HIGH RELIABILITY
HYBRID DC/DC CONVERTER
AFL27003R3S
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 +28 or +270 volt inputs with
output power ranging from 80 to 120 watts. For
applications requiring higher output power, multiple
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. Undervoltage
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 hermeticity in the most harsh environments.
Manufactured in a facility fully qualified to MIL-PRF-
38534, these converters are available in four screening
grades to satisfy a wide range of requirements. The CH
grade is fully compliant to the requirements of MIL-PRF-
38534 for class H. The HB grade is fully processed and
screened to the class H requirement, but does not have
material element evaluated to the class H requirement.
Both grades are tested to meet the complete group "A"
test specification over the full military temperature range
without output power deration. Two grades with more
limited screening are also available for use in less

mechanical and screening can be accommodated.

illustrates a typical application.
Circuit Operation and Application Information
The AFL series of converters employ a forward switched
mode converter topology. (refer to Figure 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. Two power MOSFETs used to chop the
DC input voltage into a high frequency square wave, apply
this chopped voltage to the power transformer. As this
switching is initiated, a voltage is impressed on a second
winding of the power transformer which is then rectified and
applied to the primary bias supply. When this occurs, the
input voltage is shut out and the primary bias voltage
becomes exclusively internally generated.
The switched voltage impressed on the secondary output
transformer winding is rectified and filtered to provide the
converter 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 MOSFETs, narrowing the width if the output
voltage is too high and widening it if it is too low.
Remote Sensing
Inhibiting Converter Output
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.

evel of +2.0 volts. The sync output of another converter
which has been designated as the master oscillator provides
a convenient frequency source for this mode of operation.
When external synchronization is not required, the sync in
pin should be left unconnected thereby permitting the
converter to operate at its' own internally set frequency.
The sync output signal is a continuous pulse train set at
550
50 KHz, with a duty cycle of 15 5%. This signal is
referenced to the input return and has been tailored to be
compatible with the AFL sync input port. Transition times
are less than 100 ns and the low level output impedance is
less than 50 ohms. This signal is active when the DC input
voltage is within the specified operating range and the
converter is not inhibited. This output has adequate drive
reserve to synchronize at least five additional converters.
A typical synchronization connection option is illustrated in
Figure III.

to Load
AFL series operating in the parallel mode is that in
addition
to sharing the current, the stress induced by temperature
will also be shared. Thus if one member of a paralleled set
is operating at a higher case temperture, the current it pro-
vides to the load will be reduced as compensation for the
temperature induced stress on that device.
When operating multiple converters, system requirements
often dictate operation of the converters at a common
frequency. To accommodate this requirement, the AFL
series converters provide both a synchronization input and
output.
The sync input port permits synchronization of an AFL
converter to any compatible external frequency source
operating between 500 and 700 KHz. This input signal
should be referenced to the input return and have a 10% to
90% duty cycle. Compatibility requires transition times less
th an100 ns, maximum low level of +0.8 volts and a minimum
Figure III. illustrates the preferred connection scheme for
operation of a set of AFL converters with outputs operating
in parallel. Use of this connection permits equal sharing of
a load current exceeding the capacity of an individual AFL
among the members of the set. An important feature of the
Internally, these ports differ slightly in their function. In use,
a low on Enable 1 completely shuts down all circuits in the
converter while a low on Enable 2 shuts down the secondary
side while altering the controller duty cycle to near zero.
Externally, the use of either port is transparent to the user
save for minor differences in idle current. (See specification
table).
