High Efficiency, Sine Amplitude Converter™ FEATURES
• Optimized for VR12.0 • 40 Vdc to 1 Vdc 130 A current multiplier - Operating from standard 48 V or 24 V PRM® regulators
• High efficiency (>93.7%) reduces system power consumption
• High density (443 A/in3) • “Full Chip” VI Chip® package enables surface mount, low impedance interconnect to system board
• Contains built-in protection features against: - Overvoltage - Overtemperature
• Provides enable / disable control, internal temperature monitoring
• ZVS / ZCS resonant Sine Amplitude Converter topology • Less than 50ºC temperature rise at full load in typical applications
DESCRIPTION The VI Chip® current multiplier is a high efficiency (>93.7%) Sine Amplitude Converter™ (SAC) operating from a 26 to 55 Vdc primary bus to deliver an isolated output. The Sine Amplitude Converter offers a low AC impedance beyond the bandwidth of most downstream regulators; therefore capacitance normally at the load can be located at the input to the Sine Amplitude Converter. Since the K factor of the VTM48EF012T130B01 is 1/40, the capacitance value can be reduced by a factor of 1600, resulting in savings of board area, materials and total system cost. The VTM48EF012T130B01 is provided in a VI Chip® package compatible with standard pick-and-place and surface mount assembly processes. The co-molded VI Chip package provides enhanced thermal management due to a large thermal interface area and superior thermal conductivity. The high conversion efficiency of the VTM48EF012T130B01 increases overall system efficiency and lowers operating costs compared to conventional approaches. The VTM48EF012T130B01 enables the utilization of Factorized Power Architecture™ which provides efficiency and size benefits by lowering conversion and distribution losses and promoting high density point of load conversion.

15.0 FUSE SELECTION In order to provide flexibility in configuring power systems VI Chip® products are not internally fused. Input line fusing of VI Chip products is recommended at system level to provide thermal protection in case of catastrophic failure. The fuse shall be selected by closely matching system requirements with the following characteristics: • Current rating (usually greater than maximum current of VTM module) • Maximum voltage rating (usually greater than the maximum possible input voltage) • Ambient temperature • Nominal melting I2t

VTM48EF012T130B01 17.0 LAYOUT CONSIDERATIONS The VTM48EF012T130B01 requires equal current density along the output J-leads to achieve rated efficiency and output power level. The negative output J-leads are not connected internally and must be connected on the board as close to the VTM® current multiplier as possible. The layout must also prevent the high output current of the VTM48EF012T130B01 from interfering with the input-referenced signals. To achieve these requirements, the following layout guidelines are recommended: • The total current path length from any point on the V+OUT J-leads to the corresponding point on the V-OUT J-leads should be equal (see Figure 22) .
Figure 22 — Equal current path
• Use vias along the negative output J-leads to connect the negative output to a common power plane. • Use sufficient copper weight and number of layers to carry the output current to the load or to the output connectors. • Be sure to include enough vias along both the positive and negative J leads to distribute the current among the layers of the PCB. • Do not run input-referenced signal traces (VC, PC, TM and IM) between the layers of the secondary outputs. • Run the input-referenced signal traces (VC, PC, TM and IM) such that V-IN shields the signals. See AN:005 FPA Printed Circuit Board Layout Guidelines for more details.
Figure 23 — Symmetric layout
Equalizing the current paths is most easily accomplished by centering the VTM module output J-leads between the output connections of the PCB and by designing the board such that the layout is symmetric from both sides of the output and from the front and back ends of the output as shown in Figures 23 and 24.
