Description
Calex’s LSL Series provide an easy and reliable way to
parallel DC/DC Converters. The LSL module uses the
positive sense pin for accurate load sharing, leaving
the trim function unaffected. See application section for
layout recommendations.

rated output current unless otherwise noted. Refer to the CALEX
Application Notes for the denition of terms, measurement
circuits, and other information.
(2) Refer to the CALEX Application Notes for information on fusing.
(3) The current share ratio is dened as the percentage of the
individual converter currents entering the LSL module divided by
50% of the current exiting the LSL module. The latter being the
theoretical optimum load sharing current. This is measured at full
load.
(4) Load regulation is dened as the output voltage change when
changing load current from minimum to maximum.
(5) Short Term drift is specied after a 30 minute warm-up at full
load, constant line, load and ambient conditions.
(6) The baseplate thermal impedance is dened as the baseplate
temperature rise over ambient per package watt dissipated.
(7) Calex CBAM™ modules are designed to withstand most
solder/wash processes. Careful attention should be used
when assessing the applicability in your specic manufacturing
process. The CBAM™ modules are not hermetically sealed.
(8) Units are not short circuit or thermally protected.
(9) Torque fasteners into threaded mounting inserts at 12 in. oz. or
less. Greater torque may result in damage to unit and void the
warranty.
