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
Can I use the SCWN03B-05 for 5V PLC interface or controller electronics?
Yes, if the electronics need a constant 5V output and stay within 0.6A. This converter is rated 3W and is designed for an 18-36VDC input range, which suits low-power 5V control circuits.
Is the SCWN03B-05 a good option for 5V embedded processors or communication modules?
It fits 5V embedded loads that require regulated constant voltage and draw no more than 0.6A. The 3W rating and compact 31.8 × 20.3 × 10.2 mm size make it appropriate for small electronic assemblies.
Can this model power 5V industrial monitoring or data-acquisition boards?
It can be used for 5V monitoring or data-acquisition boards as long as the load stays within 0.6A and 3W. The source side must also match the specified 18-36VDC input range.
How does the SCWN03B-05 differ from the other SCWN03B versions?
The SCWN03B-05 provides 5V output at 0.6A with a 3W power rating. Its siblings are SCWN03B-03 at 3.3V and 0.6A, SCWN03B-12 at 12V and 0.25A, and SCWN03B-15 at 15V and 0.2A; all are 3W models.
Can the SCWN03B-05 be used in high-heat or low-temperature industrial locations?
The converter is specified for -40°C to +90°C operation, so it is rated for wide temperature conditions. No IP rating is included in the listed specs, so indoor or exposed outdoor suitability is not stated.
