The 1518 watts PKC series DC/DC power modules
are especially designed for decen-tralized 24 and
28 Vdc systems with distributed on-board DC/DC
converters. Their low profile allows very narrow board
pitches and slim designs. By using thickfilm tech-
nology, which provides a high degree of integration
as well as efficient thermal management, and by
utilizing a 300 kHz switching frequency based on
proprietary drive & control circuits, these highly
reliable products can be used in demanding
applications within e.g. cellular radio, medical,
industrial and aircraft industry.
By using magnetic integration of the output voltages
in the feedback loop, all outputs are kept within a
3% total tolerance band. Input to output isolation is
500 Vdc and mechanical ruggedness specified in
conformance with IEC 68-2 is close to requirements
for discrete components. Extreme temperature
conditions can be met since the PKC power modules
can operate with full output power in ambient
temperatures from 45 to +85C, or up to +115C
case temperature also making the products ideal for
applications within not temperature controlled
environments.
The PKC series are manufactured using highly
automated manufacturing lines with a world-class
quality commitment and a five-year warranty.
Ericsson Microelectronics AB has been an ISO 9001
certified supplier since 1991. For a complete product

Safety
The PKC 2000 I DC/DC power modules
are designed in accordance with EN
60 950. Safety of information technology
equipment including electrical business equip-
ment. and certified by SEMKO.
The isolation is an operational insulation
in accordance with EN 60950. The PKC
power modules are recognized by UL and
meet the applicable requirements in UL
1950 Safety of information technology equip-
ment, the applicable canadian safety require-
ments and UL 1012 standard for power
supplies. The DC/DC power module shall
be installed in an end-use equipment.
The isolation voltage between input and
output and between case and input/output
is 500 Vdc and the capacitor between the
input and output has a value of 10 nF.
The leakage current is less than 1uA @
26 V dc.
The case is partly designed in non-coduc-
tive plastic. Flammability ratings meets
UL 94V-0.
Stress in excess of Absolute Maximum
Ratings may cause permanent damage. Absolute
Maximum Ratings, sometimes referred to as no
destruction limits, are normally tested with one
parameter at a time exceeding the limits of
Output data or Electrical Characteristics. If
exposed to stress above these limits, function and
performance may degrade in an unspecified
manner.

Two-parameter model
Power dissipation is generated in the components mounted on the
ceramic substrate. The thermal properties of the PKC power
module is determined by thermal conduction in the connected
pins and thermal convection from the substrate via the case.
The two-parameter model characterize the thermal properties of
the PKC power module and the equation below can be used for
thermal design purposes if detailed information is needed. The
values are given for a module mounted on a printed board assem-
bly (PBA).
Note that the thermal resistance between the substrate and the
air, R

is strongly dependent on the air velocity.
