Model and Medical Application
Exact model
MPM-20-3.3; encapsulated PCB pin-type AC/DC power module. The final model-code field identifies the nominal DC output voltage.
Electrical protection class
Class II, double insulation, no functional-ground (FG) connection.
Patient-protection insulation
Primary-to-secondary isolation: 2 × MOPP.
BF application
Suitable for BF applications with appropriate system consideration; the power module alone does not certify a completed medical device as BF.
Typical applications
Portable medical devices, mobile clinical workstations, medical computer monitors and examination instruments.
The plastic enclosure and internal potting support compact construction, heat dissipation and vibration resistance. The reviewed pages do not specify an IP ingress-protection rating; comply with the stated non-condensing humidity conditions.
Model-Specific DC Output
DC voltage
3.3 V.
Rated continuous current
4.5 A.
Current range
0–4.5 A; no minimum load required.
Rated output power
14.9 W, as listed for this exact model.
Peak current
4.95 A, subject to the peak-load conditions below.
Peak output power
16.3 W, for a maximum of 10 seconds and subject to all duty-cycle and average-power limits.
Ripple and noise, maximum
150 mVp-p.
Voltage tolerance
±2.0%; includes set-up tolerance, line regulation and load regulation.
Line regulation
±0.5%.
Load regulation
±0.5%.
Efficiency, typical
81%.
Peak loading is limited to 33% maximum duty cycle within every 30 seconds, and average output power must not exceed this model’s rated output power. The 10-second peak specification does not remove either limit; reduce the duty further when the remaining load would otherwise exceed the permitted average.
Ripple and noise are measured at 20 MHz bandwidth with a 12-inch twisted pair terminated by 0.1 µF and 47 µF capacitors in parallel.
Input and Start-Up
AC input range
80–264 VAC, subject to low-input derating.
DC input range
113–370 VDC.
AC frequency
47–440 Hz.
Input current, typical
0.75 A at 115 VAC; 0.5 A at 230 VAC.
Cold-start inrush, typical
20 A at 115 VAC; 45 A at 230 VAC.
No-load input consumption
Less than 0.1 W.
Set-up and rise time
1500 ms set-up and 30 ms rise at both 230 VAC and 115 VAC, at full load.
Hold-up time, typical
40 ms at 230 VAC; 10 ms at 115 VAC, at full load.
Touch current
Less than 80 µA at 264 VAC; measured from primary input to DC output.
Switching frequency reference
100 kHz in the block diagram.
Unless specifically stated otherwise, catalogue parameters are measured at 230 VAC input, rated load and 25°C ambient. Typical figures are not guaranteed minimum performance values.
Protection
Short circuit and overload
Overload protection operates at 110–150% of rated output power. Hiccup mode recovers automatically after the fault is removed; short-circuit protection is also listed.
Overvoltage threshold
3.8–5 V.
Overvoltage action
Output voltage shuts off and is clamped by a zener diode.
Overtemperature action
Output shuts down and recovers automatically after temperature falls.
The overload-protection threshold is not a continuous output rating or an additional peak-load allowance. Observe the separately stated model-specific output and peak-load limits.
Cooling, Derating and Environment
Working ambient range
-35 to +85°C, with load derating.
Cooling and curve orientation
Fanless operation; the published ambient/load curve is for horizontal mounting.
Temperature/load curve for this model
-35°C: 100%; 50°C: 100%; 60°C: 70%; 70°C: 50%; 85°C: 30%.
Curve selection
3.3 V / 5 V output-voltage curve.
Input-voltage/load curve
At 60 Hz: 80% load at 80 VAC, rising to 100% at 100 VAC; 100% plateau from 100 to 264 VAC.
Operating humidity
20–90% RH, non-condensing.
Storage conditions
−40 to +85°C; 10–95% RH, non-condensing.
Temperature coefficient
±0.03%/°C over 0–55°C.
Vibration
10–500 Hz, 2 G, 10 minutes per cycle, 60 minutes each along X, Y and Z.
Operating altitude
Up to 5,000 m.
High-altitude temperature reduction
Above 2,000 m, reduce the allowable ambient temperature by 3.5°C per additional 1,000 m for this fanless module.
Use the complete temperature and input-voltage curves for intermediate conditions, and apply input, temperature, altitude and peak-load restrictions together. A wide operating-temperature range does not mean full rated load throughout that range.
