The QBVE060A0S10R4 series operate from an input voltage range of 45 to 56Vdc and provide up to 60.0A output current at output voltages of 10.4V in an industry standard, DOSA dc compliant quarter brick. The converter incorporates digital control, synchronous rectification technology, a fully regulated control topology, and innovative packaging techniques to achieve efficiency exceeding 97% at 10.4V output. This leads to lower power dissipations such that for many applications a heat sink is not required. Standard features include on/off control, output overcurrent and over voltage protection, over temperature protection, input under and over voltage lockout. The output is fully isolated from the input, allowing versatile polarity configurations and grounding connections. Built-in filtering for both input and output minimizes the need for external filtering. * Trademark of General Electric Company UL is a registered trademark of Underwriters Laboratories, Inc.

These are absolute stress ratings only, functional operation of the device is not implied at these or any other conditions in excess of those given in the operations sections of the Data Sheet. Exposure to absolute maximum ratings for extended periods can adversely affect device reliability.

An input line fuse must always be used. This power module can be used in a wide variety of applications, ranging from simple standalone operation to an integrated part of sophisticated power architecture. To preserve maximum flexibility, internal fusing is not included, however, to achieve maximum safety and system protection, always use an input line fuse. The safety agencies require a fast-acting fuse with a maximum rating of 30A in the ungrounded input lead of the power supply (see Safety Considerations section). Based on the information provided in this Data Sheet on inrush energy and maximum dc input current, the same type of fuse with a lower rating can be used. Refer to the fuse manufacturers Data Sheet for further information. April 29, 2021 2012 General Electric Company. All rights reserved. Page 2
