LSM-16A W3 Models
Non-Isolated, Wide Input SMT DC/DC Converters
The internal 10.57resistor between +Sense and +Output (see Figure 1)
serves to protect the sense function by limiting the output current flowing
through the sense line if the main output is disconnected. It also prevents
output voltage runaway if the sense connection is disconnected.
Note: If the sense function is not used for remote regulation, +Sense
(pin 6) must be tied to +Output (pin 4) at the DC/DC converter pins.
On/Off Control
The On/Off Control pin may be used for remote on/off operation. LSM W3
Series DC/DC converters are designed so that they are enabled when the con-
trol pin is left open (open collector) and disabled when the control pin is pulled
low (to less than +0.4V relative to Common). As shown in Figure 4, all models
have an internal pull-up current source to VIN (+Input).
Dynamic control of the on/off function is best accomplished with a mechanical
relay or open-collector/open-drain drive circuit (optically isolated if appropri-
ate). The drive circuit should be able to sink appropriate current when activated
and withstand appropriate voltage when deactivated.

Output Overcurrent Detection
Overloading the power converter’s output for an extended time will invariably
cause internal component temperatures to exceed their maximum ratings and
eventually lead to component failure. High-current-carrying components such
as inductors, FET’s and diodes are at the highest risk. LSM W3 SMT Series
DC/DC converters incorporate an output overcurrent detection and shutdown
function that serves to protect both the power converter and its load.

If the output current exceeds it maximum rating by typically 50% (24 Amps) or
if the output voltage drops to less than 98% of it original value, the LSM W3’s
internal overcurrent-detection circuitry immediately turns off the converter,
which then goes into a “hiccup” mode. While hiccupping, the converter will
continuously attempt to restart itself, go into overcurrent, and then shut down.
Under these conditions, the average output current will be approximately
400mA, and the average input current will be approximately 40mA. Once the
output short is removed, the converter will automatically restart itself.
Figure 4. On/Off Control Using An External Open Collector Driver
Applying an external voltage to the On/Off Control pin when no input power is
applied to the converter can cause permanent damage to the converter. The
on/off control function, however, is designed such that the converter can be
disabled (control pin pulled low) while input voltage is ramping up and then
“released” once the input has stabilized (see also power-up sequencing).
Power-up Sequencing
If a controlled start-up of one or more LSM W3 Series DC/DC converters
is required, or if several output voltages need to be powered-up in a given
sequence, the On/Off control pin can be driven with an external open collector
device as per Figure 4.
Leaving the input of the on/off circuit closed during power-up will have the
output of the DC/DC converter disabled. When the input to the external open
collector is pulled high, the DC/DC converter’s output will be enabled.
Output Overvoltage Protection
LSM W3 SMT Series DC/DC converters do not incorporate output overvoltage
protection. In the extremely rare situation in which the device’s feedback loop
is broken, the output voltage may run to excessively high levels (VOUT = VIN). If it
is absolutely imperative that you protect your load against any and all possible
overvoltage situations, voltage limiting circuitry must be provided external to
the power converter.
Output Voltage Trimming
Allowable trim ranges for each model in the LSM W3 SMT Series are ±10%.
Trimming is accomplished with either a trimpot or a single fixed resistor. The
trimpot should be connected between +Output and Common with its wiper
connected to the Trim pin as shown in Figure 6 below.
A trimpot can be used to determine the value of a single fixed resistor which
can then be connected, as shown in Figure 7, between the Trim pin and
+Output to trim down the output voltage, or between the Trim pin and Common
to trim up the output voltage. Fixed resistors should have absolute TCR’s less
than 100ppm/oC to ensure stability.
The equations below can be starting points for selecting specific trim-resistor
values. Recall, untrimmed devices are guaranteed to be ±1% accurate.
Adjustment beyond the specified ±10% adjustment range is not recommended.
When using trim in combination with Remote Sense, the maximum rated power
must not be exceeded (see Remote Sense).
