Test conditions and notes5

1.All parameters NOT specially mentioned are measured at 230Vac input, rated load and 25℃ of ambient temperature.
2.Ripple & noise are measured at 20MHz of bandwidth by using a 12" twisted pair-wire terminated with a 0.1μF & 47μF parallel capacitor.
3.Length of set up time is measured at first cold start. Turning ON/OFF the power supply may lead to increase of the set up time.
4.When starting at a low temperature of -40℃, the output capacitor needs to be equipped with a solid capacitor to meet the load reduction curve requirements.
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

What is the Mean Well IOB-15-12B designed for?

The IOB-15-12B is an AC-DC on-board power module intended for systems that need a compact embedded power supply. It is built to be assembled on the main PCB and is suited to space-constrained commercial or industrial equipment where a compact internal power module is needed.

What are the key electrical specifications of the IOB-15-12B?

This model is rated for 15W output power and accepts a wide 85 to 305Vac input range, with 100 to 430Vdc input also listed. It features low no-load power consumption below 0.25W and ripple and noise specified at 150mV.

Is the IOB-15-12B suitable for demanding temperature conditions?

Yes. The specified operating temperature range is -40 to +85 degrees C, which makes it suitable for equipment exposed to both cold and elevated ambient conditions. Cooling is by free air convection, so it is intended for designs that rely on passive thermal management.

What protection features are included in the IOB-15-12B?

The module includes short circuit, overload, and over voltage protection. Short circuit protection is continuous with automatic recovery in hiccup mode, and overload protection recovers automatically after the fault condition is removed.

How compact is the Mean Well IOB-15-12B?

The listed dimensions are 44.5 x 25.5 x 15 mm, making it a compact choice for on-board power conversion. Its small footprint is one of the main differentiators for designs where PCB space is limited.

What compliance and insulation characteristics does this module offer?

The IOB-15-12B is listed as Safety Class II and approved to LVD IEC62368-1. It also specifies 3KVac withstand voltage from input to output, with leakage current below 5mA.
