5W DC-DC now includes DIP24 package

RECOM's REC5K series has been extended with -RW versions in an industry-standard DIP24 plastic package.

The cost-effective series operates over a 4:1 input range (9-36VDC) with a single, low-noise regulated 5V output, rated at 1A for input of 18-36VDC. At 12-18VDC input, 4A is available, and at 9-12VDC input, 3A is available. Operation is from -40C to 110C ambient, with derating at the higher temperatures.

Certifications include IEC/EN/UL 62368-1; the part has isolation rated at 4kV/1 second and 2kVAC/1 minute. The conducted EMC' Class B' level can be fulfilled with a simple external input filter. An operation to 5000m altitude is possible in a PD2 environment, and reliability is high at more than 1.7MHrs, according to MIL-HDBK-217F (Ground Benign).

The series is protected against input under-voltage and output short circuits and includes a remote on/off control to put the part into a standby state drawing, typically only 3mA.

The series is excellent for demanding applications such as industrial, where a high-performance, wide-input, and reliable part, rated to high temperatures, is needed but at an attractive price.
