Working Principle

The working principle of a DC-DC converter can be easily explained using the intuitive diagram below.

The THM 10-0512 DC-DC converter functions by converting the input voltage into current, which is then converted into a different, usually higher, output voltage. This process is controlled by two pairs of switches which are used to adjust the duty cycle of the converter. The duty cycle determines the output voltage of the converter. When the duty cycle is high, the converter will output a higher voltage, and when it is low, the converter will output a lower voltage.

The THM 10-0512 DC-DC converter also features a wide input voltage range of 3.0 to 40V and an input current up to 5A. This makes it ideal for many applications, such as those with input voltage variations.
