What it represents
A DC/DC converter changes a documented DC input into another DC output. Isolation, regulation and polarity depend on the selected model and must not be inferred from the conversion label.
How to read it
- Check whether input and output commons are connected internally.
- The preview is an original explanation of this function. Match the actual drawing convention to its legend and the selected equipment documentation.
Information to show or reference
- State input/output ratings
- Identify isolation specification
- Show input/output polarity
A distinction that matters
A DC/DC conversion function does not automatically provide galvanic isolation.
