  • Communication Systems Product Description The VI Chip® PRMTM Regulator is a high e ciency converter, operating from a 38.0 to 55.0 Vdc input to generate a regulated 20.0 to 55.0 Vdc output. The ZVS buck-boost topology enables high switching frequency (~ 1.03 MHz) operation with high conversion e ciency. High switching frequency reduces the size of reactive components enabling power density up to

1676 W/in

The Half VI Chip package is compatible with standard pick-and- place and surface mount assembly processes with a planar thermal interface area and superior thermal conductivity. The MPRM48NH480M250A00 is optimized for operation with MIL-COTs BCMs in MIL-STD-704 E/F 270 VDC systems. In a

270 VDC system, the upstream BCM provides an interface and

isolation between the high voltage DC bus and the PRM, conv erting the input down by a fixed ratio. The downstream PRM and VTMTM current multiplier minimize distribution and conversion losses in a high power solution, providing an isolated, regulated output voltage. The MPRM48NH480M250A00 has two selectable modes of regulation depending on the application requirements. In Adaptive Loop Operation, the MPRM48NH480M250A00 utilizes a unique feed-forward scheme that enables precise regulation of an isolated POL voltage without the need for remote sensing and voltage feedback. In Remote Sense Operation, the internal regulation circuitry is disabled, and an external control loop and current sensor maintain regulation. This a ords flexibility in the design of both voltage and current compensation loops to optimize performance in the end application.

ENABLE This pin turns the supply on and off. The pin is both an input and an output and can provide the following features: n Delayed Start: upon application of voltage (>UVLO) to the module power input and after t off, the ENABLE pin will source a constant 90μA current. n Output enable: When ENABLE is allowed to pull up above the enable threshold, the ENABLE pin will pull up to 5V with 1.8mA source capability, and the module will be enabled. n Output disable: ENABLE may be pulled down externally in order to disable the module. Pull down resistance should be less than 235Ω to SGND. n Fault detection flag: The ENABLE 5V voltage source is internally turned off when a fault condition is detected . ENABLE control should be implemented using an open collector configuration. It is not recommended to drive this pin externally. VAUX: Auxiliary Voltage Source Use this pin to power external devices with a non-isolated 9V supply, with up to 5mA load capability, switched with ENABLE input. Do not place a capacitor over 0.04µF on this pin. SGND: Signal Ground This is a low current pin which provides a Kelvin connection to the PRMs internal signal ground. Use this pin as the ground reference for external circuitry and signals to avoid voltage drops caused by high currents on power returns. In array configurations, SGND pins should be star connected at a single point. A series resistor (~1Ω) to the star location is recommended to decouple return currents. VC: VTM Control This output pin is used to temporarily provide VCC voltage to connected VTMs during start up. The pulse is nominally 14V, 10ms wide. A VTM can self-power once its input voltage reaches its minimum specified input voltage. The PRM output must be checked to make sure it reaches this threshold voltage before the VC pulse expires. TRIM The TRIM pin is used to select the operating mode and to trim the PRM output when Adaptive Loop operating mode is selected. The TRIM pin has an internal pull-up to V CC_INT through a 10kΩ resistor. Operating Mode Select: If TRIM is pulled below 0.45V during the first startup after VIN is applied, Remote Sense / Slave operation is selected. Otherwise, Adaptive Loop operation is selected. This selection persists until V INis removed from the part, and is not changed by fault or disable events. Output Voltage Trim: Sets the output voltage of the PRM in Adaptive Loop operation. If TRIM is permitted to pull up to 3.20V or higher during start up, trim is disabled, and the output is set to the nominal of 48.0V. If TRIM is held between 1.00V to 2.75V during start up, trim is enabled, and the output is scaled by a factor of 20resulting in an output voltage range of 20.0V to 55.0V. This selection persists until the PRM is restarted with the ENABLE pin, or due to fault auto-recovery. AL: Adaptive Loop (Adaptive Loop Operation) This input pin allows you to set the Adaptive Loop load line. Every volt on this pin represents 1.0Ω of positive output slope. There is an internal 10kΩ pullup resistor to V CC_INT. If AL is permitted to pull up to 3.20V or higher during start up, the Adaptive Loop load line is disabled. This selection persists until the PRM is restarted with the ENABLE pin, or due to fault auto-recovery. VT: VTM Temperature (Adaptive Loop Operation) This pin is used in the Adaptive Loop compensation algorithm to account for the VTM output resistance variation as a function of temperature. The VTM TM pin provides this voltage, scaled as the temperature in K (Kelvin) divided by 100, so 25°C is 2.98V. Leave disconnected or pull below 1.9V to disable. The adjustment is fixed at 0.3%/°C relative to the value at 25°C REF: Reference (Adaptive Loop Operation) This output pin allows you to monitor the internal reference voltage in Adaptive Loop Operation. During normal operation it represents the output voltage scaled by a factor of 20. In Adaptive Loop Operation this pin is for monitoring purposes only and should not be driven or loaded externally. REF_EN: Reference Enable (Remote Sense Operation) In Remote Sense Operation this pin outputs a regulated 3.25V, 4mA voltage source. It is enabled only after successful start up of the PRM powertrain. REF_EN is intended to power the output current transducer and also the voltage reference for the external control loop. Powering the reference generator with REF_EN helps provide a controlled start up, since the output voltage of the system is able to track the reference level as it comes up. SHARE (Adaptive Loop and Slave Operation) This bus sets the output current level for all the PRM modules when operating in an array (master-slave configuration). Connect them together among the modules in the shared bus. One PRM should be configured as a master by connecting TRIM for Adaptive Loop Operation. All other PRMs should be configured as slaves by pulling their respective TRIM pins low. This pin can be used to monitor the error voltage externally. 0 to 100% load is represented by a voltage between 0.79V and 7.40V. CONTROL NODE (Remote Sense Operation) In Remote Sense Operation, this is the input to the modulator which determines the powertrain timing and ultimately the module output power. An internal 0.5mA current sink is always active. The bi- directional buffer between CONTROL NODE and the modulator has two states. In normal operation, CONTROL NODE will be above the 0.79V switching threshold, and will drive the modulator through the buffer. An internal 7.40V clamp determines the maximum output power that can be requested of the modulator.

