Power Supply Distributor for RDL Equipment

ST-PD5 Power Supply Distributor
** Decoupling Of Power
** Power Supply Filtering
** Remote Distributed Power
** Up To 5 Power Distribution Points
** Voltage Presence Indication
** Reverse Voltage Protection

This unit provides five individually de-coupled and diode isolated outputs from a single DC input. Typically it would be used to provide the supply voltage to five individual Stick-On modules from a single, possibly remote, source. One ST-PD5 should be used per power rail employed, ie: one to feed single-rail devices, two to feed dual-rail devices. Avoid mixed use! Input voltage 0-36VDC, output voltage typically 0.7VDC less than input.


APPLICATION: The ST-PD5 is the ideal choice where power distribution and decoupling is needed. It is suitable for powering up to 5 modules from a single power supply, providing a common low impedance source for each module.
In system design, various modules are frequently operated from a single power supply. In order to prevent the introduction of hum and noise, good engineering practice requires that the power wiring to each module originate at the power supply output. The ST-PD5 serves as the power source for each of 5 modules, permitting the actual power supply to be located elsewhere in the rack or system.
Five outputs are available on the ST-PD5. Power indication is provided by an LED, and reverse voltage protection is also provided. A single ST-PD5 can provide power to RDL's “Floating” modules. A separate ST-PD5 can provide power to “Ground-referenced” modules (Do not attempt to intermix “Floating” and “Ground-referenced” modules from a single ST-PD5).
Wherever power distribution is needed, the ST-PD5 is the ideal choice. Use the ST-PD5 combined with other RDL Rack-Up®, STICK-ON™, or TX™ series products as part of a complete audio/video system
