Re: P.S question

Hi,

No problem; you probably have plenty of the natural, 4-legged kind
there anyway. The output voltage tracks the input by the same
percentage. If your input were to go to 115% of nominal, then your
34VDC would turn into 39VDC. You may want to consider a regulator if
that is a problem.
