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.
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 SPAN02A-12 to provide 12V power inside a compact industrial control board?

Yes, it is suited to compact control electronics that need a constant 12V output from a 9-18VDC input source. Its 2W rating and 21.8 × 9.2 × 11.1 mm size make it a fit for low-power industrial board-level use where space is limited.

Is the SPAN02A-12 suitable for embedded 12V monitoring or signal-conditioning circuits?

It can be a fit for embedded and monitoring circuits that require a regulated 12V rail and stay within the 2W output rating. The converter provides constant voltage output and accepts 9-18VDC input, which matches low-power control and sensing designs.

Can I use this 12V converter in automation equipment with a low-voltage DC supply?

Yes, if the automation circuit uses 9-18VDC input and needs a constant 12V output within 2W. This makes it appropriate for low-power automation subcircuits rather than higher-power loads.

Is the SPAN02A-12 a good option when panel space and weight are limited?

It is designed for very small spaces, with dimensions of 21.8 × 9.2 × 11.1 mm and a weight of 2.7g. That small package is useful in dense industrial or embedded assemblies where available board area is tight.

How does the SPAN02A-12 compare with other SPAN02A models?

Within the SPAN02A series, all listed models are 2W converters. The siblings are SPAN02A-03 at 3.3V and 500mA, SPAN02A-05 at 5V and 400mA, SPAN02A-12 at 12V and 167mA, and SPAN02A-15 at 15V and 134mA.

Can the SPAN02A-12 be used in harsh temperature environments?

It is rated for operation from -40°C to +90°C, so it covers a wide temperature range for industrial equipment. No IP rating is listed in the provided specs, so outdoor or washdown suitability is not established by this data alone.
