CHAPTER 1: INTRODUCTION
1.1 GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The HE104 multiple output DC to DC 50 watt converter is a high efficiency, high performance unit
that can be supplied with +5V, +12V outputs only or can include features such as, Power
Management, Universal Battery Charger, AC Bus termination, -5V output, -12V output and custom
output voltages from -42V to +42V. The HE104 is designed for low noise embedded PC/104
computer systems, which has a wide input range of 6 to 40V(>6:1) and is ideal for battery or
unregulated input applications. The HE104 is specifically designed for vehicular applications and has
heavy-duty transient suppressors (5000W) that clamp the input voltage to safe levels. Further, it is
able to maintain normal power supply operation.
The HE104 is a state-of-the-art MOSFET based design that provides outstanding line and load
regulation with efficiencies up to 95 percent. Organic Semiconductor Capacitors provide filtering,
which reduces ripple noises below 20mV. The low noise design makes the HE104 ideal for use
aboard aircraft, military applications or wherever EMI or RFI must be minimized. The +5VDC and
+12VDC outputs are controlled by a constant off-time current mode architecture regulator, which
provides excellent line and load transient response.
The +12VDC boost regulator uses the +5VDC as input power, so it can operate without dropout from
6 to 40V input and supply 2A. The +5VDC output is protected from output shorts by a high-speed
pulse-by-pulse current limit circuit. Furthermore, +12VDC output is protected from shorts by the
current limiting of the +5VDC controller.
A “plug-in” Universal Battery Charger (BC104) is available for the HE104 to charge Lead-Acid, NiCd
and NiMH batteries. Charge currents can be up to1.5A and battery charging voltages range from 6 to
40V.
The Power Management controller (PM104) allows for timed on/off control of the HE104, bus
interrupts on impending power failure, current limit setting and intelligent charge termination for the
BC104.
The HE104 is provided in a PC/104 form factor compliant size, which includes the 8bit and 16bit
PC/104 expansion bus header. All generated voltages are provided to their related power supply pins
on the PC/104 expansion bus and are available for off-board use through a screw terminal block.
PC/104 AC bus termination is an option that is available on the HE104,that provides the cleanest
possible signals on the PC/104 bus.
The HE104 can be configured to meet almost any power supply need for embedded PC/104
applications. This could be a simple +5V application, which provides for back lighted LCD panels or
a full UPS (un-interruptible power supply configuration).

2.2 Power Considerations
Usable +5V output =10A – (I [-5] + I [-12] • 2.4 + I [12] • 2.4)
0.8
The +5V switching regulator is rated at 10A maximum output however, the +5V output, supplies
power to the +12VDC, -5VDC and –12VDC regulators. To obtain the usable range of +5V output,
“derate” according to the use of +12VDC, -5VDC and –12VDC. Use the following formulae to
calculate the maximum usuable output.
Where: I[-5] = -5VDC current load
I[-12] = -12VDC current load
I[12] = 12VDC current load
Assuming 90 percent convertor efficiency (actual efficiency may vary).
2.3 HE104 Connectors
2.3.1 Main Input Power Connector
Input power is connected to the “pluggable” block, CN1, which is removable from the socket
connector on the circuit board. The power supply accepts DC input voltages in the range of
6VDC to 40VDC.
Unregulated vehicle power is connected as follows:
-Terminal 1: “hot” polarity
-Terminal 2: Common (0VDC)
!! CAUTION !!
To allow operation at the lowest possible input voltages (6VDC) and for the best efficiency, there is
no input Reverse Polarity Diode (RPD) provided on the HE104 without a battery charger option. If
input RPD is required, add RPD to the HE104 part number:
-
Example HE 104-512-16-RPD
Note: Adding the RPD results in an increased power loss. For heat dissipation estimation please
refer to section 2.11.

