Wavelength Electronics’ WTCP5V5A series of component type TEC temperature controllers delivers all the advantages of pulse width modulated (PWM) control in a PCB-mounted package. The WTCP series is compact and efficient, and usually does not require any additional heatsinking.

The WTCP5V5A series of TEC temperature controllers is perfectly suited for applications requiring high efficiency, low power dissipation, and high stability. Portable, airborne, and other space-constrained temperature control applications are ideal places to use these drivers. The WTCP5V5A series can operate from a single 5 V power supply, or the WTCP5V5A and load can be driven from separate power supplies when even lower output current noise is required.

Few passive external components are required to operate the WTCP-5V5A series. The available WTCPEVAL evaluation circuit board includes everything needed to quickly configure the WTCP5V5A for a wide range of applications and load conditions. The on-board feedback loop parameter adjustment switches simplify tuning and dramatically reduce your development time. An OEM module board is also available and can be preloaded at the factory with components fine-tuned for your application.

Separate heating- and cooling current limits protect the load from operational anomalies. External passive components fine-tune the operating range for maximum control sensitivity and accuracy. Versatile interface signals simplify integration of the WTCP5V5A into a wide range of applications. An easy-to-use component selection calculator simplifies system design and configuration.

Built-in safety features like current and voltage limit make the WTCP5V5A series robust to real-world operating conditions.
