Figure 41. Output ripple voltage for various output voltages
with external 1x10 µF, 1x47 µF, 2x47 µF or 4x47 µF ceramic
capacitors at the output (12A load). Input voltage is 12V.

Safety Considerations

For safety agency approval the power module must be
installed in compliance with the spacing and separation
requirements of the end-use safety agency standards, i.e., UL
60950-1, CSA C22.2 No. 60950-1-03, and VDE 0850:2001-12
(EN60950-1) Licensed.

For the converter output to be considered meeting the
requirements of safety extra-low voltage (SELV), the input must

meet SELV requirements. The power module has extra-low
voltage (ELV) outputs when all inputs are ELV.
The input to these units is to be provided with a fast-acting
fuse with a maximum rating of 15A in the positive input lead
