FAQ

Can I use the RSDW20F-05 to power 5V industrial controllers or USB-class embedded electronics from a 9-36V source?

This model provides a constant 5V output with a 20W power rating, so it fits many 5V industrial controllers and embedded electronics that stay within that 20W budget. The input range is 9-36Vdc, making it suitable where the available source falls within that span.

Is the RSDW20F-05 appropriate for 5V PLC accessory or automation interface circuits?

It can be a fit for low-power automation interface circuits that require a regulated 5V rail and no more than 20W. Its 4A output current rating sets the limit for the 5V loads it can supply.

Can this converter be used in railway-related electronics with a 5V bus requirement?

Yes, the datasheet lists compliance with the EN50155 railway standard, including EN61373 for shock and vibration and EN50121-3-2 for EMC, which is relevant for railway electronic systems. It also specifies 1.5KVDC input-to-output isolation and an operating temperature range of -40°C to +85°C.

Is the RSDW20F-05 suitable for embedded designs where board height is limited?

The converter comes in a 2" × 1" package and measures 50.8 × 25.4 × 10.2 mm, so it is only 10.2 mm high. That makes it a practical option for embedded designs that need a compact 5V, 20W conversion stage.

What are the differences between the RSDW20F-05 and the other RSDW20F versions?

The sibling models listed are RSDW20F-03 at 20W, 3.3V, 5.5A; RSDW20F-12 at 20W, 12V, 1.67A; and RSDW20F-15 at 20W, 15V, 1.33A. The RSDW20F-05 is the 5V member of the group at 20W with 4A output current.

Is the RSDW20F-05 rated for outdoor conditions?

The temperature range is -40°C to +85°C, so it is specified for broad temperature conditions. No IP rating is provided in the listed specs, so this product is not presented here as outdoor-rated or waterproof.