Rev 1.1 vicorpower.comMIL-COTS PRMTM Regulator Page 29 of 44 09/2015 800 927.9474 M PRM48NH480M250A00 When CONTROL NODE falls below 0.79V, the converter will stop switching. An internal circuit clamps the modulator input to 7.40V, and a buffer will source up to 2.5mA out of the pin at that clamp level. For this reason, the output impedance of the amplifier driving CONTROL NODE must be taken into account. A rail-to-rail operational amplifier with low output impedance is always recommended. The powertrain small signal (plant) response consists of a single pole determined by the load resistance, the powertrain equivalent output resistance, and the total output capacitance (internal and external to the module). Both the modulator gain and the equivalent output resistance vary as a function of line, load and output voltage. As the load increases, the powertrain pole moves to higher frequency. As a result, the closed loop crossover frequency will be the highest at full load and lowest at minimum load. Figure 24 shows a reference AC small-signal model. IFB: Current Feedback (Remote Sense Operation) In Remote Sense Operation, IFB is the input for the module output overcurrent protection and current limit features. A voltage proportional to the powertrain output current must be applied to IFB in order for overcurrent protection to operate properly. If the IFB voltage exceeds the IFB pin’s overcurrent protection threshold, the powertrain will stop switching. If the IFB voltage falls below the overcurrent protection threshold within t BLANKtime, then the powertrain will immediately resume switching. Otherwise a fault is detected. The current limit threshold for the IFB pin is set lower than the protection threshold. When the IFB pin average voltage exceeds the current limit threshold, an internal integrator will activate a clamp amplifier which overrides the modulator input maximum level. This causes the powertrain to maintain a constant output current. The bandwidth of this current limit integrator is significantly slower than that of the CONTROL NODE input. Therefore this current limit cannot be used in lieu of properly compensating the (external) control loop to avoid exceeding maximum current or power ratings for the device. Design Guidelines The MPRM48NH480M250A00regulator is specifically designed to provide a controlled Factorized Bus distribution voltage for powering downstream VTM Transformer — fast, efficient, isolated, low noise Point-of-Load (POL) converters. The MPRM48NH480M250A00can be configured for two operating modes depending on the type of regulation required. In Adaptive Loop Operation the regulation circuitry is enabled within the device and regulates the voltage at the output terminals. The M PRM48NH480M250A00has a programmable Adaptive Loop load line which can be used to compensate for downstream VTM output resistance allowing for precise point of load regulation without the need for remote sensing. In Remote Sense Operation, the internal regulation circuitry is disabled and the voltage regulation circuitry is provided externally allowing for remote sensing directly at the point of load. In certain applications Remote Sense Operation can improve regulation accuracy, and allow for operating with high amounts of load capacitance and optimizing load transient response. Operating Mode Selection The operating mode is selected through use of the TRIM pin. When the part is first enabled after V INis applied, the TRIM voltage is sampled. The TRIM pin has an internal pull up resistor to VCC_INT, so unless external circuitry pulls the pin voltage lower, it will float up to V CC_INT. If TRIM is pulled lower than 0.45V during the first startup after V INis applied, the part will be configured for Remote Sense / Slave Operation, where the internal voltage regulation circuitry is disabled. In this case, for all subsequent operation the part will output a voltage dependent on the SHARE / CONTROL NODE voltage provided externally (either from an external regulation circuit or master PRM). To configure the part for Remote Sense or Slave Operation, connect the TRIM pin to SGND. It is recommended to make this connection through a 0 Ω jumper for troubleshooting purposes. If the sampled TRIM voltage is higher than 0.55V during the first startup after V INis applied, then the part will be configured for Adaptive Loop Operation, and the internal voltage regulation circuitry is enabled. The PRM will output a voltage dependent on the TRIM voltage, and will remain in this mode for as long as V INis applied. To configure the part for Adaptive Loop Operation, leave the TRIM pin disconnected, or apply a voltage/resistance within the specified range. The operating mode is detected and detected during the first start up after V INis applied. This selection persists until VINis removed from the part, and is not changed by fault or disable events. Changing the operating mode can only be done by removing V IN. VCN · G CN COUT_INT VCN ICN_LOW RCN rEQ_OUT rEQ_IN VIN CIN_INT CONTROL NODE Output Figure 24 — MPRM48NH480M250A00 AC small signal model

