Output filtering capacitors C1, C3 is electrolytic capacitors, It is recommended to use high frequency and low impedance electrolytic capacitors. For capacitance and current of capacitor please refer to manufacture’s datasheet. Voltage derating of apacitor should be 80% or above. C2, C4 is ceramic capacitors , it is used to filter high frequency noise. TVS is a recommended component to protect post-circuits (when converter fails). 2. MOV is required for VSK-S3 models. Model: 471KD05, it is used to protect the device under surge. 3. It is recommended to connect FUSE, the parameter is 0.5A/250V slow blow. External input NTC is recommended to use D -14 or 10Ω/2W wire-round resistor. 4. If EMC performance is required, recommended to add “EMC filter” at the input end(see figure 2) C6:X capacitor, recommended parameter 0.1uF/275V; C7,C8:Y capacitor, recommended parameter 220pF/275V; NF: common model choke, recommended inductance is about 10mH-30mH. 5. Terminals 22 and 26 are internal rectification and filtering terminals. To protect the models further, it is recommended to connect an electrolytic capacitor C3 (it is recommended to be 4.7uF/400V). If operation voltage of the module is between 160~264VAC, C3 can be removed. 1. All specifications measured at Ta=25°C, humidity <75%, rated input voltage, and rated output load, unless otherwise specified.

About Novapart
Novapart is a B2B electronic component broker specialising in stock shortages and cost reduction. We source hard-to-find parts and identify compliant alternatives across a catalogue of 410,000+ components from 500+ manufacturers.
Learn more →Stock Shortage Specialist
When a component is unavailable, discontinued or has an unacceptable lead time, we tap into our network of vetted European and Asian distributors to source what you need — without compromising on quality or traceability.
Request a quote →Compliant Alternatives
We identify pin-to-pin, electrically equivalent substitutes that meet the same certifications (RoHS, AEC-Q100, REACH) as your original specification — validated against datasheets, not just part numbers. Often at a lower cost.
