2.4.2.16 Residual Voltage Immunity in Standby Mode
Each DC/DC converter is immune to any residual voltage placed on its respective output
(typically a leakage voltage through the system from standby output) up to 500mV. This
residual voltage does not have any adverse effect on each DC/DC converter, such as: no
additional power dissipation or over-stressing/over-heating any internal components or
adversely affecting the turn-on performance (no protection circuits tripping during turn on).
While in Stand-by mode, at no load condition, the residual voltage on each DC/DC converter
output does not exceed 100mV.
2.4.3 Protection Circuits
The PDB shall shut down all the DC/DC converters on the PDB and the power supply (from
PSON) if there is a fault condition on the PDB (OVP or OCP). If the PDB DC/DC converter
latches off due to a protection circuit tripping, an AC cycle OFF for 15sec min or a PSON# cycle
HIGH for 1sec shall be able to reset the power supply and the PDB.
2.4.3.1 Over-Current Protection (OCP)/240VA Protection
Each DC/DC converter output on PDB has individual OCP protection circuits. The PS+PDB
combo shall shutdown and latch off after an over current condition occurs. This latch shall be
cleared by toggling the PSON
#
signal or by an AC power interruption. The values are measured
at the PDB harness connectors. The DC/DC converters shall not be damaged from repeated
power cycling in this condition. Also, the +12V output from the power supply is divided on the
PDB into 3 channels and +12V3 is limited to 240VA of power. There are current sensors and
limit circuits to shut down the entire PS+PDB combo if the limit is exceeded. The limits are listed
in below table. -12V and 5VSB is protected under over current or shorted conditions so that no
damage can occur to the power supply. Auto-recovery feature is a requirement on 5VSB rail.
