Output and DC input

Rated output 24 V DC; current range 0–3.13 A; rated output power 75 W.
Input voltage 48 V DC nominal; 36–75 V DC operating range (2:1).
Input surge 100 V DC for 100 ms maximum.
Undervoltage lockout Power-up threshold 34 V DC; power-down threshold 32.5 V DC.
Efficiency 89% typical.
Input current Full load: 1800 mA. No load: 50 mA.
Input filter Pi-network.
Ripple and noise 240 mVp-p maximum; measured at 20 MHz bandwidth with a 12-inch twisted-pair wire terminated by a 1 µF ceramic capacitor and a 10 µF tantalum capacitor across the output.
Output accuracy and regulation Voltage accuracy ±1.0% with the required sense connections; line regulation ±0.2%; load regulation ±0.2%.
Switching frequency 300 kHz typical.
External capacitive load 2000 µF maximum.
Measurement conditions Unless otherwise stated, specifications are measured at 48 V DC input, rated load and 25°C ambient temperature.

Control, sensing and adjustment

Remote ON/OFF Standard positive logic: connect R.C. pin 2 to −Vin pin 4 (closed switch, <0.8 V DC) to turn the output OFF; an open circuit turns it ON.
Control reference R.C. is referenced to −Vin. In the positive-logic example, a high signal at the external NPN transistor base pulls R.C. low and disables the output; this is not a high-voltage command applied directly to R.C.
Remote sense Connect +Vout pin 9 to +R.S. pin 8 and −Vout pin 5 to −R.S. pin 6 as required by the specification note.
Output trim range External adjustment ±10% typical of nominal output voltage.
Trim-up connection and calculation Connect the external resistor between Trim pin 7 and −Vout pin 5. With ΔV = desired voltage − nominal voltage, Rtrim-up = (R1 − R2 × ΔV) / ΔV in kΩ; R1 = 42.215 kΩ and R2 = 16.923 kΩ for this 24 V model.
Trim-down connection and calculation Connect the external resistor between Trim pin 7 and +Vout pin 9. With ΔV = nominal voltage − desired voltage, Rtrim-down = (R1 − R2 × ΔV) / ΔV in kΩ; R1 = 430 kΩ and R2 = 130 kΩ for this 24 V model.

Protection and operating conditions

Output overcurrent 110–150% of rated output power; current limiting with automatic recovery after the fault is removed.
Output overvoltage 115–140% of rated output voltage, typical; output voltage clamp by a TVS diode.
Short-circuit protection Continuous short circuit is permitted by the protection specification; automatic recovery after removal of the fault.
Overtemperature protection Thermal shutdown at 100°C ±5°C case temperature.
Case temperature and cooling Typical operating case-temperature range −40 to +100°C. Under any operating condition, case temperature must not exceed 100°C; provide the required cooling or derating. This is a case-temperature limit, not an unrestricted ambient-temperature or full-load rating.
Thermal calculation Use Pd = Pi − Po = Po × (1 − η) / η, with efficiency η as a fraction; Tc = Ta + Pd × Rca. The graph plots dissipated power Pd against ambient temperature and airflow without a heat sink, not rated output power.
Thermal resistance without heat sink Typical case-to-ambient thermal resistance without a heat sink: 7.12 °C/W at natural convection, 20 ft/min (0.1 m/s); 6.21 at 100 ft/min (0.5 m/s); 5.17 at 200 (1.0); 4.29 at 300 (1.5); 3.64 at 400 (2.0); 2.96 at 500 (2.5); 2.53 at 600 (3.0); 2.37 at 700 (3.5); 2.19 at 800 ft/min (4.0 m/s). All resistance values are in °C/W.
Humidity and storage Operating humidity 0–95% RH maximum. Storage −55 to +105°C, 0–95% RH.
Temperature coefficient ±0.03%/°C over 0–60°C.

Isolation, approvals and EMC

Isolation voltage Input–output, input–case and output–case: 1500 V DC each.
Isolation resistance Input–output: 100 MΩ at 500 V DC, 25°C and 70% RH.
Safety standards UL60950-1 and EAC TP TC 020/2011 approved. EAC TP TC 004 approval applies to the 48 V nominal-input models.
Series approval marks The series features list UL / CUL / EAC / CE / UKCA; use the applicable model and standard conditions stated above.
EMC emissions BS EN/EN55032 (CISPR32) Class A with external components; EAC TP TC 020. The conducted-emission circuit requires the components listed below.
EMC immunity BS EN/EN61000-4-2, -3, -4, -5, -6 and -8; BS EN/EN55024, light-industry level, criteria A; EAC TP TC 020.
EMC component values C1 and C2: 33 µF / 100 V, ESR <0.46 Ω each; C3: 2200 pF; L1: 8.3 µH.
EMC circuit connections C1 and C2 connect across the input on opposite sides of L1. L1 is in series with the positive input line. C3 connects the module-side −Vin node to Case. Refer to the applicable circuit drawing for layout and connections; select component ratings suitable for the application.

Complete-system EMC verification Verify EMC with the converter installed in the final equipment and connected to a representative load. Wiring, assembly and the application affect the result. Follow the model's specified EMC conditions and any required external components; the linked EMI testing guidance does not certify the finished equipment.
