Introduction 

Overview 

The C48/24-1500 is a compact DC/DC converter module which 
offers efficient power conversion.  It operates from a 
nominal -48Vdc source to provide n24Vdc load power. 

Specifications 

DC Output Ratings 

 

Voltage:  N24 volts DC, negative ground.  
Output voltage is adjustable from 24 to 28 volts DC via 
the associated Controller. 

 

Nameplate Rating:  24 to 28 Vdc, 1500W. 

 

Regulation: 

a.

 

Output Voltage Tolerance:  < ±0.2% when the load is 
50% and the temperature is from +15 to +35°C; 
< ±0.5% when the load is 50% and the temperature is 
from -5 to +55°C; < ±1% when the load is 50% and 
the temperature is from -20 to +55°C. 

b.

 

Temperature Regulation:  < ±0.02% when the load is 
50% at -48Vdc and temperature range is from -10°C 
to +55°C. 

c.

 

Dynamic Response:  The dynamic response time at 
rated input and output voltage is ≤ 200us and 
overshot ≤ 5% for load changes at 50%-25%-50% and 
50%-75%-50%. 

d.

 

The output voltage is accurate at half load.  At half 
load, the error of output voltage is ≤ ±100mV.  Static 
regulation will give other voltage depending on load.  
The default value at half load is 27V. 

 

Filtering: 

a.

 

Peak-peak voltage is ≤ 250mV at 1-100MHz and 
normal output voltage. 

b.

 

Psophemetic noise voltage is ≤ 2mV between 
5-100% of the maximum load (output voltage 
> 24V). 

c.

 

Wideband noise is < 20mV rms between 
25HZ-20kHz (test according to ETS300132). 

d.

 

Output noise according to Telcordia GR-947-CORE: 
< 38 dBrnC (between 5-100% of the maximum load, 
output voltage > 24V). 

 

Ripple Attenuation:  Ripple attenuation is better than 
+24dB, input to output and f < 360Hz. 

DC Input Ratings 

 

Voltage:  Nominal -48 volts DC. 

 

Nameplate Rating:  -41 to -58.5 Vdc, 39.5A max. 

 

Inrush Current:  The peak value of the inrush current does 
not exceed 2 times the maximum steady-state peak 
value. 

 

Input Regulation:  ≤ ±0.1% when the load is 100% at -42 
to -58.5 Vdc input and temperature is +25°C. 

 

Temperature Coefficient:  ≤ ±0.02%/°C over the specified 
operating temperature range. 

 

Typical Input Data:  When equipped with one DC-DC 
converter module. 

a.

 

See 

Table 1

. 

b.

 

Maximum Current:  Input current is 39.5 amperes 
at -41.0 volts DC input and full load.
