Fabricated on a 0.41 by 0.65 inch (10.4 by 16.5
mm) Single Inline Package (SIP) module, the OKI-
78SR series are non-isolated switching regulator
(SR) DC/DC power converters for embedded ap-
plications. The fixed single output converters offer
both tight regulation and high efficiency directly
at the power usage site and are a direct plug-in
replacement for TO-220 package 78xx series linear
regulators. Typically, no extra outside components
are required.
Two nominal output voltages are offered (3.3
and 5 VDC), each with 1.5 Amp maximum output.
Based on fixed-frequency buck switching topology,
the high efficiency means very low heat and little
electrical noise, requiring no external components.
The ultra wide input range is 7 to 36 Volts DC.
Protection features include short circuit current
limit protection. The OKI-78SR is designed to meet
all standards approvals. RoHS-6 (no lead) hazard-
ous material compliance is specified as standard.

Specifi
cation Notes:
(1)
All specifcations are typical unless noted. General conditions for Specifcations are +25 deg.C ambient
temperature, Vin=nominal, Vout=nominal, full rated load. Adequate airfow must be supplied �or extended
testing under power. See Derating curves.
All models are tested and specifed with no external capacitors. All models are stable and regulate within
spec under no-load conditions.
(2)
Input Back Ripple Current is tested and specifed over a 5 Hz to 20 MHz bandwidth. Input fltering is Cin=2 x
100 μF, Cbus=1000 μF, Lbus=1 μH. All caps are low ESR types.
(3)
Note that Maximum Power Derating curves indicate an average current at nominal input voltage. At higher
temperatures and/or lower airfow, the DC/DC converter will tolerate brie� �ull current outputs i� the total
RMS current over time does not exceed the Derating curve. All Derating curves are presented near sea level
altitude. Be aware o� reduced power dissipation with increasing altitude.
(4a) Mean Time Be�ore Failure is calculated using the Telcordia (Belcore) SR-332 Method 1, Case 3, ground fxed
conditions, Tpcboard=+25 °C, �ull output load, natural air convection.
(4b) Mean Time Be�ore Failure is calculated using the MIL-HDBK-217N2 method, ground benign, +25ºC., �ull
output load, natural convection.
(5)
The input and output are not isolated. They share a single COMMON power and signal return.
(6)
Short circuit shutdown begins when the output voltage degrades approximately 2% �rom the selected
setting. Output current limit and short circuit protection are non-latching. When the overcurrent �ault is
removed, the converter will immediately recover.
(7)
The output is not intended to sink appreciable reverse current.
(8)
“Hiccup” overcurrent operation repeatedly attempts to restart the converter with a brie�, �ull-current output.
I� the overcurrent condition still exists, the restart current will be removed and then tried again. This short
current pulse prevents overheating and damaging the converter.
(9)
Input Fusing: I� reverse polarity is accidentally applied to the input, to ensure reverse input protection,
always connect an external input �ast-blow �use in series with the +Vin input. Use approximately twice the
�ull input current rating with nominal input voltage.
(10) Regulation specifcations describe the deviation as the line input voltage or output load current is varied
�rom a nominal midpoint value to either extreme.
(11) Output noise may be �urther reduced by installing an external flter. Do not exceed the maximum output
capacitance. At zero output current and no external capacitor, the output may contain low �requency
components which exceed the ripple specifcation. The output may be operated indefnitely with no load.

