DESCRIPTION
The GS-R51212S and GS-R51515S are versatile
triple output, high current step-down switching
regulators that provide +5.1V/4.5A output voltage
and an isolated
±12V/0.35A
or
±15V/0.3A
dual
output voltage.
They are ideal for microprocessor based boards
because power the logic and the communication
ports and have Reset output and Power Fail pro-
grammable input for the correct system start-up.

The Inhibit/Enable pin allows the ON/OFF logic
function with TTL/CMOS compatible input signal.
The auxiliary outputs (±12V or
±15V)
are externally
adjustable in a very wide range, i.e. from
±4.25V
to
±12.45V
on GS-R51212S and from
±4.50V
to
±15.25V
(typical values) on GS-R51515S.

Description
Return for input voltage source. Internally connected to pin 7.
Inhibit/Enable control input. The converter is ON (ENABLE) when the voltage applied to
this pin is lower than 0.8V. The converter is OFF (INHIBIT) when this pin is unconnected or
the input voltage is in the range of 1.2 to Vi.
Power Fail programmable input. If unconnected the Power Fail threshold voltage is 11V
with 1V hysteresis (factory setting).
DC input voltage. Recommended maximum voltage is 40V.
Reset output (active high). When the supply voltage +Vin and the regulated output voltage
+Vo1 are in the correct range this signal is generated after a delay time of 100ms typical.
Regulated +5.1V output voltage.
Return for output 1 current path. Internally connected to pin 1.

USER NOTES
Input Voltage
The recommended operating maximum DC input
voltage is 40V inclusive of the ripple voltage. The
use of an external low ESR, high ripple current
capacitor located as close the module as possible
is recommended; suggested value is 100µF/50V.
Soft-start
To avoid heavy inrush current the output voltage
rise time is typically 10ms in any condition of load.
Power Fail-Reset Circuit
The module include a voltage sensing circuit that
may be used to generate a power-on/power-off
reset signal for a microprocessor system.
The circuit sense the input supply voltage and the
output generated voltage Vo1 (+5V) and will gener-
ate the required reset signal only when both the
sensed voltages have reached the required value
for correct system operation.
When both the supply voltage and the regulated
voltage are in the correct range the output Reset
signal is generated after a delay time t
DR
of 100ms
typical.
A latch assures that if a spike is present on the
sensed voltage the delay time circuit discharges
completely before initialization of a new reset cycle.
Reset output has internal pull-up resistor of
10kOhm connected to Vo +5V pin.
Maximum sink ou tput current is 20mA at
V
RESET (sat)
= 200mV.
Fig. 1 and fig. 2 show reset waveforms.
Power Fail Programmable Input
This pin is internally connected via a divider to the
+Vin pin for Power Fail function.
The factory setting is for a value of 11V with 1V
hysteresis.
It is possible to program a different value of Power
Fail threshold by connecting a resistor (Rpf) be-
tween pin 3 (Power Fail Input) and pin 1 (GND
Input). The value of Rpf must be calculated accord-
ing to the following formula:
