I have a little circuit that runs off the 12 volt power supply in a vehicle. Part of the circuit needs a bipolar supply, and I was planning to use one of the cute little DC / DC converters to output maybe 5 watts off + and - 15 volt DC. The converter I have selected has a PI filter on the input, accepts a wide input range (8-18 Volts), and is regulated. My question is whether alternator hash will be a problem, Will I need a choke and capacitor on the front end of this gizmo like we used to put on car radios and the like? Or will the converter do its job OK with raw vehicle DC?
