GENERAL DESCRIPTION
ELECTRICAL SPECIFICATIONS
All specifications valid at nominal input voltage, full load and +25°C after warm-up time unless otherwise stated.
Our AM15E-C series is a family of cost effective 15Wsingle out-
put DC-DC converters. These converters are shielded on all
six sides and encapsulated with a nickel-coated copper
with a non-conductive base and dimensions of
50.8x25.4x10.5mm. The high performance features of
our AM15E-C components include short circuit protec-
tion with current limit auto recovery, tight line regulation
and a high efficiency operation coefficient up to 83%.
Fifteen models operate from an input voltage range of 12,
24 & 48VDC producing output voltages of 3,3, 5, 12, 15
& 24VDC. The normal operation is specified over the
full operating temperature range of -25°C to +71°C with
no derating required. Cooling is done by free air convec-
tion.