Up to 5PRMs of the same type may be placed in parallel to expand the power capacity of the system. One PRM is designated as the master and contains the active control loop which considers control pin inputs and drives SHARE. The other PRMs listen to SHARE and act as slave powertrains only. The following high-level guidelines must be followed in order for the resultant system to start up and operate properly, and to avoid overstress or exceeding any absolute maximum ratings. n One PRM must be designated as a master through configuring the TRIM pin voltage within the recommended range. n All other PRMs must be designated as slave PRMs by tying TRIM pins to SGND. It is recommended to make this connection through a 0 Ω jumper for troubleshooting purposes. n All PRMs in the array must be powered from a common power source so that the input voltage to each PRM is the same. The IN pins of all PRMs must be connected together. n An independent fuse for each PRM +IN connection is required to maintain safety certifications (see Fusing section). n An independent inductor for each PRM +IN connection is recommended when used in an array, to control circulating currents among the PRM inputs and reduce the impact of beat frequencies. n Mismatches in both inductance, and resistance from the common power source to each PRM should be minimized. n ENABLE pins must be connected together for start up synchronization and proper fault response of the array. n SHARE pins must be connected together to enable sharing. The bandwidth requirements of SHARE are low enough that the bus can be considered a lumped element, rather than a transmission line, and so star connections to the master PRM with stubs, as well as daisy chain connections are permitted. n The resistances between slave unit SHARE pins and the master’s should be well matched, to avoid introducing additional sharing mismatches. The SHARE bus should not be routed under any PRM. SHARE bus parasitic capacitance to +IN or +OUT should be minimized. n SGND of the master PRM is the reference for all control loop functions. The SGND pins of each slave PRMs should be connected to the SGND reference node on the board through a 1Ω resistor. n When operating within an array, the master PRM is rated for full power while the slave PRMs are de-rated to the array rated power and current values provided for Slave Operation OUT_ARRAY,IOUT_ARRAY). The number of PRMs required to achieve a given array capacity must consider these de-ratings to avoid overstressing any PRM in the array. n Adaptive Loop design procedures above will hold for an array, in general, although some parameters must be scaled against the number of PRMs in the system. Arrays of more than 5PRMs may be possible through use of external circuitry. Please contact Vicor Applications for assistance with array sizing above 5units.