2.3.3 Battery Power Connector (Optional)
Batteries are connected to the screw terminal block, CN3. The HE104 accepts DC battery
voltages in the range of 6.5V to 40DVC through the Battery Power Connector. Two external
signals can be connected to the battery terminal block for use by add-on modules plugged into
the mezzanine header connectors. Connect to the HE104 Battery Terminal Block as follows:
-Terminal 1: Common of battery
-Terminal 2: Positive Battery Terminal
-Terminal 3: External signal 1
-Terminal 4: External signal 2
Note: When Optional Plug-IN Boost regulator (VR3) is ordered, batteries or external signals
cannot be connected to CN3. See section 2.3.4
2.3.4 Onboard PC “Boost” Adaption (Optional)
An optional converter Boost pump (model NMH05XXS, XX=output voltage, + 5V, +9V, +12V,
+15V) can be installed in location VR3 to provide custom output voltages. The NMH charge
pumps have an isolated positive and negative output and a maximum 2-watt capacity. A
minimum load of 10 percent is required for proper operation. By connecting the charge pump to
other voltages, the user can create more or less supplies, as well as elevated and negative
voltages (i.e.: The charge pump “0V” is not connected to the HE104 common).

-30V by connecting NMH +V to Common
+30V by connecting NMH –V to Common
+42V by connecting NMH –V to +12V output
Note: When batteries or external signals are connected to CN3 the Plug-IN Boost regulator
(VR3) cannot be installed. See section 2.3.4
2.4 Bus Termination (Optional)
AC bus termination minimizes power consumption as it improves the reliability of the bus. The
resistor/capacitor combination only conducts a current during the few nanoseconds when the bus
signal is changing state. See appendix “B”.
2.5 Installation Onto PC104 Modules
The PC/104 bus on the HE104, is keyed according to the standards as set out by the PC/104
Consortium Guidelines. Pin B10, of the 8-bit bus, and pin C20, of the 16-bit bus, are removed. It is
important to note that the female sockets are not plugged. Although, it is highly recommended the
female sockets be plugged to prevent mis-alignment with other PC/104 modules however, this is left
up to the customer.
Because of the large number of pins and sockets (104 total) in the PC/104 bus, caution must be used
in separating the PC/104 modules to prevent bending of the pins or cutting the person separating the
modules. Tri-M Engineering recommends the use of the PC/104 removal tool (model #5535) is
available from Tri-M Engineering.
2.6 Jumper Selection
This section describes the function, the location of it, the default setting and how to change each
jumper on the HE104-V8.
2.6.1 LED Jumper Enable/Disable
The jumpers that are located behind each LED, allow the LEDs to be disabled, which are most
likely to be used when absolute minimum power consumption is maintained such as, when
operating off a limited battery source..
Each LED is enabled by factory default. To disable any LED, remove the LED jumper (or cut
the small PCB trace if no jumper is installed) associated with the LED. To re-enable any LED,
re-install the associated jumper (or solder a short jumper wire between each of the jumper
pads).

2.6.2 +5VDC Low Q/ Noise (Q=quiescent)
This jumper allows the +5VDC regulator IC1 to be changed from the low ripple noise mode into
the low quiescent power mode. This option is most likely to be used when absolute minimum
power consumption must be maintained such as, when operating off a limited battery source. It
is recommended that the +12vDC Low Noise mode be selected whenever the +5VDC Low Q.
mode is not required.
The PCB jumper trace is located on the bottom of the circuit board between two pads. Location
of the jumper is identified on the left side of the heat sink by “Low Q/Noise”. Refer to figure 2.1
for exact location of +5VDC Low Q/Noise jumper.
The factory default setting for Low Q/Noise is for low ripple noise. To change the factory default
setting to Low Q operation, the small PCB jumper trace must be cut using the tip of a sharp
knife. To return to Low Noise operation, solder a jumper connecting the jumper pads.
2.6.3 +12VDC Low Q/ Noise
This jumper allows the +12VDC regulator IC1 to be changed from low ripple noise mode into
the low quiescent power mode. This option is most likely to be used when absolute minimum
power consumption must be maintained such as, when operating off a limited battery source.
The PCB jumper trace is located on the bottom of the circuit board, between two pads of jumper
block JP2. Location of the jumper is identified on the right side of the heat sink by “Low Q” with
“Low Noise” directly below it. Refer to figure 2.1 for exact location of +12VDC Low Q, Low
Noise jumper.
The factory default setting for Low Q, Low Noise is for low ripple noise. To change the factory
default setting to Low Q operation, the small jumper connecting JP2-1 to JP2-2 must be cut
using the tip of a sharp knife and solder a jumper across the pads JP2-2 to JP-3. To return to
Low Noise operation, remove the jumper between JP1-2 and JP2-3 and re-install the jumper
connecting JP2-1 to JP2-2.
2.6.4 Mezzanine Expansion Headers
The mezzanine expansion headers are used for installation of the optional battery charger. The
mezzanine expansion headers can also be used for custom output voltages such as, Vee for
LCD panels. If custom output voltages are required please contact Tri-M Engineering.

