Title: additional filtering on dps5015, how and why
Post by: lyma on August 05, 2018, 03:58:58 pm

i bought this converter (DPS5015) so that i could power a few laptops from a 24V battery.
People keep telling me that the output risks damaging those delicate equipment.
i am not familiar with details like peak rms noise and ripple, so i can't really interpret the measures available publicly, and i am looking for constructive and educated advices.
are there simple steps (soldering) that i can take to improve the output ?

I don't see why it would be a problem. If you're paranoid, add extra fusing and over-voltage protection to the output.

I don't know where you get this message, I have used DPS5015, it works well, and its VPP is about 100mv
so you can consider
