Power Adapter MEAN WELL SCWN03E-05 3W 5V 0.6A RoHS

The MEAN WELL SCWN03E-05 is a compact DC-DC regulated single-output converter designed to deliver a stable 5 V output at up to 0.6 A from an input range of 4.5–9 V DC. The module provides 3000 VDC input-to-output isolation and is supplied in a DIP through-hole package. It offers a small footprint power solution for electronic designs that require a regulated low-voltage supply and basic isolation while meeting RoHS requirements.

Advantages

The SCWN03E-05 provides regulated 5 V output with up to 0.6 A current in a 3 W power envelope, combining compact size and through-hole mounting for easy board integration. High input-to-output isolation (3000 VDC) improves safety and protection in applications where galvanic separation is needed. RoHS compliance ensures the product meets environmental restrictions on hazardous substances.

Suitable for

• Embedded systems and microcontroller power supply
• Industrial control electronics requiring isolation
• Prototyping and repair of legacy through-hole designs

How to use

Mount the SCWN03E-05 into the PCB using its DIP through-hole pins and ensure correct orientation of input and output pins according to the board design. Provide an input voltage within the specified 4.5–9 V DC range and verify proper grounding. After connection, measure the output to confirm a steady 5 V supply before connecting sensitive loads. Observe manufacturer guidelines for spacing and creepage to maintain the rated isolation.

Recommendations

Use the module within its rated input and output limits, allow adequate ventilation or derating when operating near maximum load, and follow PCB layout and creepage distance best practices to preserve the 3000 VDC isolation integrity.
