Typical unit
For efficient, fully isolated DC power in the smallest space, the UCE
open frame DC-DC converter series fit in industry-standard “eighth
brick” outline dimensions and mounting pins (on quarter-brick pinout).
PRODUCT OVERVIEW
Units are offered with fixed output voltages from
1.5 to 12 Volts and currents up to 30 Amps. UCEs
operate over a wide temperature range (up to +85
degrees Celsius at moderate airflow) with full rated
power. Interleaved synchronous rectifier topology
yields excellent efficiency over 90% and no reverse
output conduction.
UCEs achieve these impressive mechanical and
environmental specs while delivering excellent
electrical performance in a through-hole package.
Overall noise is typically 50 mV pk-pk (low voltage
models) with fast step response. These converters
offer tight output regulation and high stability even
with no load. The unit is fully protected against
input undervoltage, output overcurrent and short
circuit. An on-board temperature sensor shuts

down the converter if thermal limits are reached.
“Hiccup” output protection automatically restarts
the converter when the fault is removed.
A convenient remote On/Off control input enables
phased startup and shutdown in multi-voltage ap-
plications. To compensate for longer wiring and to
retain output voltage accuracy at the load, UCEs em-
ploy a Sense input to dynamically correct for ohmic
losses. A trim input may be connected to a user’s
adjustment potentiometer or trim resistors for output
voltage calibration. The UCE will tolerate substantial
capacitive loading for bypass-cap applications.
UCEs include industry-standard safety certifica-
tions and BASIC I/O insulation provides input/output
isolation to 2250V. Radiation emission testing is
performed to widely-accepted EMC standards.

PERFORMANCE SPECIFICATION NOTES
(1) All models are tested and specified with external 1||10 μF ceramic/tantalum output capaci-
tors and no external input capacitor. All capacitors are low ESR types. These capacitors are
necessary to accommodate our test equipment and may not be required to achieve specified
performance in your applications. All models are stable and regulate within spec under no-load
conditions.
General conditions for Specifications are +25 deg.C, V
IN
= nominal, V
OUT
= nominal, full load.
Adequate airflow must be supplied for extended testing under power.
(2) Input Ripple Current is tested and specified over a 5 Hz to 20 MHz bandwidth. Input filtering
is C
IN
= 33 μF, 100V tantalum, C
BUS
= 220 μF, 100V electrolytic, L
BUS
= 12 μH.
(3) Note that Maximum Power Derating curves indicate an average current at nominal input
voltage. At higher temperatures and/or lower airflow, the DC-DC converter will tolerate brief
full current outputs if the total RMS current over time does not exceed the Derating curve. All
Derating curves are presented at sea level altitude. Be aware of reduced power dissipation
with increasing density altitude.
(4) Mean Time Before Failure is calculated using the Telcordia (Belcore) SR-332 Method 1, Case
3, ground fixed conditions, Tpcboard=+25 deg.C, full output load, natural air convection.
(5) The On/Off Control is normally controlled by a switch. But it may also be driven with exter-
nal logic or by applying appropriate external voltages which are referenced to Input Common.
The On/Off Control Input should use either an open collector or open drain transistor.
(6) Short circuit shutdown begins when the output voltage degrades approximately 2% from
the selected setting.
(7) The outputs are not intended to sink appreciable reverse current. This may damage the
outputs.
(8) Output noise may be further reduced by adding an external filter. See I/O Filtering and Noise
Reduction.
(9) All models are fully operational and meet published specifications, including “cold start” at
–40ºC.
(10) Regulation specifications describe the deviation as the line input voltage or output load
current is varied from a nominal midpoint value to either extreme.
(11) Alternate pin length and/or other output voltages are available under special quantity order.
(12) Output overvoltage is non-latching. When the overvoltage fault is removed, the converter
will immediately recover.
(13) Do not exceed maximum power specifications when adjusting the output trim.
(14) At zero output current, the output may contain low frequency components which exceed
the ripple specification. The output may be operated indefinitely with no load.
(15) If reverse polarity is accidentally applied to the input, a body diode will become forward bi-
ased and will conduct considerable current. To ensure reverse input protection with full output
load, always connect an external input fuse in series with the +V
IN
input.
