Description
The KSTW015A0F series power modules are isolated DOSA compliant 1/16
th
brick dc-dc converters that operate over a wide input
voltage range of 36 V
dc
-75V
dc
and provide a single precisely regulated output voltage at 3.3V
dc
. The output is fully isolated from
the input, allowing versatile polarity configurations and grounding connections. The modules exhibit high efficiency of 90.5%
typical at full load. Built-in filtering for both input and output minimizes the need for external filtering. The module is fully self-
protected with output over-current and over-voltage, over-temperature and input under voltage shutdown control. Optional
features include negative or positive on/off logic and SMT connections