These two external circuits are illustrated in Figure 37, which shows an example of the PRM in a standalone application with local voltage feedback and high side current sensing. In general, these circuits include a precision voltage reference, an operational amplifier which provides closed loop feedback compensation, and a high side current sense circuit which includes a shunt and current sense IC. The following design procedures refer to the circuit shown in Figure 37. Setting the Output Voltage Level (Remote Sense Operation) The output voltage setpoint is a function of the voltage reference and the output voltage sense ratio. With reference to Figure 37, R1 and R2 form the output voltage sensing divider which provides the scaled output voltage to the negative input of the error amplifier; a dedicated reference IC provides the reference voltage to the positive input of the error amplifier. Under normal operation, the error amplifier will keep the voltages at the inverting and non-inverting inputs equal, and therefore the output voltage is defined by: (5) Note that the component R1 will also factor into the compensation as described in a later section. It is important to apply proper slew rate to the reference voltage rise when the control loop is initially enabled. The recommended range for reference rise time is 1 ms to 9 ms. The lower rise time limit will ensure optimized modulator timing performance during start up, and to allow the current limit feature (through IFB pin) to fully protect the device during power-up. The upper rise time limit is needed to guarantee a sufficient factorized bus voltage is provided to any downstream VTM input before the end of the VC pulse. Setting the Output Current Limit and Overcurrent Protection Level (Remote Sense Operation) In Remote Sense Operation, the internal current sensing is disabled, and an external current sense amplifier must be implemented to provide feedback to the IFB pin. The current limit and overcurrent protection set points are linked, and scale together against the current sense shunt, and the gain of the current sense amplifier. The output of the current sense IC provides the IFB voltage which has V IFB_ILand VIFB_OCthresholds for the two functions respectively. The set points are therefore defined by: (6) and (7) where G CSis the gain of the current sense amplifier. 2 1 R R RV VREFOUT u CSS ILIFB IL G R VI u CSS OCIFB OC G R VI u PRM ENABLE TRIM SHARE/ CONTROL NODE AL IFB VC VT VAUX REF/ REF_EN +IN –IN +OUT –OUT SGND GND SGND ON/OFF CONTROL SGND CIN COUT VIN Voltage Sense and Error Amplifier (Single Ended) SGND V + VOUT –IN+IN V – SGND External Current Sense and Feedback VOUT RS Voltage Reference with Soft Start SGND IN OUT GND RSS CSS 10 k SGND VREF VREF REF 3312 Figure 37 — Remote Sense Example

