RAC05-05SK - RECOM Power

RAC05-05SK Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

• What is the recommended PCB layout for optimal thermal performance?
  The recommended PCB layout for optimal thermal performance is to have a large copper area connected to the tab of the module, and to use multiple vias to dissipate heat to the other side of the PCB.
• How do I ensure the module is properly soldered to the PCB?
  To ensure proper soldering, use a soldering iron with a temperature of 250°C to 270°C, and apply a small amount of solder paste to the pads. Use a soldering technique that minimizes the time the iron is in contact with the module.
• What is the maximum allowable voltage deviation for the input voltage?
  The maximum allowable voltage deviation for the input voltage is ±10% of the nominal input voltage. Exceeding this deviation may affect the module's performance and reliability.
• Can I use the RAC05-05SK in a high-humidity environment?
  Yes, the RAC05-05SK is designed to operate in a humid environment, but it's recommended to take precautions to prevent moisture ingress, such as conformal coating or potting, and to follow the recommended storage and handling procedures.
• What is the derating curve for the module's output power versus ambient temperature?
  The derating curve for the module's output power versus ambient temperature can be obtained from RECOM Power Inc's application notes or by contacting their technical support team.
