RSO-2415SZ/H3 - RECOM Power

RSO-2415SZ/H3 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 RSO-2415SZ/H3 is designed to withstand high vibrations. It is compliant with IEC 60068-2-6, which specifies the vibration test requirements for electrical components. However, it's recommended to consult with RECOM's application engineers to ensure the module is properly mounted and secured to withstand the specific vibration environment.
• What is the maximum capacitance load that can be connected to the output?
  The maximum capacitance load that can be connected to the output of the RSO-2415SZ/H3 is 47µF. Exceeding this value may cause instability or oscillation in the output voltage. It's recommended to consult with RECOM's application engineers to ensure the module is properly designed and tested for the specific application.
• Can I use this module in a high-altitude environment?
  Yes, the RSO-2415SZ/H3 is designed to operate up to 5000 meters above sea level. However, the module's power derating should be considered at high altitudes due to the lower air pressure and oxygen levels. It's recommended to consult with RECOM's application engineers to ensure the module is properly designed and tested for the specific high-altitude environment.
• What is the recommended input fuse rating for this module?
  The recommended input fuse rating for the RSO-2415SZ/H3 is 2A slow-blow or 1A fast-acting fuse. This ensures that the module is protected from input overcurrent and overvoltage conditions.