Figure 24 shows the AC small signal model for the module. Modulator DC gain G CNand powertrain equivalent resistance rEQ_OUTare shown. These modeling parameters will support a design cut-off frequency up to 50kHz. Standard Bode analysis should be used for calculating the error amplifier compensation and analyzing the closed loop stability. The recommended stability criteria are as follows: 1) Phase Margin > 45º: for the closed loop response, the phase should be greater than 45º where the gain crosses 0 dB. 2) Gain Margin > 10dB : The closed loop gain should be lower than - 10dB where the phase crosses 0º. 3) Gain Slope = -20dB/decade : The closed loop gain should have a slope of -20dB/decade at the crossover frequency. The compensation characteristics must be selected to meet these stability criteria. Refer to Figure 37 for a local sense, voltage-mode control example based on the configuration in Figure 36. In this example, it is assumed that the maximum crossover frequency CMAX) has been selected to occur between B and C. Type-2 compensation (Curve IJKL) is sufficient in this case. The following data must be gathered in order to proceed: n Modulator Gain GCN: See Figures 18, 19, 20 n Powertrain equivalent resistance rEQ: See Figures 18, 19, 20 n Internal output capacitance: see Figure 13 n External output capacitance value In the case of ceramic capacitors, the ESR can be considered low enough to push the associated zero well above the frequency of interest. Applications with high ESR capacitor may require a different type of compensation, or cascade control. The system poles and zeros of the closed loop can then be defined as follows: n Powertrain pole, assuming the external capacitor ESR can be neglected: n Main pole frequency: n Compensation Mid-Band Gain: (8) n Compensation Zero: (9) n Compensation Pole: and for FP2>>FZ1(C1+ C2≈ C1): (10) 2 1 2 1 3 C C C C RP u uu 2 3 1F C R P u u5 / LOADOUTEQ LOADOUTEQ C R r R rR EXTOUT u EXTOUTINTOUT LOADOUTEQ LOADOUTEQ P CR r R r Cʌ2 u uu MB R Rlog20 G 1 3 1 Z C Rʌ2 1F u u Open Loop Gain vs. Frequency -40 -20 Frequency, Log scale (y-intercept is application specific) Gain (dB) PRM Open Loop Max Load A B E F I J K L Compensation Gain C G FCMAXFCMIN E FF PRM Open Loop Min Load Application’s op-amo GBW Figure 38— Reference asymptotic Bode plot for the considered system

In order for the maximum crossover frequency to occur at the design choice F CMAX, the compensation gain must be equal and opposite of the powertrain gain at this frequency. For stability purposes, the compensation should be in the Mid-band (J-K) at the crossover. Using Equation (8), the mid-band gain can be selected appropriately. Compensation Zero Design :C1 (Remote Sense Operation) With reference to Figure 37: curve EFG is the: n maximum output voltage in the application n minimum input voltage expected in the application n minimum load in the application PRM open loop response, and is where the minimum crossover frequency F CMINoccurs. Based on stability criteria, the compensation must be in the mid-band at the minimum crossover frequency, therefore F CMINwill occur where EFG is equal and opposite of GMB. C1 can be selected using Equation (9)so that FZ1occurs prior to FCMIN. High Frequency Pole Design: C2 (Remote Sense Operation): Using Equation (10), C2 should be selected so that F P2is at least one decade above FCMAXand prior to the gain bandwidth product of the operational amplifier (10MHz for this example). For applications with a higher desired crossover frequency the use of a high gain bandwidth product amplifier may be necessary to ensure that the real pole can be set at least one decade above the maximum crossover frequency.

All PRMs within the array are configured for Remote Sense Operation and are driven by an external control circuit which considers the control inputs and drives the CONTROL NODE bus. The following high-level guidelines must be followed in order for the resultant system to start up and operate properly, and to avoid overstress or exceeding any absolute maximum ratings. n All PRMs must be configured for Remote Sense Operation by tying TRIM pins to SGND. It is recommended to make this connection through a 0 Ω jumper for troubleshooting purposes. n All PRMs in the array must be powered from a common power source so that the input voltage to each PRM is the same. n An independent fuse for each PRM +IN connection is required to maintain safety certifications (see Fusing section). n An independent inductor for each PRM +IN connection is recommended when used in an array, to control circulating currents among the PRM inputs and reduce the impact of beat frequencies. n Mismatches in both inductance, and resistance from the common power source to each PRM should be minimized. n ENABLE pins must be connected together for start up synchronization and proper fault response of the array. n Reference supply to the control loop voltage reference and current sense circuitry must be enabled when all modules’ R EF_EN pins have reached their operational voltage levels. n A single external control circuit must be implemented as described in the Remote Sense Operation design guidelines. The control circuit should drive the CONTROL NODE bus. n CONTROL NODE pins must be connected together to enable sharing. The bandwidth requirements of CONTROL NODE are low enough that the bus can be considered a lumped element, rather than a transmission line, and so star connections as well as daisy chain connections are permitted. n Each PRM must have its own local current shunt and current sense circuitry to drive its IFB pin. n The resistances between CONTROL NODE pins should be well matched, to avoid introducing additional sharing mismatches. The CONTROL NODE bus should not be routed under any PRM. Parasitic capacitance to +IN or +OUT should be minimized. n One PRM should be designated to provide the SGND reference, VAUX, and REF_EN voltages for the external circuitry. n The SGND pins of each PRM should be connected to the SGND reference node on the board through a 1Ω resistor. n When operating within an array, the PRMs are de-rated to the array rated power and current values provided for Remote Sense Operation (P OUT_ARRAY, IOUT_ARRAY). The number of PRMs required to achieve a given array capacity must consider these de-ratings to avoid overstressing any PRM in the array. n When using VAUX to power external circuitry, total current draw including CONTROL NODE sink currents must be taken into account to ensure the maximum VAUX current is not exceeded. Arrays of more than 5 PRMs may require additional circuitry to provide the required source current. Contact Vicor Applications Engineering for more information.