Interrupts to the PC/104 bus require the installation of the optional power management
mircrocontroller (PM104). The PM104 can be programmed to provide indication of loss of input
power, low battery voltage or to provide indication to the PC/104 CPU to begin an orderly shutdown
of program operation.
Two separate interrupt requests can be generated and each interrupt request will remain active until
the cause of the interrupt request returns to normal. Interrupt Int1 can be set to IRQ6 or IRQ7, while
interrupt Int2 can be set to IRQ4 or IRQ5 by installing an appropriate jumper on jumper selections
block J4. Jumper block J4 is located adjacent to the PC/104 bus on the opposite side where the

2.10 HE104 Efficiency and Heat Dissipation Calculation
The average efficiency for the +5V output of the HE104 is 90 percent. The efficiency, however, at any
specific input voltage, output load and ambient temperature many be higher or lower. Typical
efficiency is between 88 and 94 percent. Best efficiency occurs at mid input voltage ranging from16
to 18V, mid output loads are from 20 to 30 watts and a low heat sink temperature. The input voltage
and output load is determined by the system application. This leaves only the heat sink temperature
that System Intergrators adjust to maximize efficiency. Either the forced flow fans, which thermally
couples the HE104 heat sink to enclosures or external heat sinks can improve the efficiency of the
HE104. An improvement of 3 to 4 percent, can be obtained by good thermal management in which
the results are 35 percent less heat dissipated.
A. Heat Dissipated (HD) = Input Power – Actual Load
Where Input Power = Input Voltage * Input Current and Actual Load = +5V load +(+12V load)
+(-5V load) + (-12V load) (Load measured in watts)
B. Estimated Heat Dissipated (ESD) can be calculated based on 90 percent efficiency:
EHD = {+5V load + [(+12V load) +(-12V load)]/0.9} * 0.1
C. If the Battery Input option is installed or the Reverse Diode Protection (RDP) option installed
additional heat will be dissipated.

CHAPTER 3: THEORY OF OPERATION
3.1 Input power protection
Input power is connected to the screw terminal block, CN1, which is removable from the socket
connector on the circuit board. A 10 ampere “pico” fuse F1 limits the current draw from the power
source. A series of devices, (toroid coil L3, transorb D4 and filter capacitors, C8A,C8B and C8D)
filters and clamps the input power.
Transorb D4 is a 5KVA, heavy-duty, transient suppressor. Transorb D4 provides “zener” type
protection and has an avalanche voltage of 43V. It is electrically located before fuse F1 to prevent
activation of the fuse during a “load dump” or large transient. Sustained voltages greater than the
avalanche voltage must not be applied or transorb D4 will fail.
3.2 Switching Regulator, +5VDC
A switching regulator IC1, generates the +5VDC output, which operates in a “buck” mode
synchronous switching regulator configuration. It does this by using inductor coil L1, upper mosfet
Q4, lower mosfet Q5, schottky diode D8, input filter capacitors C8A, C8B, C8C, C8D and output filter
capacitors C2, C3, C9A, C9B and C9C. Regulator IC1, is a current mode controller that adjusts the
“switching cycle” by the sensed current, instead of directly by the output voltage sensing error
amplifier, in regulator IC1. This further sets the current trip level. Operating frequency is set by
capacitor C5.
A total of 15 amperes can be supplied to the connected +5VDC load and +12VDC regulator, the –
5VDC, -12VDC charge pumps and the invertors. The +5VDC power is available on the PC/104
expansion bus and screw terminal connector CN2.
At start-up, a low dropout 4.5V source located in regulator IC1, provides the operating voltage Vcc for
the mosfets and control circuitry. After start-up, regulator IC1, is in a sleep mode whenever the
output level is within the burst mode voltage limits. As soon as the +5VDC output drops below the
burst low-level voltage, normal switching regulator operation begins and continues until the +5VDC
output reaches the upper burst level voltage. Then regulator IC1 is put into sleep mode again. When
low quiescent power mode is enabled, regulator IC1 burst mode operation will begin at approximately
1.5 ampere output. The output ripple when regulator IC1 is operating in burst mode, is 50millivolts.
The +5VDC regulator functions fully down to 6VDC input. Below 6VDC input, the +5VDC output will
track the input and have a drop proportional to the resistive losses on the HE104. The HE104
operates up to 40VDC input.

