The SMT40C Series is a new high density open frame non-isolated converter for space-
sensitive applications. Each model has a wide input range of 10.2 Vdc to 13.8 Vdc and offers
a wide 0.9 Vdc to 5.0 Vdc output voltage range with a 40 A load. An external resistor adjusts
the output voltage from its pre-set value of 0.9 V to any value up to 5 V. Typical efficiencies are
92% at full load conditions. The SMT40C series offers remote ON/OFF and overcurrent
protection as standard. With full international safety approval including EN60950 and
UL/cUL60950, the SMT40C reduces compliance costs and time to market.
