They can be used as design-free POL converters for a 12 V system intermediate bus. They can be configured easily, reducing overall design time, and allowing reuse of designs. Miniaturization was achieved by high frequency switching technology, allowing saving space on the application PCB. Soldering capability has been significantly improved by adoption of end face through holes.

Functional Description Power Good ( PG) Operation When output voltage,, is within the Power Good detection range, the PG pin is disconnected internally by the MOSFET switch. The signal at the Power Good node is pulled up to 5 V. If falls out of the Power Good detection range, the MOSFET switch connects PG to, and the signal at the Power Good node is pulled low. The PG peripheral circuit is shown in figure 3. Output Sensing ( VS+) and Compensation Reduction in output voltage can be compensated by connecting the output sense terminal, VS+, to the load. When using LC filter, the proper connection is shown in panel A of figure 2. Note: Do not connect the output sense terminal to the output of the LC filter. It may not operate normally. CAUTION: When the output sense terminal is not used, it must be connected directly to the VOUT output terminal. This is shown in panel B of figure 4. External On/Off Output Control (ON/Ō F F ) Operation of the output of the product can be turned on and off by using the On/Off function, irrespective of input voltage connection. Power Good Figure 3.

CAUTION: The ON/Ō F F pin is pulled up to V IN via a resistor and is connected to via a resistor inside the BR22/23 converters. The ON/Ō F F pin voltage is set to around 4% of V IN. Do not feed voltage higher than 7 V to the pin from outside the BR22/BR23 converters.

There are lands of the module, pattern, and through holes. Please give consideration to providing sufficient creepage distance when designing the pattern (the traces of different potentials are placed for a creepage distance of.25 mm from the land boundaries indicated by the dotted lines). The shaded areas indicate dimensions of lands (copper foil dimensions) on the PCB. (1.48 mm x 2.8 mm are the dimensions of a land / footprint.) Dimensions of a footprint do not include tolerance. Dimensions include only an assumed mounting variance of.15 mm for both vertical and horizontal directions. In actual use of a module, please consider actual mounting variances and adjust footprint dimensions. A dotted line indicates a pad of a module. The area which exceeds the footprint dimensions of 1.48 mm x 2.8 mm is the extended pad. When a user requires improvement in power dissipation and to maximize soldered area, it is recommended to cover the whole shaded area. But if a user does not require the improvement, please use the module with minimum pad area, 1.48 mm x 2.8 mm.

OPERATING PRECAUTIONS Because reliability can be affected adversely by improper storage environments and handling methods, please observe the following cautions. Cautions for Storage Ensure that storage conditions comply with the standard temperature (5 C to 35 C) and the standard relative humidity (around 4% to 75%); avoid storage locations that experience extreme changes in temperature or humidity. Avoid locations where dust or harmful gases are present and avoid direct sunlight. Reinspect for rust on leads and solderability of products that have been stored for a long time. Cautions for Testing and Handling When tests are carried out during inspection testing and other standard test periods, protect the products from power surges from the testing products, shorts between the product pins, and wrong connections. In addition, avoid tests exceeded ratings. Electrostatic Discharge When handling the products, the operator must be grounded. To prevent shock hazard, grounded wrist straps should be used and at least 1 MΩ of resistance from the operator to ground should be placed near the operator. Workbenches where the products are handled should be grounded and be provided with conductive table and floor mats. When using measuring equipment such as a curve tracer, the equipment should be grounded. When soldering the products, the head of a soldering irons or the solder bath must be grounded in order to prevent leak voltages generated by them from being applied to the products. The products should always be stored and transported in Sanken shipping containers or conductive containers, or be wrapped in aluminum foil. Cautions for Use Do not use the power modules under overload conditions as that will damage the module and cause a malfunction or failures. Use the products within the specified input voltage range. 11

The contents in this document are subject to changes, for improvement and other purposes, without notice. Make sure that this is the latest revision of the document before use. Application and operation examples described in this document are quoted for the sole purpose of reference for the use of the products herein and Sanken can assume no responsibility for any infringement of industrial property rights, intellectual property rights or any other rights of Sanken or any third party which may result from its use. Although Sanken undertakes to enhance the quality and reliability of its products, the occurrence of failure and defect of semiconductor products at a certain rate is inevitable. Users of Sanken products are requested to take, at their own risk, preventative measures including safety design of the equipment or systems against any possible injury, death, fires or damages to the society due to device failure or malfunction. Sanken products listed in this document are designed and intended for the use as components in general purpose electronic equipment or apparatus (home appliances, office equipment, telecommunication equipment, measuring equipment, etc.). When considering the use of Sanken products in the applications where higher reliability is required (transportation equipment and its control systems, traffic signal control systems or equipment, fire/crime alarm systems, various safety devices, etc.), and whenever long life expectancy is required even in general purpose electronic equipment or apparatus, please contact your nearest Sanken sales representative to discuss, prior to the use of the products herein. The use of Sanken products without the written consent of Sanken in the applications where extremely high reliability is required (aerospace equipment, nuclear power control systems, life support systems, etc.) is strictly prohibited. In the case that you use Sanken products or design your products by using Sanken products, the reliability largely depends on the degree of derating to be made to the rated values. Derating may be interpreted as a case that an operation range is set by derating the load from each rated value or surge voltage or noise is considered for derating in order to assure or improve the reliability. In general, derating factors include electric stresses such as electric voltage, electric current, electric power etc., environmental stresses such as ambient temperature, humidity etc. and thermal stress caused due to self-heating of semiconductor products. For these stresses, instantaneous values, maximum values and minimum values must be taken into consideration. In addition, it should be noted that since power devices or IC's including power devices have large self-heating value, the degree of derating of junction temperature affects the reliability significantly. When using the products specified herein by either (i) combining other products or materials therewith or (ii) physically, chemically or otherwise processing or treating the products, please duly consider all possible risks that may result from all such uses in advance and proceed therewith at your own responsibility. Anti radioactive ray design is not considered for the products listed herein. Sanken assumes no responsibility for any troubles, such as dropping products caused during transportation out of Sanken's distribution network. The contents in this document must not be transcribed or copied without Sanken's written consent. 12