3.3 Switching regulator, +12VDC
A switching regulator IC2, generates the +12VDC output and operates in a “Boost” mode switching
regulator configuration which uses inductor coil L2, mosfet Q7, schottky diode Q6, input filter
capacitors C9A, C9B, C9C and output filter capacitors C15A and C15B. Capacitors C9A, C9B and
C9C work as an output filter for the +5VDC and as an input filter for the +12VDC regulator IC2.
Regulator IC2 is a current mode controller and adjusts the “switching cycle” by the sensed current,
rather than directly by the output voltage. Using the output of a voltage sensing error amplifier in
regulator IC2 does control the output voltage, which is sensed by resistors R18 and R19. This further
sets the current trip level. If a custom output voltage is ordered, variable resistor R21 (in series with
R19) will adjust the feedback voltage. Operating frequency is set by capacitor C22.
A total of 2 amperes can be supplied to the connected +12VDC load and the –12VDC invertor. The
+12VDC power is available on the PC/104 expansion bus and screw terminal connector CN2.
A low quiescent power mode uses the built-in “Burst” mode feature of the regulator IC2. Low
quiescent power mode reduces power by placing regulator IC2 in a sleep mode whenever the output
level is within the “Burst” mode voltage limits. As soon as the +12VDC output drops below the burst
low-level voltage, normal switching regulator operation begins and continues until the +12VDC output
reaches the upper burst level voltage. Then regulator IC2 is put into sleep mode again. When low
quiescent power mode is enabled, regulator IC2 “Burst” mode operation will begin at approximately
0.3 ampere output.
Note: Low quiescent power mode should only be selected if absolute minimum current consumption
is required. At output currents about 0.3 amperes, low quiescent power mode will not increase
efficiency and may result in regulator IC2 jumping into “Burst” mode resulting from noise on the
+12VDC output. No harm to IC2 will occur from this, but increased ripple on the +12VDC output will
occur.
3.4 Charge Pumps
The –12VDC is generated by first charging capacitor C13 to +12VDC when mosfet Q7 is turned off.
Diode, D6, provides a path to common for the charge current. When mosfet, Q7, is turned on, the
charge on C13 is transferred to the –12VDC output capacitor, C9, through mosfet, Q10. Mosfet Q10
is synchronized with mosfet, Q7, through a level shifter (C19, D13 and R26)
The –5VDC is generated by a secondary coil on inductor L1. By design, the inductor in a buck
regulator will maintain the output voltage across it. The secondary winding, having the same number
of turns as the primary, will also have the same output voltage across it. By referencing the positive
end of the secondary coil to common, -5V is created. Diode D3 and capacitor C14 improve the
regulation. Capacitor C16 provides output filtering. The –5V is rated at 500mA, however for best
regulation, the –5V load should be limited to 10 percent of the +5V load.

