WHY56ND TEMPERATURE CONTROLLER

QUICK CONNECT GUIDE, cont’d

Figure 3.  

Test Load Configuration

RECOMMENDED TEST LOAD

For  setup  and  configuration,  we  recommend  using  a  test 

load in place of the Thermoelectric Cooler (TEC) or resistive 

heater, connected directly to Pin 9 and Pin 13 on the 

controller, as shown in 

Figure 3

NOTE: 

Use a max of +5 V power supply with the test 

load shown. Values shown can simulate any load up to 

the WHY56ND maximum of 2.2 A. Always check the 

SOA 

Calculator

 before operating the WHY56ND controller.
