7.0 Test Set-Up
7.1 Initial Set-Up
1) Examine the part number of the power module to determine of the unit is defined
for positive or negative logic enable as follows:
S48SS3R304NR would denote negative logic, while S48SS3R304PR would
denote positive logic (S48SS only).
2) If the power module has positive logic, switching SW1 to position HI or floating will
enable the power converter. Switching SW1 to position Low will disable the power
converter.
3) If the power module has negative logic, switching SW1 to position Low will enable
the power converter. Switching SW1 to position HI or floating will disable the power
converter.

6) Electronic Load
Turn on the Electronic Load and adjust the current level. The total output current is
4.5A (15W) for the S48SR power module and 4.5A (15W) for the S48SS power
module. Ensure the output load does not exceed the recommended maximum
current.
7) SW2 is used for trimming the output voltage. Turn SW2 to the OFF position if the
function is not being used. Turn SW2 to the UP position if trimming up is required.
Turn SW2 to the DOWN position if trimming down is required.
7.2 Initial Power Up
1) Turn the Power Supply on and increase the input voltage (use DVM2 to monitor the
voltage) until it reaches 48V (or the desired value).
2) Toggle SW1 to the appropriate logic position to turn the power module on (S48SS
only).
3) The converter is now operating, which can be verified by observing the DVM3
(approximately 3.3V.) and Channel 2 of the oscilloscope (+3.3V output).

4) The converter may also be turned on by switching SW1 to the appropriate logic
enable position and ramping the voltage manually or turning on the Power Supply
with a preset output voltage (S48SS only).
5) Toggle SW1 to the “OFF” position after performing each test (S48SS only).

8.2.3 Output Ripple
Output Ripple is defined as the periodic AC component at the DC/DC converters
output voltage. The output ripple is measured in Peak to Peak and RMS values, both
done with a specific bandwidth.

5) The output ripple of the DC/DC converter is measured at full load operating power.
8.3 Dynamic Characteristics
8.3.1 Output Voltage Deviation
Output Voltage Deviation is defined as the response of the converter to a sudden step
change in the output load current. The output voltage deviation is characterized by two
important parameters: Maximum Output Voltage Deviation and Response Time, which
is the length of time that the output voltage takes to return to 1% of its specified value
(please refer to the datasheet for the detailed specification).

8.3.2 Soft Start Turn-On Time
Soft Start Turn-On Time is defined as the time it takes for the output to rise to within
95% of its final value from the time when the converter is enabled. The rise time is

in the output voltage.

Note: Different electronic loads may have dramatically different results because of
their input characteristics during Turn-On. If the Turn-On appears abnormal, replace
with an actual resistive load of appropriate value.
The Soft Start Turn-On Time of the converter provided in the Evaluation Kit was
measured with the Electronic Load set at 4.5A.