3.5 Filter Capacitors
At 10kHz and above, the impedance of filter capacitors is essentially their effective series resistance
(ESR) and this parasitic resistance limits the filtering effectiveness of the capacitors. The filter
capacitors absorb the “switching ripple” current with their 100m0hm ESR that absorbs a 5A ripple
current and will dissipate 2.5W of heat.
The capacitors used for filtering in the HE104 are organic semiconductor (OS-CON) capacitors. The
OS-CON is an aluminium solid capacitor with organic semi-conductive electrolyte used as cathode
conductive materials. The OS-CON has many advantages over the conventional electrolytic:
-
-
-
Very low ESR values, less than 8 times lower for same package.
High ripple current rating, over 4 times higher for same package.
No degrade in operation at extended low temperatures. (ESR value of conventional
electrolytics can increase 25 fold at –40C).
The life expectation for a filter capacitor is typically 2,000 to 6,000 hours @ 105C. For a conventional
electrolytic capacitor the temperature acceleration coefficient = 2 for a 10C increase, while the OS-
CON has a temperature acceleration coefficient = 10 for a 20C increase. For example, a capacitor
rated for 2,000 hours @ 105C would have an expected life of:
For conventional electrolytic capacitor
32,000 hours (3.6 years) @ 65C
128,000 hours (14.6 years) @ 45C
For OS-CON capacitor
200,000 hours (22 years) @ 65C
2,000,000 hours (220 years) @ 45C
This means that the OS-CON has extremely longer life in practical use, even under the same
warranty of 2,000 hours @ 105C.
In a buck convertor, output ripple voltage is determined by both the inductor value and the output
filter capacitor (for continuous mode).

capacitor is purely resistive at the frequencies about 20kHz. Worst case output ripple is at highest
input voltage. Ripple voltage is independent of load (for continuous mode).

APPENDIX 2: ADVANTAGES OF USING AC TERMINATION:
One of the requirements of embedded electronics is low power consumption. One method of
reducing power is to reduce the drive current available to power the expansion bus. With over 80
signal lines, any reduction in current load would have a large impact on overall requirements. The
PC/104 Consortium Guidelines for the expansion bus specify drive current can be as low as 4mA.
Compared with the 24mA for the standard desktop computer, this is an 84 percent reduction in the
drive current available.
This disadvantage to reducing drive current is the increasing possibility for noise to infiltrate the bus.
The symptoms of noise-induced problems are often flaky or unreliable operation. Systems suffering
from noisy busses are often difficult to diagnose and solve. Programmers blame the hardware
engineers and the hardware engineers blame the software programmers.
With reduced drive currents, more attention must be paid to reducing the noise levels on the PC/104
bus. One frequently used method is bus terminators. Testing has proven the best way to terminate
the PC/104 bus is to use AC terminators instead of resistive terminators. This is the recommended
termination method for Ampro CPU products. The IEEE P996 PC Bus Standard recommends the
AC bus terminating technique.
The use of AC terminators had several advantages over DC terminators:
-
Reduced power consumption: DC terminators are typically in the 330 ohm to 1K ohm
range and draw heavy currents. This is significant when terminating the over 80 signals
on the PC/104 bus. AC terminators draw current only during the few nanoseconds when
the bus signal is changing state, resulting in negligible current drain.
-
-
-
Improved bus reliability: DC terminators invariably increase the voltage level of the logic
zero state. This decreases noise immunity, making it more likely that a zero will be seen
as a one. AC terminators do not cause this shift, resulting in a more reliable bus.
Reduced crosstalk: AC terminators roll off the signal transitions on the bus. The result
is a quieter bus, which has fewer high frequency effects such as crosstalk to other bus
lines.
Reduced EMI: Busses with AC termination tend to generate less EMI than resistively
terminated buses due to the reduction in high frequency components of signal transitions.

