Return Current Paths
These are non-isolated DC/DC converters. The Input Return, Output Return
and Logic Ground pins are all connected together internally. To the extent
possible, all input and load currents should be returned through the Input
Return and Output Return, respectively (via low-impedance runs). Any con-
trol signals applied to the On/Off Control pin should be referenced to Logic
Ground. The internal trace leading to Logic Ground is not designed to carry
high current. Consequently, devices should never be installed in a manner
that results in high current fl ow through Logic Ground (i.e., the Input/Output
Return pins should never be left open or connected via high-impedance paths).
I/O Filtering and Noise Reduction
All UNR 18-33W Series converters are tested and specifi ed with external
470µF input capacitors (20mΩ ESR, 6Arms ripple-current rating) and
external 22µF output capacitors (200mΩ ESR). External input capacitance is
required and must be rated to handle the input ripple current as follows:
In critical applications, input/output ripple/noise may be further reduced by
installing additional I/O caps.
Performance/Functional Specifi cations
Typical @ TA = +25°C under nominal line voltage and full-load conditions unless noted.
➀
➀ All models are tested and specifi ed with an external 470µF input capacitor with a 20mΩ
ESR and a 6Arms ripple-current rating, as well as a 22µF output capacitor with a 200mΩ ESR.
See I/O Filtering and Noise Reduction for more details. These devices have no minimum-load
requirements and will regulate under no-load conditions. Listed specifi cations apply for both
"T" and "SM" models as appropriate.
➁ See Output Overcurrent Detection for details.
➂ See On/Off Control for details.
➃ See Output Voltage Trimming for details.
➄ For all models, output noise can be further reduced with the installation of additional
external output capacitors. See I/O Filtering and Noise Reduction for details.
➅ See Start-Up Time for details.
