Power adapter/inverter mean well DETN02M-05 — Input 10.8–13.2 V, Output 5 V, 2 W, RoHS, depth 15.2 mm

Mean Well DETN02M-05 is a compact PCB-mount DC–DC converter designed for embedded and low-power electronic applications. The module accepts an input voltage range of 10.8–13.2 V DC and provides dual ±5 V outputs rated at ±0.2 A, with a total power capability of approximately 2 W. Packaged as an SMD device with a board depth of 15.2 mm, the unit is RoHS compliant and supplied in bulk for production use.

Advantages

The DETN02M-05 offers a small footprint and SMD packaging suitable for automated mounting, stable dual ±5 V outputs for bipolar supply needs, and integrated short-circuit protection that reacts within 0.5 seconds. Its RoHS compliance and compact depth of 15.2 mm make it appropriate for space-constrained circuit designs and batch manufacturing.

Suitable for

• Embedded systems and single-board computers requiring bipolar supplies
• Low-power analog and mixed-signal circuits (operational amplifiers, sensors)
• Industrial control modules and instrumentation with limited PCB space
• Volume production and assembly lines (bulk supply packaging)

How to use

Mount the DETN02M-05 as an SMD component on the PCB following the manufacturer’s recommended footprint and soldering profile. Provide a stable input supply within 10.8–13.2 V DC and observe correct polarity. Route the ±5 V outputs to the target circuitry, taking into account the ±0.2 A current limit for each rail. If a short-circuit occurs, the unit’s protection engages within approximately 0.5 seconds; remove the fault and allow the module to recover per the manufacturer’s guidelines.

Recommendations

Use appropriate input decoupling and output filtering close to the converter pins to minimize noise. Keep thermal dissipation in mind—design the PCB copper areas and airflow to stay within safe operating temperatures. For batch installations, verify soldering parameters for SMD assembly and perform incoming inspection on bulk shipments.
