AFL50XXS SERIES
HYBRID-HIGH RELIABILITY
DC-DC CONVERTER
50V Input, Single Output
Description
The AFL Series of DC-DC converters feature high power
density with no derating over the full military temperature
range. This series is offered as part of a complete family
of converters providing single and dual output voltages
and operating from nominal+28V, +50V, +120V or +270V
inputs with output power ranging from 80W to 120W. For
applications requiring higher output power, individual converters
can be operated in parallel. The internal current sharing
circuits assure equal current distribution among the paralleled
converters. This series incorporates International Rectifier’s
proprietary magnetic pulse feedback technology providing
optimum dynamic line and load regulation response. This
feedback system samples the output voltage at the pulse
width modulator fixed clock frequency, nominally 550 kHz.
Multiple converters can be synchronized to a system clock
in the 500 kHz to 700 kHz range or to the synchronization
output of one converter. Under voltage lockout, primary
and secondary referenced inhibit, soft-start and load fault
protection are provided on all models.
These converters are hermetically packaged in two enclosure
variations, utilizing copper core pins to minimize resistive
DC losses. Three lead styles are available, each fabricated with
International Rectifier’s rugged ceramic lead-to-package
seal assuring long term hermetically in the most harsh
environments.
Manufactured in a facility fully qualified to MIL-PRF-38534, these
converters are fabricated utilizing DLA Land and Maritime
qualified processes. For available screening options, refer to
device screening table in the data sheet.
Variations in electrical, mechanical and screening specifications
can be accommodated. Contact IR HiRel San Jose for special
requirements.

100s.
4. Turn-on delay is measured with an input voltage rise time of between 100V and 500V per millisecond.
5. Current limit point is that condition of excess load causing output voltage to drop to 90% of nominal.

Circuit Operation and Application Information
The AFL series of converters employ a forward switched
mode converter topology. (refer to Fig I.) Operation of the
device is initiated when a DC voltage whose magnitude is
within the specified input limits is applied between pins 1
and 2. If pin 4 is enabled (at a logical 1 or open) the primary bias
supply will begin generating a regulated housekeeping
voltage bringing the circuitry on the primary side of the
converter to life. A power MOSFET is used to chop the
DC input voltage into a high frequency square wave, applying
this chopped voltage to the power transformer at the
nominal converter switching frequency. Maintaining a DC
voltage within the specified operating range at the input
assures continuous generation of the primary bias voltage.
The switched voltage impressed on the secondary output
transformer winding is rectified and filtered to generate the
converter DC output voltage. An error amplifier on the secondary
side compares the output voltage to a precision reference and
generates an error signal proportional to the difference. This error
signal is magnetically coupled through the feedback transformer
into the controller section of the converter varying the
pulse width of the square wave signal driving the
MOSFET, narrowing the width if the output voltage is too
high and widening it if it is too low, thereby regulating the
output voltage.
Inhibiting Converter Output (Enable)
As an alternative to application and removal of the DC
voltage to the input, the user can control the converter
output by providing TTL compatible, positive logic signals
to either of two enable pins (pin 4 or 12). The distinction
between these two signal ports is that enable 1 (pin 4) is
referenced to the input return (pin 2) while enable 2 (pin
12) is referenced to the output return (pin 8). Thus, the
user has access to an inhibit function on either side of the
isolation barrier. Each port is internally pulled “high” so
that when not used, an open connection on both enable
pins permits normal converter operation. When their use is
desired, a logical “low” on either port will shut the converter down.

Remote Sensing
Connection of the + and - sense leads at a remotely located load
permits compensation for excessive resistance between
the converter output and the load when their physical
separation could cause undesirable voltage drop. This
connection allows regulation to the placard voltage at of
application. When the remote sensing feature is not used,
the sense lead should be connected to their respective
output terminals at the converter. Fig. III. illustrates a typical
remotely sensed application.
