## Electrical Characteristics
· Input Voltage: Up to 40V
· Output Voltage (Fixed): 5.1V, 12V, 15V, 24V
· Output Voltage (Programmable): 5.1V to 24V (GS-R400V/2)
· Output Ripple: 25mVpp to 100mVpp
· Switching Frequency: 100 kHz
· Thermal Resistance (Case to Ambient): 8°C/W
## Absolute Maximum Ratings
