The PQ60025QGA25 PowerQor Giga quarter-brick
converter is a next-generation, board-mountable, isolated,
fixed switching frequency DC/DC converter that uses syn-
chronous rectification to achieve extremely high conver-
sion efficiency. The power dissipated by the converter is
so low that a heatsink is not required, which saves cost,
weight, height, and application effort. All of the power
and control components are mounted to the multi-layer
PCB substrate with high-yield surface mount technology.
Since the PowerQor converter has no explicit thermal inter-
faces, it is extremely reliable.
PQ60025QGA25 Module
Operational Features
• Ultra-high efficiency, 86% at full rated load current
• Delivers up to 25 amps of output current with minimal
Protection Features
derating - no heatsink required
• Input under-voltage lockout disables converter at low
input voltage conditions
• Wide input voltage range: 35V – 75V with 100V
100ms input voltage transient capability
• Output current limit and short circuit protection protects
converter and load from permanent damage and conse-
quent hazardous conditions
• Fixed frequency switching provides predictable EMI per-
formance
• No minimum load requirement means no preload resis-
tors required
• Active back bias limit prevents damage to converter
from external load induced pre-bias
• Output over-voltage protection protects load from dam-
aging voltages
Mechanical Features
• Thermal shutdown protects converter from abnormal
• Industry standard quarter-brick pin-out configuration
• Industry standard size: 1.45” x 2.3” (36.8x58.4mm)
environmental conditions
• Total height less than 0.40” (10.2mm), permits better
airflow and smaller card pitch
• Total weight: 1.2 oz. (34 grams)
Safety Features
• 2000V, 30 MΩ input-to-output isolation provides
• Flanged pins designed to permit surface mount solder-
input/output ground separation
ing (avoid wave solder) using FPiP technique
• UL/cUL 60950 recognized (US & Canada), basic
insulation rating
Control Features
• TUV certified to EN60950
• On/Off control referenced to input side (positive and
negative logic options are available)
• Meets 72/23/EEC and 93/68/EEC directives which
facilitates CE Marking in user’s end product
• Remote sense for the output voltage compensates for
• Board and plastic components meet UL94V-0 flamma-
bility requirements
output distribution drops
• Output voltage trim permits custom voltages and volt-
age margining
