K8004- ic is getting warm

Hello and greetings to Velleman

I have velleman PWM’s long Time in Use, all works great!!

Now, i construct my second PWM for a new project.(Motor control)

I use one Trafo with a secondary Voltage 30V.

The open circuit Voltage is 36 V.

Can i use them, because the IC1 (SG3525)is getting more warmly as i think.

I think the IC is to warm and i decide to unplug the Voltage from the PWM.

The case of voltage is going down to 34,3 Voltage of the PWM operation voltage.

It’s bad to get a 30 V Trafo with a Voltage Control in it.

What can i do?

Edit:I made on test.I use my secondary PWM with a DC Motor 24V and i take an operating Voltage on the DC in board with exactly 24V.After a while, i put my finger on the IC, and it`s warm as the first IC of the other PWM.

So i think, the temperature is normal?

Sorry, i can’t measure the temperature.- I think it’s a little bit more warmly like “finger warm”.

The warmest place on the IC is the left Side on the surface.

The Motor current is 1 AMPERE

Thank you

Steffen

Should not be a problem.
