ETI Systems recommends a 4-layer PCB with a solid ground plane and thermal vias to dissipate heat. A minimum of 2 oz copper thickness is recommended for the power traces. Additionally, a heat sink with a thermal interface material (TIM) is recommended to keep the junction temperature below 125°C.
ETI Systems recommends following the IPC-9592 standard for vibration testing. Additionally, ensure that the module is properly secured to the PCB using screws or adhesive, and that the PCB is rigid enough to withstand vibrations. It's also recommended to use a conformal coating to protect the module from environmental factors.
ETI Systems recommends derating the input voltage by 10% to ensure reliable operation. For example, if the maximum input voltage is 12V, the recommended derated voltage would be 10.8V.
ETI Systems recommends checking the input voltage, output load, and PCB layout for any issues. Ensure that the input voltage is within the recommended range, and that the output load is within the specified current rating. Also, check for any signs of overheating, and ensure that the module is properly cooled. If issues persist, contact ETI Systems support for further assistance.
ETI Systems recommends following the CISPR 22 and EN 55022 standards for EMI/EMC compliance. Ensure that the module is placed at least 10mm away from any metal objects, and that the PCB layout is designed to minimize radiation. Additionally, use a shielded enclosure and ensure that all cables are properly shielded and terminated.
