JCJ1024D15 - XP POWER

JCJ1024D15 Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

• What is the recommended PCB layout for optimal thermal performance?
  XP Power recommends a PCB layout with a large copper area connected to the tab of the JCJ1024D15 to dissipate heat efficiently. A minimum of 1 oz copper thickness is recommended, and the copper area should be at least 1 inch x 1 inch in size.
• Can I use the JCJ1024D15 in a high-vibration environment?
  Yes, the JCJ1024D15 is designed to withstand high-vibration environments. However, it's essential to ensure that the module is properly secured to the PCB and that the PCB is rigid enough to prevent flexing or resonance that could affect the module's performance.
• How do I ensure reliable start-up of the JCJ1024D15 in a low-input-voltage condition?
  To ensure reliable start-up, XP Power recommends using a soft-start circuit or a voltage supervisor to delay the turn-on of the JCJ1024D15 until the input voltage has reached a stable minimum level. This helps prevent damage to the module or malfunction due to low input voltage.
• What is the maximum cable length recommended for the output of the JCJ1024D15?
  XP Power recommends keeping the output cable length as short as possible to minimize voltage drops and electromagnetic interference (EMI). However, if a longer cable is necessary, the maximum recommended length is 12 inches (30 cm) for a 10 AWG wire or 6 inches (15 cm) for a 14 AWG wire.
• Can I parallel multiple JCJ1024D15 modules to increase the output power?
  Yes, multiple JCJ1024D15 modules can be paralleled to increase the output power. However, it's essential to ensure that the modules are identical and that the output voltages are matched to within 1% to prevent uneven current sharing and potential damage to the modules.
