The user should install an input fuse to protect the device and equipment before using the device.
Operating instructions The MD1320N power IC device uses chopper circuitry and can be referred to as a chopper type DC to DC converter. The device requires an external choke and capacitor to be connected to it. The characteristics of these external parts and the way they are packaged and connected will greatly affect the performance of the device and its circuits.
Caution The MD1320N device has an output current drop function. In the event of power IC device malfunction resulting in excessive input current flow, smoke and flame may be emitted from the equipment. To prevent this, install a fuse or protective circuitry to the power IC device input line.
Remote ON/OFF Control The MD1320N is not provided with remote ON/OFF control functions. When necessary, be sure to add the recommended circuit shown below. The use of remote control (R/C) circuit turns the output ON and OFF without making or breaking the input.
