Power adapter MEAN WELL MDS01N-15 1 W 15 V 21.6 - 26.4 V

The MEAN WELL MDS01N-15 is a compact DC-DC medical converter designed for PCB mounting in a SIP through-hole package. It accepts an input voltage range of 21.6–26.4 VDC and delivers a stable single output of 15 VDC at 0.067 A (1 W). Engineered for medical and other safety-conscious applications, this module features reinforced isolation (2xMOPP) and RoHS compliance to meet environmental and safety requirements while keeping a minimal PCB footprint.

Advantages

The adapter provides a precise low-power 15 V output with low noise and stable regulation suited for sensitive electronics. Its SIP through-hole form factor simplifies PCB assembly and mechanical retention. Reinforced isolation (2xMOPP) increases patient and operator safety in medical equipment. RoHS compliance ensures the product meets environmental restrictions on hazardous substances. The small size and 1 W rating make it suitable where space and heat dissipation are limited.

Suitable for

• Powering low-power medical electronics and monitoring modules
• Embedded control circuits and sensors requiring 15 V rail
• PCB-mounted converter applications with constrained board space
• Battery-operated systems where DC-DC conversion from ~24 V is needed

Key specifications

• Input voltage range: 21.6–26.4 V DC
• Output voltage: 15 V DC
• Output current: 0.067 A (1 W output power)
• Package type: SIP through-hole for PCB mounting
• Isolation: double MOPP (2xMOPP) suitable for medical applications
• Compliance: RoHS

How to use

Mount the module on the PCB using the SIP through-hole leads and ensure proper soldering for mechanical and electrical reliability. Supply the converter with a DC source within the specified input range (21.6–26.4 V). Verify correct polarity and wiring before power-up. After installation, measure the output to confirm a stable 15 V DC under the expected load. Allow for adequate spacing around the device for airflow and to meet creepage and clearance requirements relevant to reinforced isolation.

Recommendations

Use this DC-DC converter in applications where small size, low power and medical-grade isolation are required. Follow applicable medical and safety standards for mounting orientation, creepage/clearance distances, and system-level testing. Avoid exposure to excessive ambient temperatures and ensure the input supply remains within the specified range to maintain reliable operation.
