Summary
The IMS 15 series of board mountable 15 Watt DC-DC con-
verters has been designed according to the latest industry
requirements and standards. The converters are particu-
larly suitable for applications in industry and telecommuni-
cations where variable input voltages or high transient
voltages are prevalent.
Providing two wide input voltage ranges, 14...36 V DC and
36...75 V DC, the units are available with single, dual and
electrically isolated double outputs allowing the configura-
tion of output voltages from 3.3 up to 48 V DC externally ad-
justable, with flexible load distribution on dual and double
output units. A shut down input allows remote converter on/
off. Features include efficient input and output filtering with
unsurpassed transient and surge protection, low output rip-
ple and noise, consistently high efficiency over the entire
input voltage range, high reliability as well as excellent dy-
namic response to load and line changes.
The converters provide supplementary insulation with
SELV outputs as e.g. required in battery supported systems
where the bus voltage may exceed the SELV limit of
60 V DC. They are designed, built and approved according
to the international safety standards IEC/EN 60950, UL
1950, CAN/CSA C22.2 No.950-95.
The circuit comprises of integrated planar magnetics and
all components are automatically assembled and solidly
soldered onto a single PCB without any wire connections.
The proprietary magnetic feedback solution ensures maxi-
mum reliability and repeatability in the control loop over all
operating conditions. Careful considerations of possible
thermal stresses ensure the absence of hot spots providing
long life in environments where temperature cycles are a
reality. The thermal design allows operation at full load up to
an ambient temperature of 71°C in free air without using
any potting material. An extended temperature range –
40...71°C is available as an option. For extremely high vi-
bration environments the case has holes for screw mount-
ing.

Functional Description
DC-DC Converters
IMS 15 Series
The IMS 15 series of DC-DC converters are magnetic feed-
back controlled flyback converters using current mode
PWM (Pulse Width Modulation). The -05- and -0503- output
voltage versions feature an active magnetic feedback loop
via a pulse transformer which results in very tight regulation
of the output voltage (see fig.:
Block diagram, single and
-0503- output types).
The output voltages of these versions
can be adjusted via the R input. The R input is referenced to
the secondary side and allows for programming of the out-
put voltages in the range of approximately 80 to 105% of
U
o nom
using either an external resistor or an external volt-
age source.
The voltage regulation on the dual and double output ver-
sions is achieved with a passive transformer feedback from
the main transformer (see fig.:
Block diagram, for double
output types).
The output voltages can be adjusted via the
Trim input. The Trim input is referenced to the primary side
of the converter and allows for programming of the output
voltages in the range 100 to 105% of
U
o nom
by an external
resistor or within 75 to 105% using an external voltage
source.The load regulation output characteristic allows for
paralleling of one or several double output units of equal
output voltages.
Current limitation is provided by the primary circuit, thus
limiting the total output power of double output types to
approx. 130% of
P
o nom
(see:
Type Survey).
The shut down
input allows remote converter on/off.
Overtemperature protection will shut down the unit in ex-
cessive overload conditions with automatic restart approxi-
mately every 50 to 60 ms.

Input Transient Voltage Protection
DC-DC Converters
IMS 15 Series
A built-in suppressor diode provides effective protection
against input transients which may be caused for example
by short-circuits accross the input lines where the network
inductance may cause high energy pulses.

Reverse Polarity Protection at the Input
The built-in suppressor diode also provides for reverse po-
larity protection at the input by conducting current in the re-
verse direction. An external fuse is required to limit this cur-
rent.
– For 24 IMS 15 types a fast 3.15 A (F3.15A) fuse is
recommended.
– For 48 IMS 15 types a fast 2 A (F2A) fuse is recom-
mended.
For very high energy transients as for example to achieve
IEC/EN 61000-4-5 or ETR 283 (19 Pfl1) compliance (as per
table
:Electromagnetic Immunity)
an external inductor and
capacitor are required.
