Option V: ACFAIL Signal (VME)
Formula for the external input capacitor:
2 • P • (t + 0.3 ms) • 100
Available only for models with V = 5.1 V.
o
This option defines an undervoltage monitoring circuit for the
input and main output voltage. It generates an ACFAIL signal
(V signal) which conforms to the VME standard.
