Ripple and noise 150 mV maximum; measured with 20 MHz bandwidth and a 12-inch twisted pair terminated with 0.1 µF and 47 µF capacitors in parallel.
Initial set-point accuracy ±2%
Line regulation ±0.5%
Load regulation ±1.5%
Capacitive load 15000 µF maximum; this load limit is separate from the required circuit capacitors below.

AC input frequency 47–63 Hz
Efficiency 77% typical

No-load power consumption <0.25 W
Measurement conditions Unless stated otherwise, specifications are measured at 230 V AC input, rated load and 25°C ambient. Setup time is assessed at the first cold start; repeated power switching may increase it.

Overload protection Above 110% of rated output power; hiccup mode with automatic recovery after the fault is removed.
Overvoltage protection Output-voltage clamp; 9 V DC maximum.

Required external circuit components

Primary capacitor C1 and fuse Required C1: 33 µF/450 V across +V(cap) and −V(cap). The basic component-selection table specifies a required 1 A/300 V fuse; use the fuse type and rating of the selected complete EMC reference circuit.
Output filter C2, L1 and C3 Required C2: 470 µF/16 V polymer capacitor. Required L1: 2.2 µH, 22 mΩ maximum. Required C3: 220 µF/16 V. Follow the complete circuit on PDF page 11.
C4, CY1 and TVS C4: 0.1 µF/50 V. CY1: 2.2 nF/400 V AC, required. The TVS reference for this output is SMBJ7.0A.
Output-capacitor selection C2 and C3 are recommended to be high-frequency electrolytic capacitors with low ESR. For −40°C operation, the catalog recommends polymer capacitors with at least 20% voltage-rating margin. Required external components are system-design parts; their listing does not imply that they are included with the module.

EMC reference circuits

General AC reference circuit 85–305 V AC, −40 to +85°C; emissions Class A / immunity Class III reference. NTC: 10D-10; LDM: 1.2 mH, 0.4 A minimum / 4 Ω maximum; CX: 0.1 µF/310 V AC; fuse: 1 A/300 V slow-blow. Use the required basic circuit components above.
Indoor general AC reference circuit 85–305 V AC, −25 to +55°C; emissions Class B / immunity Class III reference. NTC: 10D-10; CY1/CY2: 2.2 nF/400 V AC; LCM: 10 mH, 0.4 A minimum / 600 mΩ maximum; LDM: 0.33 mH, 0.4 A minimum / 1 Ω maximum; CX: 0.22 µF/310 V AC; fuse: 1 A/300 V slow-blow.

Reference-circuit selection Use the complete selected circuit on PDF pages 12–14. Where R1 is specified, use a wirewound resistor rather than a chip or carbon-film type. For the household indoor-general circuit, use two 2.2 nF/400 V AC Y capacitors in series; the non-household arrangement may use one 2.2 nF/400 V AC CY capacitor. An outdoor application circuit does not provide a protective enclosure or an IP rating.

EMC performance and system verification

Conducted and radiated emissions BS EN/EN 55032 (CISPR 32): Class A without additional EMC components; Class B with the prescribed EMC components. The basic required circuit components are still needed. Select a complete reference circuit appropriate to the application and verify the finished equipment.

Conducted immunity and voltage dips BS EN/EN 61000-4-6: Level 2, 10 Vrms, performance criterion A. BS EN/EN 61000-4-11: 0% and 70% voltage-dip/interruption tests, performance criterion B.

Mechanical details and reliability

Dimensions Type B vertical construction: 44.5 × 25.5 × 15 mm (L × W × H); these overall body dimensions are marked maximum in the mechanical drawing.
Pin assignment 1 = AC/N; 3 = AC/L; 5 = +V(cap); 7 = −V(cap); 14 = −Vout; 16 = +Vout. The V(cap) pins connect the primary bulk capacitor; use the separate Vout pins for the load.
PCB footprint Use the top-view vertical footprint on PDF page 16. The drawing shows 0.64 mm square pins, Ø1 mm PCB holes, a 2.54 × 2.54 mm reference grid and a separate 6 ±1 mm lead extension. Follow the drawn pin locations rather than filling unused grid positions. The mechanical-specification section on PDF page 15 lists a general tolerance of ±0.5 mm and a pin-section tolerance of ±0.3 mm; the Type B drawing separately specifies the 6 ±1 mm lead extension.
Weight and packing reference 11.2 g, catalog packing reference per unit; not a measured net weight. Catalog packing: 49 pieces per tray and 637 pieces in 13 trays per carton. Packing quantities describe the manufacturer arrangement, not the quantity supplied by this listing.
MTBF >10,000 K hours typical, MIL-HDBK-217F at 25°C; this reliability estimate is not a service-life or warranty duration.
Applications and warranty For industrial electrical and mechanical equipment, factory automation, hand-held electronic devices, smart homes, industrial control and related compact embedded systems. The manufacturer catalog states a 3-year warranty; applicable manufacturer terms govern.
