DESCRIPTION
The AHP Series of DC/DC converters feature high power density without derating over the full military temperature range. This series is offered as lower cost alternatives to the legendary AFL series with improved performance for new design applications. The internal current sharing circuits assure equal current distribution among the paralleled converters. Same as the AFL, the AHP series incorporates International Rectifier’s proprietary magnetic pulse feedback technology providing optimum dynamic line and load regulation response. This feedback system samples the output voltage at the pulse width modulator fixed clock frequency, nominally 550KHz. Multiple converters can be synchronized to a system clock in the 500KHz to 700KHz range or to the synchronization output of one converter. Undervoltage lockout, primary and secondary referenced inhibit, soft-start and load fault protection are provided on all models. Also included is input over-voltage protection, a new protection feature unique to the AHP.