It is therefore very important to verify that the voltage supply source as well as the interconnecting lines are stable and do not oscillate. For this purpose, the converter dynamic input impedance magnitude is provided in Figures 21, 22, 23. It is recommended to provide adequate design margin with respect to the stability conditions illustrated in the previous sections. Inductive source and local, external input decoupling capacitance with negligible ESR (i.e.: ceramic type) The voltage source impedance can be modeled as a series R LINELLINE circuit. The high performance ceramic decoupling capacitors will not significantly damp the network because of their low ESR; therefore in order to guarantee stability the following conditions must be verified: (13) (14) It is critical that the line source impedance be at least an octave lower than the converter’s dynamic input resistance, 14. However, R LINEcannot be made arbitrarily low otherwise equation 13is violated and the system will show instability, due to under-damped RLC input network. Inductive source and local, external input decoupling capacitance with significant R CIN_EXT ESR (i.e.: electrolytic type) In order to simplify the analysis in this case, the voltage source impedance can be modeled as a simple inductor L line. Notice that the high performance ceramic capacitors CIN_INTwithin the PRM, should be included in the external electrolytic capacitance value for this purpose. The stability criteria will be: (15) (16) Equation 16shows that if the aggregate ESR is too small – for example by using very high quality input capacitors (C IN_EXT) – the system will be under-damped and may even become destabilized. Again, an octave of design margin in satisfying 15should be considered the minimum. Layout Considerations Application Note AN:005 details board layout recommendations using VI Chip® components, with details on good power connections, reducing EMI, and shielding of control signals and techniques to reference them to SGND. Avoid routing control signals (ENABLE, TRIM, AL etc.) directly underneath the PRM. It is critical that all control signals (aside from VC and VT) are referenced to SGND, both for routing and for pull- down and bypassing purposes. VC and VT provide control and feedback from a VTM, and must be referenced to –OUT of the PRM (-IN of the VTM). SGND is connected to –IN internally to the PRM. SGND should not be tied to any other ground in the system. Input Fuse Recommendations A fuse should be incorporated at the input to each PRM, in series with the +IN pin. A 10A or smaller input fuse (Littelfuse® NANO2® 451/453Series) is required to safety agency conditions of acceptability. Always ascertain and observe the safety, regulatory, or other agency specifications that apply to your specific application. Thermal Considerations VIChip products are multi-chip modules whose temperature distribution varies greatly for each part number as well as with the input / output conditions, thermal management and environmental conditions. Maintaining the top of the MPRM48NH480M250A00case to less than 100ºC will keep all junctions within the VI Chip module below 125ºC for most applications. The percent of total heat dissipated through the top surface versus through the J-lead is entirely dependent on the particular mechanical and thermal environment. The heat dissipated through the top surface is typically 60%. The heat dissipated through the J-lead onto the PCB board surface is typically 40%. Use 100% top surface dissipation when designing for a conservative cooling solution. It is not recommended to use a VI Chip module for an extended period of time at full load without proper heat sinking.
