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.
To ensure reliability in high-temperature environments, RECOM recommends following the derating curves provided in the datasheet, using a suitable heat sink, and ensuring good airflow around the module. Additionally, the module should be operated within the specified temperature range and with a suitable input voltage to prevent overheating.
RECOM recommends using a low-ESR ceramic capacitor with a value of 10-22uF, X7R or X5R dielectric, and a voltage rating of 50V or higher. The capacitor should be placed as close as possible to the module's input pins to minimize noise and ripple.
Yes, the RKZE-1212S can be used in a redundant or parallel configuration, but RECOM recommends following specific guidelines to ensure proper operation and to prevent damage to the modules. Please consult RECOM's application notes for more information.
The typical start-up time for the RKZE-1212S is around 10-20ms, but this can vary depending on the input voltage, output load, and other factors. RECOM recommends consulting the datasheet and application notes for more information on start-up time and sequencing.
