PRODUCT OVERVIEW
The MINMAX MKZI10 series is a new range of high performance 10W isolated dc-dc converter within encapsulated 2"x1" package which specifically design
for railway applications. There are 18 models available for railway input voltage of either 24(9~36)VDC or 48(18~75)VDC or 72/110(40~160)VDC and tight
output voltage regulation. Further features include over current, over voltage, short circuit protection, remote ON/OFF, output trim and EMI filter meets
EN55022 & FCC Part15 Class A as well. MKZI10 series conform to vibration and thermal shock test meets EN61373, cooling, dry and damp heat test
meets IEC/EN 60068-2-1,2,30 and railway EMC standard EN50121-3-2 and complies also with railway standard EN50155 (IEC60571). MKZI10 series offer
an highly reliable solution for critical applications in railway systems, battery-powered equipment, measure instrumentation and many critical applications.

Specifications typical at Ta=+25℃, resistive load, nominal input voltage and rated output current unless otherwise noted.
Transient recovery time is measured to within 1% error band for a step change in output load of 75% to 100%.
We recommend to protect the converter by a slow blow fuse in the input supply line.
Other input and output voltage may be available, please contact factory.
To meet EN61000-4-4 & EN61000-4-5 an, external capacitor across the input pins is required. Suggested capacitor: 220μF/400V.
That “natural convection” is about 20LFM but is not equal to still air (0 LFM).
Specifications are subject to change without notice.

MKZI10 SERIES
DC/DC CONVERTER 10W, Reinforced Insulation, Railway Standard
Test Setup
Peak-to-Peak Output Noise Measurement Test
Use a 1μF ceramic capacitor and a 10μF tantalum capacitor. Scope measurement should be made by using a BNC socket, measurement bandwidth is 0-20 MHz.
Position the load between 50 mm and 75 mm from the DC/DC Converter.

Technical Notes
Remote On/Off
Positive logic remote on/off turns the module on during a logic high voltage on the remote on/off pin, and off during a logic low. To turn the power module on and off,
the user must supply a switch to control the voltage between the on/off terminal and the -Vin terminal. The switch can be an open collector or equivalent. A logic low is
0V to 1.2V. A logic high is 3.5V to 12V. The maximum sink current at the on/off terminal (Pin 3) during a logic low is -100μA.
Overload Protection
To provide hiccup mode protection in a fault (output overload) condition, the unit is equipped with internal current limiting circuitry and can endure overload for an
unlimited duration.
Overvoltage Protection
The output overvoltage clamp consists of control circuitry, which is independent of the primary regulation loop, that monitors the voltage on the output terminals.
The control loop of the clamp has a higher voltage set point than the primary loop. This provides a redundant voltage control that reduces the risk of output
overvoltage. The OVP level can be found in the output data.
Input Source Impedance
The power module should be connected to a low ac-impedance input source. Highly inductive source impedances can affect the stability of the power module.
In applications where power is supplied over long lines and output loading is high, it may be necessary to use a capacitor at the input to ensure startup.
Capacitor mounted close to the power module helps ensure stability of the unit, it is recommended to use a good quality low Equivalent Series Resistance (ESR < 1.0
Ω at 100 KHz) capacitor of a 33μF for the 12V input devices and a 10μF for the 24V and 48V devices.

Output Ripple Reduction
A good quality low ESR capacitor placed as close as practicable across the load will give the best ripple and noise performance. To reduce output ripple, it is
recommended to use 4.7μF capacitors at the output.

Maximum Capacitive Load
The MKZI10 series has limitation of maximum connected capacitance at the output. The power module may be operated in current limiting mode during start-up,
affecting the ramp-up and the startup time. The maximum capacitance can be found in the data sheet.
Thermal Considerations
Many conditions affect the thermal performance of the power module, such as orientation, airflow over the module and board spacing. To avoid exceeding the
maximum temperature rating of the components inside the power module, the case temperature must be kept below 105℃. The derating curves are determined from
measurements obtained in a test setup.
