Power Adapter MEAN WELL SCWN06B-05 6W Input 18-36V Output 5V

The MEAN WELL SCWN06B-05 is a DC-DC regulated single-output converter designed for industrial and embedded applications. It accepts a wide input range of 18–36 VDC and provides a stable 5 VDC output at up to 1 A, delivering 6 W of power with 3000 VDC input-to-output isolation in a DIP through-hole package. The module is RoHS compliant and intended for use where compact, isolated 5 V rail conversion is required.

Advantages

The SCWN06B-05 offers galvanic isolation of 3000 VDC between input and output to improve safety and reduce interference. Its wide input range (18–36 VDC) makes it compatible with various DC systems and battery-backed supplies. The DIP through-hole package supports straightforward PCB mounting and mechanical stability in embedded designs. The converter provides regulated 5 V output at 1 A with a compact footprint and adherence to RoHS environmental requirements.

Suitable for

• Embedded systems and control boards that need an isolated 5 V supply
• Industrial electronics with 18–36 V DC buses
• Battery-powered equipment requiring step-down conversion

How to use

Mount the SCWN06B-05 module on a PCB using the DIP through-hole pins and ensure correct polarity for the input and output connections. Apply a DC input source within 18–36 V and verify that the load on the 5 V output does not exceed 1 A. Allow adequate PCB copper area or heatsinking as required by your application and follow standard practices for isolation spacing when integrating the module into circuits that require safety separation.

Recommendations

Operate the converter within the specified input range and output limits, provide proper ventilation or thermal management if operating near maximum load, and respect the 3000 VDC isolation rating by maintaining appropriate creepage and clearance distances on the PCB.
