EZ-PD3
Power Supply Distributor
TYPICAL APPLICATION
The EZ-PD3 is the ideal choice where power distribution from a current-limited switching power supply is needed. It is suitable
for powering up to three EZ modules from a single power supply.
Upon application of power, the EZ-PD3 ramps the voltage up, charging any load capacitance as quickly as possible, then switching
full voltage to the load. A front-panel power switch is provided.
The front-panel blue LED remains illuminated when the outputs are active.
