Dimensions
Dimensions with Optional Heatsink
Notes: Add “-K” suffix for ordering, heatsink is affixed with thermally dissipative adhesive tape.
See derating graph for temperature performance. Heatsink material is anodized (black) aluminum, adds weight 11.2g to total
mass (42.2g). Thermal impedance of converter is: with heatsink 10℃/W and 12℃/W without heatsink.
