5V Input, 1.5V Output
Input Characteristics
The APE12M05 power module has no internal fuse. An external fuse must always be
employed! To meet international safety
requirements, an input line fuse should be
used. Input wires and copper coil must be
capable of conducting a current of 1.5 times the
value of the fuse. If one of the input lines is connected to chassis ground, then the fuse must
be placed in the other input line.
A fuse with ratings of 10A is recommended for
APE12M05.
Output T rimming
Output can be externally trimmed by using
either method shown in figure 2.
Users can increase or decrease the output voltage set point of a module by connecting an
external resistor between the TRIM pin and
either the +Vout or GND pins. The trim resistor
should be positioned close to the module. If not
using the trim feature, leave the TRIM pin
open.
Trimming up or down by more than 10% of
the nominal output may cause the converter
to work improperly.

Remote Sensing
When the load can not be placed close to converter output pin, voltage drop will occur in distribution. This voltage drop can be compensated using sense lead. As shown in figure 1, connecting sense pin close to the load, when the
load changes, the module will automatically
adjust the real output to maintain the constant
voltage on the load.
If not using the remote sense pin, leave it open.

Output Over-Current Protection
APE12M05 features current limiting with a
threshold is between 13.2A and 16.8A. The
module can not tolerate short circuit conditions
in a long time. When the overcurrent condition
is removed, the converter will automatically
restart.

Safety Considerations
For safety-agency approval of the system in
which the power module is used, the power
module must be installed in compliance with the
spacing and separation requirements of the
end-use safety agency standard, i.e., UL1950,
CSA C22.2 No. 950-95, and VDE 0805
(EN60950, IEC950).
For the module's output to be considered meeting the requirements of safety extra-low voltage
(SELV), one of the following must be true:
1. All inputs are SELV and floating, with the output also floating.
2. All inputs are SELV and grounded, with the
output also grounded.
3. Any non-SELV input must be provided with
reinforced from any other hazardous voltages,
including the ac mains, and must have a SELV
reliability test performed on it in combination
with the converters. Inputs must meet SELV
requirements.
If the input meets extra-low voltage (ELV)
requirements, then the converter's output is
considered ELV.
The input to these units is to be provided with a
maximum 10A normal blow fuse in the
ungrounded lead.
parallel with the air-flow direction.
Soldering
APE12M05 is compatible with standard wave
soldering techniques. When wave soldering,
the converter pins should be preheated for 2030 seconds at 110 ° C, and wave soldered at
260 ° C for less than 10 seconds.
When hand soldering, the iron temperature
should be maintained at 425 ° Cand applied to
the converter pins for less than 5 seconds.
Longer exposure can cause internal damage to
the converter. Cleaning can be performed with
cleaning solvent IPA or with water.

(inches).
APE12M05 Mechanical
Considerations
Thermal Performance
APE12M05 can work properly under natural
convection in ambient temperature up to 25° C.
If air-flow is applied, it can work in a much wider
temperature range( See derating curves for reference ). In order to maintain efficient heat dissipation, the converters should be mounted
