DMS-20PC Series: Low-Power Blue and Green LED Display Digital Voltmeters
|
- Available exclusively from Murata Power Solutions!
- Typical draw of +12mA from +5V supply (vs. 100mA for standard models)
- DISPLAY ENABLE function for extra low-power “standby" mode (<0.5mA)
- Component-like 12-pin DIP package ideal for board-mount applications
- Alternative to liquid crystal displays (LCD)

Power Solutions’ low-power, high brightness, three-and-a-half digit,
DMS-20PC digital panel voltmeters are now available with 'brilliant blue' or 'pure green' LED colors in addition to the current 'low-power red'.
The DMS-20PC series provides a sub-miniature, low-cost solution in
applications such as battery chargers, power amplifiers, rack-mounted
power and high-end consumer electronics.
Why would I specify?
- Power consumption is just 12 to 17mA for blue and green LED models, and 7 to 12mA for red LED versions (all @ +5VDC).
- This
low-power performance has been achieved without a reduction in LED
brightness - in fact, DMS-20PC LED panel meters are brighter than many
standard power counterparts.
- The DMS-20PC series offers
component-like plug-in convenience and is moisture and vibration proof
making it well suited to use in the harshest environments.
- Compact package helping to maximize use of space in customer applications.
ACA5-20RM
Series: True-rms AC ammeters interface directly with current
transformers to give dependable measurements in switching power supply
applications
- Six model family covering input range of 100A to 500A
- Direct interface to output of external 5A current transformer
- Choice of operating voltages (85 to 140VAC & 170 to 264VAC)
- Crest factors (peak current to rms current ratio) up to five

The
Datel ACA5-20RM series is a new family of functionally complete, high
current, true-rms responding AC ammeters designed to interface directly
with an external 5A output current transformer (CT). Covering input
ranges from 100A to 500A, the ACA5-20RM series is ideal for use in
electronic equipment that uses switching power supplies such as
inverters and generators, battery chargers, power distribution units
and AC/DC power supplies.
Why would I specify?
- True-rms
responding ammeters provide accurate and reliable performance in
switching power supply applications where input currents are typically
distorted and do not resemble the universally recognised sine-wave
shape.
- The ACA5-20RM family scales and displays the
output of 5A ‘donut’ style current transformers (CTs). The series
covers three ranges: 100A, 200A and 500A.
- A choice of 85 to 140VAC or 170 to 264VAC (at 47 to 63Hz) operating supply voltages is offered for each range.
- Maximum power consumption is less than 50mA .
- Crest
factors (the ratio of peak current to rms current) for the ACA5-20RM
series are as high as five and all models specify 2000V isolation
between the AC power source and the external 5A CT.
- The
functionally complete design uses a reliable single-board construction,
has a built-in low-burden toroid sensor and a bright red LED display
with 9.4mm (0.37in.) high characters.
- Where specific applications require, Murata Power Solutions can supply 100:5, 200:5 and 500:5 accessory CTs.
