FAQ

Can I use the RSDW20F-12 for 12V industrial control or automation equipment from a 9-36V source?

Yes, it is a constant-voltage 12V DC-DC converter rated at 20W, which suits low-power industrial control and automation electronics that need a regulated 12V rail. The 9-36Vdc input range supports applications where the source is within that range.

Is the RSDW20F-12 suitable for 12V embedded systems in transportation or mobile equipment?

The listed EN50155 railway compliance (including EN61373 for shock and vibration and EN50121-3-2 for EMC) makes it relevant for transport and mobile electronic systems where that standard applies. It also combines 1.5KVDC input-to-output isolation with an operating temperature range of -40°C to +85°C.

Can this converter power low-power 12V monitoring or communications hardware?

It can be used for 12V monitoring or communications electronics as long as the load stays within its 20W rating. The 1.67A output current defines its fit more for low-power 12V electronics than for heavier 12V loads.

Is the RSDW20F-12 a good option when space is limited inside an enclosure?

Its 50.8 × 25.4 × 10.2 mm dimensions in a 2" × 1" package support use in compact enclosures. At 0.035 kg, it is also a lightweight option for dense electronic assemblies.

How does the RSDW20F-12 compare with other RSDW20F output voltages?

The listed siblings are RSDW20F-03 at 20W, 3.3V, 5.5A; RSDW20F-05 at 20W, 5V, 4A; and RSDW20F-15 at 20W, 15V, 1.33A. The RSDW20F-12 version provides 12V output at 20W with 1.67A output current.

Can the RSDW20F-12 be used outdoors or in severe temperatures?

The operating temperature range is -40°C to +85°C, so the temperature spec supports severe hot and cold conditions. No IP rating is listed in the provided specifications, so it is not described here as an outdoor or waterproof converter.
