Notes:
1. At full load, nominal input, 20 MHz bandwidth oscilloscope, input terminated with a 100 μF capacitor for 24 Vdc input models and a 4.7 μF capacitor for 48 Vdc input
models. Output terminated with 1 μF and 10 μF low ESR capacitors.
2. All specifications are measured at Ta=25°C, nominal input voltage, and rated output load unless otherwise specified. All models are tested and specified with a 100 μF
capacitor for 24 Vdc input models and a 4.7 μF capacitor for 48 Vdc input models on the input, and with 1 μF and 10 μF low ESR capacitors on the output.
