Summary
The M series of AC-DC (DC-DC) converters represents a
broad and flexible range of power supplies for use in ad-
vanced industrial electronic systems. Features include high
efficiency, reliability, low output voltage noise and excellent
dynamic response to load/line changes due to individual
regulation of each output.
The converter inputs are protected against surges and tran-
sients occuring at the Input. An input over- and under-
voltage lock-out circuitry disables the outputs if the input
voltage is outside the specified range. These types include
an inrush current limitation preventing circuit breakers and
fuses from being damaged at switch-on.
All outputs are open- and short-circuit proof and are pro-
tected against overvoltages by means of built-in suppressor
diodes. The outputs can be inhibited by a logic signal ap-
plied to the connector pin 2 (i). If the inhibit function is not
used pin 2 should be connected to pin 23 to enable the out-
puts.
LED indicators display the status of the converter and allow
visual monitoring of the system at any time.
Full input to output, input to case, output to case and output
to output isolation is provided. The modules are designed
and built according to the international safety standard
IEC/EN 60950 and have been approved by the safety agen-
39
1.54"
8 TE
168
6.6"
cies LGA (Germany) and UL (USA). The UL Mark for
Canada has been officially recognized by regulatory au-
thorities in provinces across Canada.
The case design allows operation at nominal load up to
71°C in a free air ambient temperature. If forced cooling is
provided, the ambient temperature may exceed 71°C but
the case temperature should remain below 95°C under all
conditions.
A temperature sensor generates an inhibit signal which
disables the outputs if the case temperature
T
C
exceeds the
limit. The outputs are automatically re-enabled when the
temperature drops below the limit.
Various options are available to adapt the converters to in-
dividual applications.
The modules may either be plugged into 19" rack systems
according to DIN 41494, or be chassis mounted.

Functional Description
AC-DC Converters
M Series
The input voltage is fed via an input fuse, an input filter, a
rectifier and an inrush current limiter to the input capacitor.
This capacitor sources a single transistor forward converter.
Each output is powered by a separate secondary winding of
the main transformer. The resultant voltages are rectified
and their ripples smoothed by a power choke and an output
filter. The control logic senses the main output voltage
U
o1
and generates, with respect to the maximum admissible
output currents, the control signal for the primary switching
transistor. This signal is fed back via a coupling transformer.
The auxiliary outputs
U
o2
and
U
o3
are individually regulated
by means of secondary switching transistors. Each auxili-
ary output's current is sensed using a current transformer. If
one of the outputs is driven into current limit, the other out-
puts will reduce their output voltages as well because all
output currents are controlled by the same main control cir-
cuit.

Input fuse
A fuse holder containing a slow-blow type fuse (Dimension:
5
×
20 mm) is mounted in the converter's back plate. The
fuse protects the module against severe defects. It may not
fully protect the module at input voltages exceeding
200 V DC. In applications where the converters operate at
DC source voltages above 200 V DC, an external fuse or a
circuit breaker at system level should be installed.
For applications where the fuse should be inaccessible: see
Option F.
Input Under-/Overvoltage Lock-out
If the input voltage remains below 0.8
U
i min
or exceeds
1.1U
i max
(approx. values), an internally generated inhibit
signal disables the output(s). When checking this function
the absolute maximum input voltage rating
U
i abs
must be
carefully considered (see table:
Input Data).
Between
U
i min
and the undervoltage lock-out level the output voltage may
be below the value defined in table:
Output data
(see:
Tech-
nical Information: Measuring and Testing).

The modules incorporate an NTC resistor in the input cir-
cuitry which (during the initial switch-on cycle) limits the
peak inrush current to avoid damage to connectors and
switching devices. Subsequent switch-on cycles within a
short interval will cause an increase of the peak inrush cur-
rent due to the warming up of the NTC resistor. Refer also
