The Astron N2412-12 DC to DC Voltage Converter is designed to provide efficient and reliable step-down voltage conversion for electrical systems operating at higher DC voltages. It accepts an input voltage range of 22 to 32 VDC and delivers a highly regulated 13.8 VDC output with up to 12 amps of continuous current.
Utilizing high-frequency pulse modulation at 20 kHz, the N2412-12 maintains stable output voltage across varying load conditions while achieving high conversion efficiency. The converter is designed without electrical isolation between the input and output negative terminals, allowing straightforward integration into negative-ground electrical systems.
Comprehensive protection features are built in, including over-voltage and short-circuit protection, input-side transient and over-voltage suppression, and reverse polarity protection. These safeguards help protect both the converter and connected equipment during normal operation and electrical fault conditions.
The N2412-12 is commonly used to supply regulated 13.8 VDC power to FM transceivers and other avionics or electronic equipment requiring a stable 12-volt power source when operating from a 24-volt battery system.
