RKE-2405S/H - RECOM Power

RKE-2405S/H 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.
• How do I ensure the module's reliability in high-temperature environments?
  To ensure reliability, RECOM recommends operating the module within the specified temperature range and providing adequate airflow. Additionally, derating the output power can help reduce the module's internal temperature.
• What is the recommended input capacitor type and value for optimal performance?
  RECOM recommends using a low-ESR ceramic capacitor with a value of 10-22 μF, 50-100 V rating, and an X7R or X5R dielectric. This helps to reduce input ripple and ensure stable operation.
• Can I use the RKE-2405S/H in a redundant configuration for high-reliability applications?
  Yes, the RKE-2405S/H can be used in a redundant configuration to achieve high reliability. However, it's essential to ensure that the modules are properly synchronized and that the system is designed to handle the increased power consumption.
• What is the recommended output capacitor type and value for optimal performance?
  RECOM recommends using a low-ESR ceramic capacitor with a value of 10-22 μF, 10-25 V rating, and an X7R or X5R dielectric. This helps to reduce output ripple and ensure stable operation.
