9- Application Notes
9-1 Short Circuit Protection
The short circuit protection device protects the modules against short circuits of any duration and restores the
module to normal operation when the short circuit is removed.
9-2 Custom Output
Any of the bi output converters can be configured to produce output of 10V (+/-5 output models), 24V (+/-12V
output models), or 30V (+/-15V output models) by connecting the load across the output (+) and the output
(-) with either output grounded, and leaving the common pin floating.
9-3 Safety
The MGDI-10 series is recognized according to UL1950, EN60950 and EN41003.
The isolation voltage is an operational insulation in accordance with EN60950 and the DC/DC module shall be
installed in an end-use equipement.
9-4 Ambient versus Case Temperature
The MGDI-10 series operating case temperature at full load must not exceed 95°C. The maximum ambient temperature
admissible for the DC/DC converter corresponding to the maximum operating case temperature depends on the
ambient airflow, the unit mounting/orientation, the cooling features and the power dissipated. Thermal calculation
shows two areas of operation :
• a normal operation area in a free natural ambient convection (grey area in the following graph),
• an area with cooling features (air flow or heatsink ) ensuring a maximum case temperature below 95°C at
full load (white area in the following graph).
