Offered as part of the 5E series containing more than 20 models, the 5E01 25W and 30W dc/dc converters have continuous short circuit protection and do not require a heat sink or external cooling. Standard features include pi input filters, a wide 2:1 input voltage range, and isolated outputs. Input voltage ranges include 9 to 18 Vdc, 18 to 36 Vdc, and 36 to 72 Vdc. Units come with single, dual and triple, low-ripple, regulated outputs and no external components are required for additional filtering. A CMOS/TTL compatible remote on/off control allows the converter output to be turned on or off as necessary. Single output converters have an external output trim that lets the output voltage be set within a ±10% adjustable range. Efficiencies up to 84% are achieved with 200 kHz, and higher, switching frequencies. Depending on the number of outputs, price ranges from $39.98 to $45.16 each/100 pieces.
