The Emerson/Artesyn/Astec LPT42 is a 40W open-frame AC-DC power supply engineered for ITE and medical applications requiring compact, reliable multi-output regulation. Operating from universal input (85–264 VAC or 120–300 VDC, 47–440 Hz), it delivers triple outputs: +5V @ 4A, +12V @ 2A, and –12V @ 0.5A under convection cooling; output capacity increases to 55W with 30 CFM forced air cooling. The unit occupies just 5.00″ × 3.00″ × 1.14″ (less than 1U height) and weighs approximately 8 oz, fitting space-constrained chassis designs.
