In the case of forced air cooling, please have sufficient ventilation
to keep the temperature of point A in Fig.8.15 at 105
C
or below.
Please also make sure that the ambient temperature does not ex-
ceed 85
C
.

In the case of forced air cooling, please have sufficient ventilation
to keep the temperature of point B in Fig.8.16 at 95
C
or below.
Please also make sure that the ambient temperature does not ex-
ceed 85

¡
If a load connected to a converter is a pulse load, you can provide
a pulse current by connecting an electrolytic capacitor externally
to the output side.
¡
The average output current lav is expressed in the following for-
mula.
¡
Required electrolytic capacitor C can be obtained from the follow-
ing formula.