APPENDIX 3: Installation Hints for the HE104 Power Supply:
1. To minimize noise induced into the power supply, connect the HE104 power supply direct to
the power supply source (battery) with “dedicated” wires. This makes use of the vehicle
battery as a filter.
2. Always use large gauge hook-up wires to connect the HE104 power supply to the vehicle
power source (battery). This minimizes any voltage drop caused by the resistance of the wire.
Use minimum of AWG #16 for lengths less than 10 feet and AWG #14 for longer lengths.
3. Wherever possible, install the HE104 power supply on to the top of the HE104 card stack.
This will allow better dissipation of heat from the heat sink. If additional cooling is required,
use either forced air ventilation or mount the PC/104 power supply so that the heat sink can
dissipate heat to the enclosure.
APPENDIX 4: Vehicles Are An Electronics Nightmare:
Under the hood of a vehicle is an electronics nightmare. EMI spraying and RFI sparking is
everywhere and electrical transients run amuck, zapping the embedded electronics. Electronics
located in that environment must withstand 600V transients and “load dump” situations. Although
the automotive market is growing about 2 percent yearly, the amount of electronics being
introduced into vehicles is much higher. The electronics on a vehicle are no longer just the radio
and engine computer, but cellular phones, portable computers, faxes, smart navigation with
Global Positioning Receiver and car alarm systems.
The infamous “load dump” is an energy surge resulting from disconnecting the battery while being
charged. The alternator, with a finite response time of 40msec to 400msec, generates power with
nowhere to go. Thus an energy surge is formed; much like a tidal wave that builds to an
enormous height as it crashes the beach. The resultant over voltage is the most formidable
transient encountered in the automotive environment and is an exponentially decaying positive
voltage. The actual amplitude depends on alternator speed, the level of alternator field excitation
and can exceed 100V.
Each electronic component had its own power supply and it is the power supplies that must
absorb the transients and energy surges. What makes one transient more dangerous than
another transient is not the voltage level, but the amount of energy it carries. A600V, 1msec
transient had much less energy than a 100V, 400msec surge. Regardless of the source, all over
voltages must be clamped and prevented from passing through to the rest of the electronics.
There are a number of methods for clamping over voltages, but the most efficient and cost
effective is to shunt the current to ground using a surge suppressor. The surge suppressor relies
on the vehicle’s wiring and alternator impedance as the current limit and it remains in a high
impedance state until an over voltage condition occurs. Standard devices such as transorbs

(P6KE or 1.5KE) will not survive the high-energy discharge of a “load dump”. Special automotive
suppressors must be used to use up the 20A to 30A peak currents being shunted. Several
manufacturers, such as Motorola, Harris and Seimens, manufacture suppressors specifically for
automotive applications. Some devices provide “zener diode” style protection, while others
provide “back to back zener diode” bidirectional protection. Each type has advantages, but
unless they are used correctly, they will fail to protect the electronics. Ratings on the transient
suppressors can be confusing. A suppressor with an avalanche voltage of 24V to 32V will have a
clamp off voltage of over 40V. In addition, ambient temperature can vary from –40C to 70C and
can result in the avalanche voltage being several volts lower at –40C and a clampoff several volts
higher at 70C.
Not all vehicles have 12V battery systems. Some trucks use 24V batteries, aircraft use 28V and
trains from 45V to 85V. Transient suppressors for aircraft cannot use the 12V system automotive
components. Instead, a suppressor with an avalanche rating of 35V is needed to allow for low
ambient temperature compensation, but this results in clamp off of over 70V. Tri-M Engineering’s
High Efficiency PC/104 Vehicle Power Supply, employs a Diode Inc. (part#5KP43A), allowing an
input voltage range of 6V to 40V. If a high clamp off voltage cannot be tolerated, other techniques
must be used. A series device such as a MOSFET can act as a pre-regulator, but it also must be
selected to withstand transients. In addition a series device adds to in-efficiency and creates a
heat dissipation problem, especially at high ambients.
“Load dumps” occur infrequently in a vehicle’s lifetime, but any electronics wishing to survive in
this environment must be designed to withstand the assaults. “Load dumps” co-operate slightly
through, their worst-case voltage does not typically occur with worst-case source impedance. In
fact, although the total energy of a “load dump” may be 500 joules, a transient suppressor
capable of 70 joules typically will be adequate because of the distributed electronics in the
vehicles. That is, provided the suppressor ratings are the same or larger than other suppressors
throughout the vehicle. A quick thinking engineer can take advantage of this and design his
power supply to withstand higher voltages and thus let others’ transient suppressors do the work.

