Overview

IRM-20-3.3 is the 3.3V output model of this series: rated current 4.5A, rated power 14.85W, typical efficiency 76%.

IRM-20 is a 20W miniature (52.4*27.2*24mm) AC-DC module-type power supply, ready to be soldered onto the PCB boards of various kinds of electronic instruments or industrial automation equipments. This product allows the universal input voltage range of 85~ 305 Vac. The 94V-0 flame retardant plastic case and potted with silicone enhance the heat dissipation and meet the anti-vibration demand up to 2G; moreover, it provides the fundamental resistance to dust and moisture. With the high efficiency up to 85% and the extremely low no-load power consumption below 0.1W, IRM-20 series fulfills the worldwide regulation for the low power consumption requirement for electronics. The entire series is a Class Ⅱ design (no FG pin), incorporating the built-in EMI filtering components, enabling the compliance with BS EN/EN55032 Class B; the supreme EMC features keep the end electronic units from electromagnetic interference.

Test conditions and notes5
  1. 1. All parameters NOT specially mentioned are measured at 230Vac input, rated load and 25℃ of ambient temperature.
  2. 2. Ripple & noise are measured at 20MHz of bandwidth by using a 12" twisted pair-wire terminated with a 0.1μF & 47μF parallel capacitor.
  3. 3. Tolerance : includes set up tolerance, line regulation and load regulation.
  4. 4. The ambient temperature derating of 3.5℃/1000m with fanless models and of 5℃/1000m with fan models for operating altitude higher than 2000m(6500ft).
  5. 5. The power supply is considered as an independent unit ,but the final equipment still need to re-confirm that the whole system complies with the EMC directives. For guidance on how to perform these EMC tests, please refer to “EMI testing of component power supplies.” (as available on https://www.meanwell.com//Upload/PDF/EMI_statement_en.pdf )

FAQ

Can I use the IRM-20-3.3 to power a 3.3V embedded controller board from AC mains?

Yes, this model is designed for constant-voltage 3.3V output up to 4.5A, with 14.85W total power. That makes it suitable for embedded controller boards, logic backplanes, or communication modules that run on 3.3V DC. The 85-305VAC input supports direct AC-powered equipment designs.

Is the IRM-20-3.3 a good fit for industrial communication or gateway hardware that runs on 3.3V?

It can be a good fit when the 3.3V electronics require no more than 4.5A. The output rating suits low-voltage digital hardware such as gateways, protocol modules, or board-level communications assemblies powered from AC mains. Its encapsulated PCB-mount format is intended for integration inside equipment.

Can this power supply support a 3.3V SBC or processor module in an automation system?

Yes, if the processor module and attached 3.3V loads stay within 14.85W and 4.5A. The supply delivers a fixed 3.3V output, which is appropriate for logic-level computing and embedded processing hardware. The compact 52.4 x 27.2 x 24.0 mm footprint also helps in dense controller layouts.

Would the IRM-20-3.3 work for low-voltage digital I/O and logic circuits?

It is intended for 3.3V constant-voltage loads, so it can serve digital I/O, logic, and control circuits that remain within 4.5A. Compared with higher-voltage models in the same family, this version is specifically aimed at low-voltage electronics rather than 12V, 15V, or 24V control rails. Buyers should match both the required voltage and total current draw to the 3.3V, 4.5A rating.

Is the IRM-20-3.3 suitable for outdoor electronic assemblies?

The specified operating temperature range is -30C to +85C, with output derating at higher temperatures per the derating curve, which supports a broad range of internal operating conditions. However, no IP rating is listed in the provided specs, so it should not be assumed to be suitable for direct outdoor exposure. It is better used inside a protected enclosure or equipment housing.
