Description
The KNW015A0F (Sixteenth-brick) series power modules are isolated dc-dc converters that operate over a wide
input voltage range of 36 to 75Vdc and provide a single precisely regulated output. The output is fully isolated from
the input, allowing versatile polarity configurations and grounding connections. The modules exhibit high efficiency,
typical efficiency of 92% for 3.3V/15A. These open frame modules are available either in surface-mount (-SR) or in
through-hole (TH) form.