Input Fusing
Certain applications and/or safety agencies may require fuses at the inputs of
power conversion components. Fuses should also be used when there is the
possibility of sustained input voltage reversal which is not current-limited. For
greatest safety, we recommend a fast blow fuse installed in the ungrounded
input supply line.
The installer must observe all relevant safety standards and regulations. For
safety agency approvals, install the converter in compliance with the end-user
safety standard.
Recommended Input Filtering
The user must assure that the input source has low AC impedance to provide
dynamic stability and that the input supply has little or no inductive content,
including long distributed wiring to a remote power supply. The converter will
operate with no additional external capacitance if these conditions are met.
For best performance, we recommend installing a low-ESR capacitor
immediately adjacent to the converter’s input terminals. The capacitor should
be a ceramic type such as the Murata GRM32 series or a polymer type. Initial
suggested capacitor values are 10 to 22 μF, rated at twice the expected maxi-
mum input voltage. Make sure that the input terminals do not go below the
undervoltage shutdown voltage at all times. More input bulk capacitance may
be added in parallel (either electrolytic or tantalum) if needed.
Recommended Output Filtering
The converter will achieve its rated output ripple and noise with no additional
external capacitor. However, the user may install more external output capaci-
tance to reduce the ripple even further or for improved dynamic response.
Again, use low-ESR ceramic (Murata GRM32 series) or polymer capacitors.
Initial values of 10 to 47 μF may be tried, either single or multiple capacitors in
parallel. Mount these close to the converter. Measure the output ripple under
your load conditions.
Use only as much capacitance as required to achieve your ripple and noise
objectives. Excessive capacitance can make step load recovery sluggish or
possibly introduce instability. Do not exceed the maximum rated output capaci-
tance listed in the specifications.
Input Ripple Current and Output Noise
All models in this converter series are tested and specified for input reflected
ripple current and output noise using designated external input/output compo-
nents, circuits and layout as shown in the following figures. The Cbus and Lbus
components simulate a typical DC voltage bus. Please note that the values of
Cin, Lbus and Cbus will vary according to the specific converter model.

All models regulate within specifcation and are stable under no load to Full
load conditions. Operation under no load might however slightly increase
output ripple and noise.
Temperature Derating Curves
The graphs in this data sheet illustrate typical operation under a variety oF
conditions. The Derating curves show the maximum continuous ambient air
temperature and decreasing maximum output current which is acceptable
under increasing Forced airflow measured in Linear feet per Minute (“L�M”).
Note that these are AVERAGE measurements. The converter will accept brieF
increases in current or reduced airow as long as the average is not exceeded.
Note that the temperatures are oF the ambient airfow, not the converter
itselF which is obviously running at higher temperature than the outside air.
Also note that “natural convection” is defned as very ?ow rates which are not
using Fan-Forced airFlow. Depending on the application, “natural convection” is
usually about 30-65 L�M but is not equal to still air (0 L�M).
Murata Power Solutions makes Characterization measurements in a closed
cycle wind tunnel with calibrated airFlow. We use both thermocouples and an
inFrared camera system to observe thermal perFormance. As a practical matter,
it is quite diFfcult to insert an anemometer to precisely measure airFlow in
most applications. Sometimes it is possible to estimate the eFFective airFlow iF
you thoroughly understand the enclosure geometry, entry/exit orifce areas and
the Fan ?owrate specifcations.
CAUTION:
IF you routinely or accidentally exceed these Derating guidelines,
the converter may have an unplanned Over Temperature shut down. Also, these
graphs are all collected at near Sea Level altitude. Be sure to reduce the derat-
ing For higher altitude.
Soldering Guidelines

Output Fusing
The converter is extensively protected against current, voltage and temperature
extremes. However your output application circuit may need additional protec-
tion. In the extremely unlikely event oF output circuit Failure, excessive voltage
could be applied to your circuit. Consider using an appropriate Fuse in series
with the output.
Output Current Limiting
Current limiting inception is defned as the point at which Full power Falls below
the rated tolerance. See the Per�ormance/�unctional Specifcations. Note par-
ticularly that the output current may brie?y rise above its rated value in normal
operation as long as the average output power is not exceeded. This enhances
reliability and continued operation oF your application. IF the output current is
too high, the converter will enter the short circuit condition.
Output Short Circuit Condition
When a converter is in current-limit mode, the output voltage will drop as the
output current demand increases. IF the output voltage drops too low (approxi-
mately 98% oF nominal output voltage For most models), the bias voltage may
shut down the PWM controller. �ollowing a time-out period, the PWM will
restart, causing the output voltage to begin rising to its appropriate value. IF the
short-circuit condition persists, another shutdown cycle will initiate. This rapid
on/oFF cycling is called “hiccup mode”. The hiccup cycling reduces the average
output current, thereby preventing excessive internal temperatures and/or
component damage.
The “hiccup” system diFFers From older latching short circuit systems
because you do not have to power down the converter to make it restart. The
system will automatically restore operation as soon as the short circuit condi-
tion is removed.
