XP Power recommends a PCB layout with a large copper area for heat dissipation, and a thermal management system with a heat sink and thermal interface material to keep the junction temperature below 125°C.
To ensure EMC, XP Power recommends following the layout and grounding guidelines in the datasheet, using a metal enclosure, and adding EMI filters and shielding as necessary to meet relevant EMC standards.
The derating curve for JCA0405S05 is typically provided in the datasheet or can be obtained from XP Power's application notes. It shows the reduction in output power as a function of ambient temperature, and engineers should use this curve to ensure the module operates within its specified ratings.
While the JCA0405S05 is designed to meet standard vibration and shock tests, XP Power recommends consulting their application notes or contacting their technical support for specific guidance on using the module in extreme environmental conditions.
XP Power recommends using low-ESR capacitors with a voltage rating that meets or exceeds the input and output voltage specifications. The recommended capacitor values and types can be found in the datasheet or application notes.
