5.3 Derating
¡
The AME series is comprised multiple combination output. Both
the maximum output of each module and total maximum output
have to be within the specs.
¡
Derating curve for ambient temperature
The derating curve for the ambient temperature (inlet temperature
for cooling) of output modules is shown in Fig.5.5.
The specifications of the ripple and noise in the shaded area be-
low are different.
