AC/DC Adapters Employ Mini-USB Output Connectors

Meeting the Energy Star Level IV efficiency standard, the DCH3 series wall-mount ac/dc power adapters rely on mini-USB connectors for output delivery. They accept a universal 100 to 254 Vac input and generate a regulated 5V output with a power rating of 3W. Groomed for charging portable consumer electronics, the series includes three models with different input plugs, each of which specifies a ground leakage current of 10 µA maximum while providing a constant-voltage, constant-current output. Other shared features include over-voltage and short-circuit protection, EMI filtering, extensive safety approvals, and an ambient operating temperature range from 0°C to +45°C. Pricing starts at $3.99 each in OEM quantities. ASTEC POWER, Carlsbad, CA. (760) 930-4600.
