Performance/Functional Specifications
Typical @ TA = +25°C under nominal line voltage and full-load conditions unless noted. ➀
➀ All models are tested/specified with external 22µF input/output capacitors.These caps
accommodate our test equipment and may not be required to achieve specified performance
in your applications. All models are stable and regulate within spec under no-load conditions.
➁ See Technical Notes and Performance Curves for details.
➂ The On/Off Control (pin 11) is designed to be driven with open-collector logic or the appli-
cation of appropriate voltages (referenced to Common, pins 5 and 6).
➃ Output noise may be further reduced with the installation of additional external output
filtering. See I/O Filtering and Noise Reduction.
➄ MTBF’s are calculated using Telcordia SR-332(Bellcore), ground fixed, TA = +25°C, full
power, natural convection, +67°C pcb temperature.

Return Current Paths
The LSN D12 SIP’s are non-isolated DC/DC converters. Their two Common
pins (pins 5 and 6) are connected to each other internally (see Figure 1). To
the extent possible (with the intent of minimizing ground loops), input return
current should be directed through pin 6 (also referred to as –Input or
Input Return), and output return current should be directed through pin 5
(also referred to as –Output or Output Return). Any on/off control signals
applied to pin 11 (On/Off Control) should be referenced to Common
(specifically pin 6).
I/O Filtering and Noise Reduction
All models in the LSN D12 Series are tested and specified with external
22µF tantalum input and output capacitors. These capacitors are necessary
to accommodate our test equipment and may not be required to achieve?
desired performance in your application. The LSN D12's are designed with
high-quality, high-performance internal I/O caps, and will operate within spec
in most applications with no additional external components.
In particular, the LSN D12's input capacitors are specified for low ESR
and are fully rated to handle the units' input ripple currents. Similarly, the
internal output capacitors are specified for low ESR and full-range frequency
response. As shown in the Performance Curves, removal of the external 22
µF
tantalum output caps has minimal effect on output noise.
In critical applications, input/output ripple/noise may be further reduced using
filtering techniques, the simplest being the installation of external I/O caps.
External input capacitors serve primarily as energy-storage devices. They
minimize high-frequency variations in input voltage (usually caused by IR
drops in conductors leading to the DC/DC) as the switching converter draws
pulses of current. Input capacitors should be selected for bulk capacitance (at
appropriate frequencies), low ESR, and high rms-ripple-current ratings. The
switching nature of modern DC/DC's requires that the dc input voltage
source have low ac impedance at the frequencies of interest. Highly inductive
source impedances can greatly affect system stability. Your specific system
configuration may necessitate additional considerations.
Output ripple/noise (also referred to as periodic and random deviations
or PARD) may be reduced below specified limits with the installation of
additional external output capacitors. Output capacitors function as true filter
