RECOM Power Inc recommends a PCB layout with a large copper area for heat dissipation, and a minimum of 2oz copper thickness. The datasheet provides a recommended layout diagram, but it's essential to consult with RECOM's application notes and FAE team for specific guidance.
To ensure reliable start-up and operation with a high-capacitance output filter, RECOM recommends using a soft-start circuit or a ramp-up circuit to limit the inrush current. Additionally, the output voltage should be monitored to prevent overshoot or voltage dips during start-up.
The maximum allowed capacitance on the output of the REC15E-4805SZ is not explicitly stated in the datasheet. However, RECOM recommends limiting the output capacitance to 10-20 times the output capacitance of the converter (Cout = 10-20 x 22uF) to ensure stable operation and prevent oscillations.
Yes, the REC15E-4805SZ can be used in a redundant or parallel configuration, but it's essential to consult with RECOM's application notes and FAE team for specific guidance on synchronization, current sharing, and fault tolerance.
RECOM recommends using a fuse with a rating of 2-3 times the maximum input current (Iin_max) and a fast-acting type (e.g., SMD fuse or ceramic fuse) to protect the converter from input overcurrent and short-circuit faults.
