RECOM Switching Regulator, Non-Conductive Case, ±2% Typical Output Accuracy - R-78HBxx Series - R-78HB6.5-0.5


Looking for an efficient, high-input voltage replacement for your 78xx-series linear regulator? Try this switching regulator from RECOM. Its industry-leading 8:1 input style is ultra-broad, so it's a practical choice for stepping down voltages anywhere between 9 and 72V DC to a stable regulated output of 6.5V DC. This makes it safe to use with your sensitive battery-powered components. Thanks to its efficiency between 84 and 91%, you can trust it wastes little energy as heat. This also means you won't need a heat sink to keep this device cool.

Features & Benefits


• Low ripple and noise figures indicate stable electric characteristics for optimal circuit performance
• Operating temperature range of -40°C to +85°C for safe use in harsh environments
• Mean time between failures of over 7 million operations at +25°C gives you long-lasting performance
• Relative humidity rating of up to 95% makes it safe to use in moist environments

Applications


• Automotive manufacturing
• Aerospace engineering
• Industrial battery-powered applications

Does this regulator come with short-circuit protection?
