Placing reliability and cost considerations above all others, DATELs new A-Series DC/DC
Converters combine straightforward circuit topologies, the newest components, proven SMT-on-pcb
construction, and highly repeatable automatic assembly techniques. Considering the critical low-cost
and long-term-reliability requirements of today’s telecom, datacom and computer/networking appli-
cations, the A-Series may well be the most cost-effective DC/DC’s available today.
The single-output, 6-10 Watt Models of the A-Series deliver both high power densities and
impressive MTBF’s. Their superior durability is substantiated by a rigorous in-house qualifi cation
program including HALT (Highly Accelerated Life Testing). The goal of HALT is not to simulate fi eld
conditions but to expose devices to multiple excessive stresses with the intention of precipitating any
potential electrical, mechanical or process weaknesses.
Packaged in 2" x 1" x 0.375" shielded metal cases with non-conductive coatings, these fully
isolated (1500Vdc guaranteed) DC/DC’s offer excellent line/load regulation, full I/O protection, and
industry-standard pinouts.
Output voltages include 5, 5.2, 12 and 15 Volts. Input voltage ranges are either 4.7-7.25V ("D5A"
models), 9-18V ("D12A" models) or 18-75V ("D48A" models). All A-Series UWR models are fully EMI
characterized and agency safety approved.
A-Series DC/DC’s are extremely reliable, easy-to-use, cost-effective power converters. Use
them to improve the reliability of existing equipment or to develop new systems that exceed design
objectives.

Floating Outputs
Since these are isolated DC/DC converters, their outputs are "fl oating."
Designers will usually use the output Common (pin 5) as the ground/return
of the load circuit. You can, however, use the +Output (pin 3) as ground/
return to effectively reverse the output polarity.
Filtering and Noise Reduction
All A-Series UWR 6-10 Watt DC/DC Converters achieve their rated ripple
and noise specifi cations without the use of external input/output capaci-
tors. In critical applications, input/output ripple and noise may be further
reduced by installing electrolytic capacitors across the input terminals and/
or low-ESR tantalum or electrolytic capacitors across the output terminals.
The caps should be located as close to the power converters as possible.
Typical values are listed in the tables below. In many applications, using
values greater than those listed will yield better results.
To Reduce Input Ripple
D5A Models 47µF, 10V
D12A and D24E Models 20µF, 50V
D48A and D48E Models 10µF, 100V
To Reduce Output Ripple
5/5.2V Outputs 47µF, 10V, Low ESR
12/15V Outputs 22µF, 20V, Low ESR
In critical, space-sensitive applications, DATEL may be able to tailor the
internal input/output fi ltering of these units to meet your specifi c require-
ments.

If you’re designing with EMC in mind, please note that all of DATEL’s
A-Series UWR 6-10 Watt DC/DC Converters have been characterized for
radiated and conducted emissions in our new EMI/EMC laboratory. Testing
is conducted in an EMCO 5305 GTEM test cell utilizing EMCO automated
EMC test software. Radiated emissions are tested to the limits of FCC Part
15, Class B and CISPR 22 (EN 55022), Class B. Radiated emissions plots to

Quality and Reliability
The A-Series are the fi rst DC/DC Converters to emerge from DATELs new,
company-wide approach to designing and manufacturing the most reliable
power converters available. The fi ve-pronged program draws our Quality
Assurance function into all aspects of new-product design, development,
characterization, qualifi cation and manufacturing.
Design for Reliability
Design for Reliability is woven throughout our multi-phased, new-product-
development process. Design-for-reliability practices are fully documented
and begin early in the new-product development cycle with the following
goals:
1. To work from an approved components/vendors list ensuring the use of
reliable components and the rigorous qualifi cation of new components.
2. To design with safety margins by adhering to a strict set of derating
guidelines and performing theoretical worst-case analyses.
3. To locate potential design weaknesses early in the product-development
cycle by using extensive HALT (Highly Accelerated Life Testing).
4. To prove that early design improvements are effective by employing a
thorough FRACA (Failure Reporting Analysis and Corrective Action) System.
Soldering Guidelines
Murata Power Solutions recommends the specifi cations below when installing these
converters. These specifi cations vary depending on the solder type. Exceeding these
specifi cations may cause damage to the product. Be cautious when there is high atmo-
spheric humidity. We strongly recommend a mild pre-bake (100° C. for 30 minutes). Your
production environment may differ; therefore please thoroughly review these guidelines
with your process engineers.
Wave Solder Operations for through-hole mounted prod-
ucts (THMT)
For Sn/Ag/Cu based solders:
Maximum Preheat Temperature 115° C.
Maximum Pot Temperature 270° C.

HALT Testing
The goal of the accelerated-stress techniques used by DATEL is to force
device maturity, in a short period of time, by exposing devices to excessive
levels of "every stimulus of potential value." We use HALT (Highly Acceler-
ated Life Testing) repeatedly during the design and early manufacturing
phases to detect potential electrical and mechanical design weaknesses
that could result in possible future fi eld failures.
During HALT, prototype and pre-production DC/DC converters are sub-
jected to progressively higher stress levels induced by thermal cycling,
rate of temperature change, vibration, power cycling, product-specifi c
stresses (such as dc voltage variation) and combined environments. The
stresses are not meant to simulate fi eld environments but to expose any
weaknesses in a product’s electro/mechanical design and/or assembly
processes. The goal of HALT is to make products fail so that device weak-
nesses can be analyzed and strengthened as appropriate. Applied stresses
are continually stepped up until products eventually fail. After corrective
actions and/or design changes, stresses are stepped up again and the cycle
is repeated until the "fundamental limit of the technology" is determined.
DATEL has invested in a Qualmark OVS-1 HALT tester capable of applying
voltage and temperature extremes as well as 6-axis, linear and rotational,
random vibration. A typical HALT profi le (shown above) consists of thermal
cycling (–55 to +125°C, 30°C/minute) and simultaneous, gradually increas-
ing, random longitudinal and rotational vibration up to 20G’s with load
cycling and applied-voltage extremes added as desired. Many devices in
DATELs new A-Series could not be made to fail prior to reaching either the
limits of the HALT chamber or some previously known physical limit of the
device.
We also use the HALT chamber and its ability to rapidly cool devices to
verify their "cold-start" capabilities.
Qualifi cation
For each new product, electrical performance is verifi ed via a comprehen-
sive characterization process and long-term reliability is confi rmed via a
rigorous qualifi cation procedure. The qual procedure includes such strenu-
ous tests as thermal shock and 500 hour life. Qual testing is summarized
below.
In-Line Process Controls and Screening
A combination of statistical sampling and 100% inspection techniques
keeps our assembly line under constant control. Parameters such as
solder-paste thickness, component placement, cleanliness, etc. are statisti-
cally sampled, charted and fi ne tuned as necessary. Visual inspections are
performed by trained operators after pick-and-place, soldering and cleaning
operations. Units are 100% electrically tested prior to potting. All devices
are temperature cycled, burned-in, hi-pot tested and fi nal-electrical tested
prior to external visual examination, packing and shipping.
Rapid Response to Problems
DATEL employs an outstanding corrective-action system to immediately
address any detected shortcomings in either products or processes. When-
ever our assembly, quality or engineering personnel spot a product/process
problem, or if a product is returned with a potential defect, we immediately
perform a detailed failure analysis and, if necessary, undertake corrective
actions. Over time, this system has helped refi ne our assembly operation to
yield one of the lowest product defect rates in the industry.
