Operating Information: 
 
Over-Current-Protection (OCP): The power 
modules have current limit protection to 
protect the module during output overload and 
short circuit conditions. During overload 
conditions, the power modules may protect 
themselves by entering a hiccup current limit 
mode. The modules will operate normally once 
the output current returns to the specified 
operating range. A latched over-current 
protection option is also available. Consult the 
TDK Innoveta technical support for details. 
 
Output Over-Voltage-Protection (OVP): The 
power modules have a control circuit, 
independent of the main control loop, that 
reduces the risk of over voltage appearing at 
the output of the power module during a fault 
condition. If there is a fault in the voltage 
regulation loop, the over voltage protection 
circuitry will cause the power module to shut 
down. The module will try to auto re-start in 1 
+/- 0.2 sec time period. An optional feature 
with latched OVP protection can also be 
offered. Consult the TDK Innoveta technical 
support for details. 
 
Thermal 
Protection: When the power
modules exceed the maximum operating 
temperature, the modules may turn-off to 
safeguard the power unit against thermal 
damage. The module will auto restart as the 
unit is cooled below the over temperature 
threshold. 
A

over-temperature
protection option is also available. Consult the 
TDK Innoveta technical support for details. 
 
Remote On/Off: - The power modules have 
an internal remote on/off circuit. The user must 
supply an open-collector or compatible switch 
between the Vin(-) pin and the on/off 
pin. The maximum voltage generated by the 
power module at the on/off terminal is 15V. 
The maximum allowable leakage current of 
the switch is 50uA. The switch must be 
capable of maintaining a low signal Von/off < 
0.8V while sinking 400uA. 
 
 
 
 
 
 
The standard on/off logic is positive logic. The 
power module will turn on if terminal 2 is left 
open and will be off if terminal 2 is connected 
to terminal 4. An optional negative logic is 
available. The power module will turn on if 
terminal 2 is connected to terminal 4, and it 
will be off if terminal 2 is left open.

Output Voltage Adjustment: The output 
voltage of the power module may be adjusted 
by using an external resistor connected 
between the Vout trim terminal (pin 7) and 
either the Sense (+) or Sense (-) terminal. If 
the output voltage adjustment feature is not 
used, pin 7 should be left open. Care should 
be taken to avoid injecting noise into the 
power module’s trim pin. A small 0.01uF 
capacitor between the power module’s trim pin 
and Sense (-) pin may help to avoid this.
