What are the common faults and solutions of the DC-DC power supply module?

In the process of using, DC-DC power supply module will occur some common failures. The article will start from two parts, such as what are the common faults and solutions of DC-DC power module input and output, and what are the common faults and solutions of the DC-DC power module.

Here is the content list:

What are the common faults and solutions of DC-DC power module input and output?

What are the common failures and solutions of DC-DC power modules?

What are the common failures and solutions of DC-DC power supply module input and output?

1. Input voltage is too high

①Ensure that the output is not less than 10% of the rated load, if the actual circuit work will have a no-load phenomenon, connect a dummy load of 10% of the rated power at the output in parallel.

② Replace a reasonable range of input voltage, the presence of interference voltage to consider the input side and on the TVS tube or voltage regulator.

2. Output voltage is too low

①Adjust the voltage or switch to a higher power input power supply.

②Adjust the wiring, increase the cross-sectional area of the wire, or shorten the length of the wire to reduce the internal resistance.

③Replace the diode with a small on-state voltage drop.

④Reduce the value of the filter inductor or reduce the internal resistance of the inductor.

3. Output noise is too large

①Connect 0.1μF decoupling capacitor at the power input of noise-sensitive components of the main circuit (e.g. A/D, D/A, or MCU, etc.).

②Use a multi-output power supply module instead of multiple single-output modules to eliminate differential frequency interference.

③Use a remote grounding point to reduce the ground loop area.

What are the common failures and solutions of DC-DC power supply modules?

1. Poor power supply voltage resistance

①The voltage is gradually adjusted upward during the withstand voltage test.

②Select a power supply module with a high withstand voltage value.

③When welding the power supply module, choose the right temperature to avoid repeated welding and damage to the power supply module.

2. Power supply module start-up difficulties

①The external capacitor is too large, charging it for a longer time when the power supply module starts, it is difficult to start, you need to choose a suitable capacitive load.

② capacitive load is too large needs to be first in series with a suitable inductor.

③The output load is too heavy it will cause a longer start-up time, choose the appropriate load.

④Switch to a higher power input power supply.

3. Serious module heating

①Add heat sink when using a linear power supply.

②Increase the load of the power module to ensure no less than 10% of the rated load.

③Reduce the ambient temperature to maintain good heat dissipation.

4. Module power supply damage faster

①Ensure that the output is not less than 10% of the rated load if the actual circuit work will have a no-load phenomenon, on the output side and connected to a dummy load of 10% of the rated power.

②Select capacitors that meet the specifications of the power supply module technical manual.

③Select the appropriate input voltage.

5. Power supply module on the power quickly burned

①Check or add an anti-reverse connection protection circuit before wiring.

②Select the appropriate input voltage.

③Check the capacitor polarity before power on to make sure it is correct.

④Add short-circuit protection to the output of the power module.
