ºC
with suitable de-rating and forced air
cooling
Remote ON/OFF (positive logic)
Overtemperature protection
0 A minimum load
Input undervoltage lockout
Overcurrent and short-circuit protection
Current Sharing
Available RoHS compliant
The SMT40C is a new high density open-
frame non-isolated converter series for
space sensitive applications. The
converter has a wide input range
(10.2 Vdc to 13.8 Vdc) and offers a wide
0.9 Vdc to 5 Vdc output voltage range
with a 40 A load. An external resistor
adjusts the output voltage from its preset
value of 0.9 V to any value up to the 5 V
maximum. The SMT40C has a typical
efficiency of 92%. The series offers
remote ON/OFF, overtemperature
protection and overcurrent protection as
standard.
Its current share facility supports parallel
operation of multiple SMT40C units and
the remote sense feature enables the
SMT40C compensate for voltage drops
between the converters output and the
load. With full international safety
approvals including EN60950 and
UL/cUL60950 the SMT40C reduces
compliance costs and time to market.
