Hi all,
Sorry if this seems a bit noddy but a few simple questions..
I have a unit that expects 12vdc at about 500mA.I want to place it in
a remote location but that location only has a 24vdc supply
available.
Can I simply connect it with no consequences?-does it matter if the
input is regulated or unregulated? If not, I understand that I may
need a DC to DC converter.The problem is , space and price are at a
premium, and I want to keep this as simple as possible .I guess the
converter is the "proper" option so I apoligise if this question
offends anyone or causes them to shake their head ;-)
Any advise gratefully received
Sandy
