Input Parameters * **Voltage Range:** It features a **2:1 wide input range**. For the "24" model, it handles fluctuations between 18V and 36V comfortably. * **Filter:** Includes an internal Pi-network filter to minimize reflected ripple current and electromagnetic interference (EMI). #### 2. Output Parameters * **Dual Output:** The "D" in the part number signifies a **Dual Output** (±9V). This is ideal for powering operational amplifiers or circuits requiring balanced positive and negative rails. * **Regulation:** It is a **regulated** converter, meaning the output voltage remains stable despite changes in input voltage or load conditions (Load regulation ±1%, Line regulation ±0.5%). * **Protection:** Features continuous short-circuit protection with auto-recovery. #### 3. Isolation and Safety * **Galvanic Isolation:** Provides 1500VDC isolation between the input and output stages, protecting sensitive downstream components from high-voltage spikes on the input side. * **Operating Temperature:** Designed to operate in harsh environments, typically ranging from **-40°C to +85°C**. --- ### Pinout Configuration (DIP24) | Pin Number | Function | Description | | :--- | :--- | :--- | | 2, 3 | -V Input | Negative Input Voltage | | 9 | Common | Common Ground for Outputs | | 11 | -V Output | Negative 9V Output | | 14 | +V Output | Positive 9V Output | | 16 | Common | Common Ground for Outputs | | 22, 23 | +V Input | Positive Input Voltage | --- ### Applications * **Industrial Control Systems:** Powering sensors and actuators. * **Instrumentation:** Providing clean power for precision measurement tools. * **Telecommunications:** Used in distributed power architectures. * **Data Acquisition:** Ideal for analog-to-digital conversion circuits requiring bipolar supply rails.
