High-Efficiency 20W DC-DC Power Module
Engineered for performance and reliability, the Mean Well SKA20A-05 is a professional-grade 20W single-output DC-DC converter designed to deliver a stable 5V DC output from a wide 9-18V DC input range. Housed in a compact, six-sided shielded metal case measuring just 2" x 1", this converter is an ideal solution for space-constrained applications in telecommunications, industrial control, and distributed power architectures. Its high efficiency of up to 88% ensures minimal power loss and reduced heat generation, allowing for reliable operation in a wide range of temperatures from -40°C to +85°C without forced air cooling.
Robust Protection and Advanced Features
The SKA20A-05 is equipped with a comprehensive set of protections, including short circuit, overload, and over-voltage, ensuring the safety and longevity of both the converter and the connected load. The hiccup mode for short circuits and auto-recovery for overload conditions provide resilient, dependable performance with minimal intervention. Advanced features such as 1500VDC I/O isolation, a built-in EMI filter, and remote ON/OFF control offer enhanced safety and system integration flexibility. Every unit undergoes a 100% full load burn-in test, guaranteeing the high reliability that Mean Well is known for.