BC104 Battery Charger and PM104 Power Management Units
1) Description
When the BC104 and PM104 units are both installed on either the V104 or HE104 (hereafter
referred to as PSU), as universal battery charger can be setup and the PSU unit made into an
UPS (uninterruptible power supply).
The BC104 is a constant current “buck” switching regulator with an adjustable “float” voltage. The
float voltage is adjusted via a potentiometer. The PM104 is programmed by the user using a
“control basic” called Pbasic. A sample program is supplied to show a typical NiCd charging
control. Before using the BC104 and the PM104 the battery charging program must be set up for
the intended battery pack. The sample program has separate settings for normal charge current
and trickle charge current. In addition, the charge termination methods should be set, including

maximum charge time, negative delta V. The user must set these for the type and size of battery
to be charged. Typically charge currents will be 1/3 to 1/6 of battery capacity and trickly charge
current 1/20 to 1/30 of battery capacity. Addition of a battery temperature sensor will allow charge
termination when elevated battery temperatures (which indicates battery is fully charged).
The PM104 can be programmed for many additional features not included in the sample program.
Features such as setting a PC/104 bus interrupt when main power fails, stopping the PSU after
running on battery backup power for a set time, tracking power consumption so that backup
battery charging can be terminated when same amount restored to the battery. These features
are left to the OEM integrate into their design.
2. Connections:
The BC104 is mounted on two connectors under the PSU heatsink, CN5 and CN6. The PM104 is
factory installed directly in front of the PC/104 bus, location IC3. Connector CN4 is for connection
to a PC parallel port for programming. Batteries are connected to the screw terminal block, CN3.
The PSU accepts DC battery voltages
in the range of 6.5 to 20VDC through the Battery Power Connector CN3. Two external signals
can be connected to the battery terminal block for use by add-on modules plugged into the
mezzanine header connectors. Connect to the HE104 Battery Terminal Block as follows:
-
-
-
-
Terminal 1: Common of battery
Terminal 2: Positive Battery Terminal
Terminal 3: External signal 1, normally connected to terminal 2
Terminal 4: External signal 2, 0 to 40V input
The two external signals are fed into the 12 bit analog to digital convertor and will accept voltages up
to 40V. The sample program requires the External signal 1 (Terminal 3) be connected to Positive
Battery voltage (Terminal 2) for battery voltage sensing.

A variety of temperature sensors can be connected including thermistors and conditioned sensors
such as LM35s. The LM35 series is particularly nice because their output voltage is directly
proportional to temperature (ie 10mV/C or 10mV/F). In any case, the OEM can “experiment” to
determine what works best in their application.
3. Programming Cable:
The programming cable is plugged into the connector CN4 on the PSU and the other end into the
25pin DB parallel port connector on a PC. The programming cable has the following connections:
CN4-1
CN4-2
CN4-3
CN4-4
No connection
Connect to pin 25 on parallel port
Connect to pin 11 parallel port
Connect to pin 2 parallel port
4. Download and Edit Software:
All programs for the PM104 are written in a “Control Basic” program language and are saved into
an ASCII file with a “BAS” extension. Any text editor can be used to create, edit and save these
programs. The Download program called “Stamp.exe” also has simple editing capabilities.
After the program cable is connected between the PSU and the parallel port, the PSU unit can be
turned on, thus providing power to the PM104 unit. The Download program Stamp. Exe is started
by typing from DOS, STAMP.EXE. The program to be downloaded is opened by pressing the
keys “ALT” and “L” simultaneously. Using the arrow keys select the desired file and press
ENTER key. To download the program press the keys “ALT” and “R” simultaneously. If the cable
is properly connected and power applied the screen will show a horizontal bar graph indicating
the percent of program downloaded. The red area of the bar graph is the portion used and the
remainder is program space available.
5. Program Command and Syntax:
Please refer to the Adobe files BSBOOK1.PDF and BSBOOK2.PDF.
6. Adjusting the BC104 Float Limits:
When a PC/104 power supply is equipped with a BC104 and a PM104 the BC104 has a Float
Voltage Adjust potentiometer. However, the Current Limit Adjust potentiometer is not installed
and is controlled via the PM104.
Using a small screwdriver (flexible nylon works best), turn the potentiometer until the desired float
voltage is obtained. No load should be present when adjusting.

ADC Interface Pins
-The LTC 1594 uses a four-pin interface, consisting of chip-select, clock data input and data output.
In this application, we tie the data lines together and connect to the PM104 pin designated DIO.
Here’s where the conversion occurs. The PM104 first sends the setup bits to the LTC1594, then
clocks in two bits followed by (sample time), one null bit (a dummy bit that always reads 0, followed
by the conversion data.
