Test conditions and notes5
- 1.All parameters are specified at normal input(E:5Vdc, A:12Vdc, B:24Vdc, C:48Vdc), rated load, 25℃ 70% RH ambient.
- 2.Ripple & noise are measured at 20MHz by using a 12" twisted pair terminated with a 0.1μf & 47μf capacitor.
- 3.Line regulation is measured from low line to high line at rated load.
- 4.Load regulation is measured from 10% to 100% rated load for SCWN03, 25% to 100% rated load for DCWN03.
- 5.The final equipment must be re-confirm that it still meet EMC directives. For guidance on how to perform these EMC tests, please refer to “EMI testing of component power supplies.”(as available on http://www.meanwell.com)

FAQ
What is the DCWN03B-05 typically used for?
The Mean Well DCWN03B-05 is typically used for isolated low-power DC-DC conversion where an 18-36V DC source needs to provide a regulated ±5V dual output. With 3W rated power and up to 300mA per output, it is suited to compact embedded, telecom, and control applications using an 18-36V input rail.
Is the DCWN03B-05 a good fit when the source voltage is 18-36V and the load needs 5V?
Yes. The DCWN03B-05 is designed for exactly that conversion range, provided the load can use its ±5V dual output and stays within the converter's 3W rating and 300mA per output.
Can the DCWN03B-05 be used in compact isolated electronics?
Yes. The published features include a compact DIP24 package, 3KVDC I/O isolation, and no minimum load requirement, which support use in compact isolated power designs needing ±5V auxiliary rails.
What kind of operating environment is the DCWN03B-05 rated for?
The DCWN03B-05 is rated for -40°C to +90°C working temperature, which supports use in demanding electronic environments. It is still intended for protected equipment use rather than direct outdoor exposure.
How does the DCWN03B-05 compare with other 5V DCWN03 models?
The DCWN03B-05 provides 3W at ±5V from an 18-36V input range. Other ±5V DCWN03 variants shift the input window, such as A at 9-18V, C at 36-72V, and E at 4.5-9V. The best choice depends on the source voltage range available in your design.
