MES-Series DC-to-DC Converter Modules

MES1515M
DC/DC Converter
General Description
MES1515M is a DC/DC converter which can be used to
supply DC output from a commercial power supply (85 to
265 VAC).

Using these module enable simple, easy drive

of microcomputers, LEDs, and other electronic components

without using a transformer.
It also allows set PCBs to be kept compact and
lightweight, with extremely few attachments.

It can

accommodate the 100VAC~220VAC power supplies used as

household power supplies.

Application
Small multi-purpose power supply
Stand-by power supply aimed at low power consumption when loaded light
Insulated-type DC-DC converted

Features
Wide Input Range : AC 85V ~ 265V
A switching power supply can be made easily by adding simply external circuit
Permits reduction of power consumption at low loads(when in stand-by)
Able to deal with inputs of worldwide areas
Ultra-compact size attained by application of high-density mounting technique
Application of the unique molding technique features
Compliance with various safety regulations from the compact size
Humming is prevented when intermittent oscillation
Over Temperature Protection
Output Short Circuit Protection
Over Load Protection
