Description
The EVW010A0B, Eighth-brick low-height power module is an isolated dc-dc converters that can deliver up to 10A of output
current and provide a precisely regulated output voltage of 12V over a wide range of input voltages (VIN = 36 - 75Vdc). The
modules achieve typical full load efficiency of 93.5%. The open frame modules construction, available in both surface-mount
and through-hole packaging, enable designers to develop cost and space efficient solutions. Standard features include remote
On/Off, remote sense, output voltage adjustment, overvoltage, overcurrent and overtemperature protection.

Absolute Maximum Ratings
Stresses in excess of the absolute maximum ratings can cause permanent damage to the device. These are absolute stress
ratings only, functional operation of the device is not implied at these or any other conditions in excess of those given in the
operations sections of the data sheet. Exposure to absolute maximum ratings for extended periods can adversely affect the
device reliability.

CAUTION: This power module is not internally fused. An input line fuse must always be used.
This power module can be used in a wide variety of applications, ranging from simple standalone operation to an integrated
part of sophisticated power architectures. To preserve maximum flexibility, internal fusing is not included, however, to achieve
maximum safety and system protection, always use an input line fuse. The safety agencies require a time-delay fuse with a
maximum rating of 8 A (see Safety Considerations section). Based on the information provided in this data sheet on inrush
energy and maximum dc input current, the same type of fuse with a lower rating can be used. Refer to the fuse manufacturer’s
data sheet for further information.
