DCP020515D: Parallel

Ray Vincent Aranzaso

Part Number: DCP020515D

Hi,

Good Day.

Customer is using this device, input 05 dual outputs +/- 15V. They want to connect them in parallel, however in the datasheet, it is stated that it is possible for single-output voltage devices.

Is there any method to connect the dual output ones in parallel? Please advise. Thank you very much.

Best Regards,

Hi Ray,

I can't think of any reason why this configuration won't work.

Thanks,

Andrew

Hi Andrew,

Good Day. Please see below the response of our customer to your reply. Thank you very much.

The dual output device has three output signal, +15 -15 and ground outputs.

The diagram you sent me has the positive and negative outputs in parallel. What about the grounds?. I am not sure if it is possible to connect both grounds using a zero impedance. Is it possible to connect them without producing a high circulating current?

Best Regards,

Ray Vincent

Hi Ray,

In theory it should work. You just have to connect the center-tap of the transformer together on both devices. There's nothing in the datasheet that screams it's not possible.

Just be sure to verify it works on the bench.

Thanks,

Andrew
