RCD-24-0.60/PL/B - RECOM Power

RCD-24-0.60/PL/B Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

• What is the recommended PCB layout for optimal thermal performance?
  RECOM recommends a PCB layout with a large copper area connected to the module's thermal pad to ensure good heat dissipation. A minimum of 2 oz copper thickness is recommended, and the copper area should be connected to a heat sink or a metal plate for further heat dissipation.
• Can I use this module in a high-vibration environment?
  Yes, the RCD-24-0.60/PL/B is designed to withstand high vibrations. However, it's essential to ensure that the module is properly secured to the PCB and that the PCB is rigid enough to withstand the vibrations. Additionally, the module's connections should be securely soldered to prevent any damage.
• What is the maximum allowed capacitance for the output filter?
  The maximum allowed capacitance for the output filter is 10uF. Exceeding this value may affect the module's stability and performance. It's recommended to use a capacitor with a low ESR (Equivalent Series Resistance) to minimize the risk of oscillation.
• Can I use this module in a redundant configuration?
  Yes, the RCD-24-0.60/PL/B can be used in a redundant configuration to achieve higher reliability and availability. However, it's essential to ensure that the modules are properly synchronized and that the system is designed to handle the redundancy correctly.
• What is the recommended input fuse rating?
  The recommended input fuse rating is 1A slow-blow fuse. This will provide adequate protection against input overcurrent and ensure that the module is not damaged in case of an input fault.
