CD-Series
DC/DC Converter 24V, 4A
6. HOLD-UP TIME
The input side of the DC/DC converter is equipped with a bulk capacitor which keeps the output voltage alive for a
certain period of time when the input voltage dips or is removed. The bulk capacitor can be discharged by loading the
DC/DC converter on the output side or through a load which is parallel to the input. There is no protection in the
DC/DC converter which prevents current from flowing back to the input terminals. If prevention is needed, an external
diode should be used.
Hold-up Time typ. 5.8ms input 12Vdc, output: 24Vdc, 2A, see Fig. 6-1
typ. 3.0ms input 12Vdc, output: 24Vdc, 4A, see Fig. 6-1
