The MacroDens™ PKF family of true component
level on-board DC/DC power modules are intended
as distributed power sources in decentralized power
systems. Utilization of thick film technology and a
high degree of silicon integration has made it possible
to achieve a MTTF of more than 10 million hours.
The high reliability and the very low heights of these
DC/DC power modules makes them particularly
suited for Information Technology and Telecom
(IT&T) applications, with board spacing down to
15 mm or 0.6 in. They are optimized for an
operational ambient temperature range in compliance
with present and future application needs, including
non temperature controlled environments. The
mechanical design offers surface mount and through-
hole versions, delivered in ready-to-use tubes, trays or
tape & reel packages, and compatibility with semi and
fully aqueous cleaning processes. The PKF series is
manufactured in highly automated production lines
using SMT, laser trimming, 100% burn-in and ATE
final inspection.
Ericsson Microelectronics AB has been an ISO 9001
certified supplier since 1991. For a complete product
program please reference the back cover.

Thermal Data
Two-parameter model
This model provides a more precise description of the thermal char-
acteristics to be used for thermal calculations.
Thermally the power module can be considered as a component and
the case temperature can be used to characterize the properties. The
thermal data for a power module with the substrate in contact with
the case can be described with two thermal resistances. One from
case to ambient air and one from case to PB (Printed circuit Board).
The thermal characteristics temperature can be calculated from the
following formula:
T

Reflow Soldering Information
The PKF series of DC/DC power modules are manufactured in sur-
face mount technology. Extra precautions must therefore be taken
when reflow soldering the surface mount version. Neglecting the
soldering information given below may result in permanent damage
or significant degradation of power module performance.
The PKF series can be reflow soldered using IR, Natural Convection,
Forced Convection or Combined IR/Convection Technologies. The
high thermal mass of the component and its effect on
DT
(°C) re-
quires that particular attention be paid to other temperature sensi-
tive components.
IR Reflow technology may require the overall profile time to be
extended to approximately 8–10 minutes to ensure an acceptable
DT.
Higher activity flux may be more suitable to overcome the
increase in oxidation and to avoid flux burn-up.
The general profile parameters detailed in the diagram, with this ex-
tended time to reach peak temperatures, would then be suitable.
Note!
These are maximum parameters. Depending on process varia-
tions, an appropriate margin must be added.

Palladium plating is used on the terminal pins. A pin temperature (T
p
)
in excess of the solder fusing temperature (+183°C for Sn/Pb 63/37)
for more than 25 seconds and a peak temperature above 195°C, is
required to guarantee a reliable solder joint.
Both pin 1 and pin 11 must be monitored.
No responsibility is assumed if these recommendations are not
strictly followed.
