing
through the sense line if the main output is disconnected. It also prevents
output voltage runaway if the sense connection is disconnected.
Note: If devices have the +Sense pin (pin 10) installed (no part-number
suffix) and the sense function is not used for remote regulation, +Sense
(pin 10) must be tied to +Output (pin 7, 9) at the DC/DC converter pins.

HEN D12 Models
Series DC/DC converters are designed so that they are enabled when the
control pin is left open (or pulled low to 0 to +0.4V) and disabled when the
control pin is pulled high (+2.8V to +V
IN
). As shown in Figure 2, all models
have an internal 20kΩ pull-down resistor to Common (ground).
Dynamic control of the on/off function is best accomplished with a mechan-
ical relay or open-collector/open-drain drive circuit (optically isolated if
appropriate). The drive circuit should be able to sink appropriate current
when activated and withstand appropriate voltage when deactivated.
The on/off control can be driven using a circuit comparable to that shown in
Figure 2. Leaving the On/Off control pin open or applying a voltage between
0V and +0.4V will turn on the converter. Applied voltages between +2.8V
and +V
IN
will disable the converter.
Power-up sequencing
If a controlled start-up of one or more HEN D12 Series DC/DC converters
is required, or if several output voltages need to be powered-up in a given
sequence, the On/Off control pin can be pulled high to +V
IN
with an external
5.6kΩ resistor. While input voltage and/or other converters are ramping up,
the control pin is pulled high and the converter remains disabled. To enable
the output voltage, the control pin needs to be pulled low in the configura-
tion shown in Figure 3.
Single Output, Non Isolated, 12VIN, 0.8-5VOUT
25 Amp, High di/dt DC/DC Converters
D12's internal overcurrent-detection circuitry immediately turns off the
converter, which then goes into a "hiccup" mode. While hiccupping, the
converter will continuously attempt to restart itself, go into overcurrent, and
then shut down. Under these conditions, both the average output current
and the average input current will be kept extremely low. Once the output
short is removed, the converter will automatically restart itself.
Output Voltage Trimming
Allowable trim ranges are ±10%. Trimming is accomplished with either a
trimpot or a single fixed resistor. The trimpot should be connected between
+Output and Common with its wiper connected to the Trim pin as shown in
Figure 4 below.
A trimpot can be used to determine the value of a single fixed resistor
which can then be connected, as shown in Figure 5, between the Trim pin
and +Output to trim down the output voltage, or between the Trim pin and
Common to trim up the output voltage. Fixed resistors should have absolute
TCR’s less than 100ppm/°C to ensure stability.
The equations below can be starting points for selecting specific trim-resistor
values. Recall, untrimmed devices are guaranteed to be ±1.5% accurate.
Adjustment beyond the specified ±10% adjustment range is not recommended.

or a fixed trim-down

Output Overvoltage Protection
The HEN D12 Series output voltage is monitored. If the output voltage
rises to a level, which could be damaging to the load, the internal sensing
circuitry will power down the PWM controller causing the output voltage
to decrease. Following a time-out period the PWM will restart, causing
the output voltage to ramp to its appropriate value. If the fault condition
persists, and the output voltage again climbs to excessive levels, the over-
voltage circuitry will initiate another shutdown cycle. This on/off cycling is
referred to as "hiccup" mode.
Output Overcurrent Detection
Overloading the power converter's output for an extended time will invari-
ably cause internal component temperatures to exceed their maximum
ratings and eventually lead to component failure. High-current-carrying
components such as inductors, FET's and diodes are at the highest risk.
HEN D12 Series DC/DC converters incorporate an output overcurrent detec-
tion and shutdown function that serves to protect both the power converter
and its load.
If the output current exceeds it maximum rating by typically 40% (35 Amps)
or if the output voltage drops to less than 98% of it original value, the HEN
