DESCRIPTION
Interpoint’s MFC Series™ of converters offers one, two, or three
individual converters combined with an EMI filter which is designed
to meet the requirements of MIL-STD-461C CE03. Many combina-
tions are available with choices from six different output voltages
and four different power levels resulting in one package with from
one to eight output voltages.
The MFC Series of converters uses Interpoint proprietary modules
as building blocks for creating single package optimized solutions
with proven reliability and short lead times.
All converters have an inhibit function which disables the outputs
and places the unit in a low quiescent current mode. Remote sense
and margining up are available on the 30 watt single modules. The
15 watt and 30 watt choices have synchronization.

2. Case has twelve pins which may limit the number of output voltages available.
Selecting a configuration:
Begin with the base model letters - MFC. Add a
configuration letter from “Table 2: Configurations”
that matches the number of outputs and power level
you require. Using “Table 1: Modules” from page 1,
choose from the available voltages in the power
levels determined by the configuration letter. Add the
chosen voltages to the model and configuration
letters beginning with the highest wattage down to
the lowest.
As an example: To configure a four output, 20 watt
converter, begin with MFCB. Choose the output volt-
ages for the 15 watt and 5 watt modules in Table 2.
For this example a 15 watt 5 volt dual output and a
5 watt 15 volt dual output were selected. The
resulting configuration is MFCB/05D/15D.
More Examples:
MFCA/15D/12D
30 watt total, four outputs:
15 watt dual 15 volt, 15 watt dual 12 volt
MFCD/5D/12D/5S
11 watt total, five outputs:
5 watt dual 5 volt, 5 watt dual 12 volt, 1.5 watt
single 5 volt
MFCG/5D/12D
6 watt total, four outputs:
5 watt dual 5 volt, 1.5 watt dual 12 volt
Note: The specifications on the following pages are for the individual modules. The specifications/perform-
ance of the configured converter may vary from the specifications in the “Electrical Characteristics” tables.
