RECOM Switching Regulator, 5V DC Output Voltage, 500mA Output Current - R-78-0.5 Series - R-785.0-0.5


Adjust your power supply to meet your system's needs with this switching regulator from RECOM. With a wide input voltage range of 6.5V to 32V, it makes many common battery units compatible with low-voltage devices for simple power distribution. By converting up to 94% of its input voltage, the converter minimises power loss to maintain high energy efficiency. The unit ensures its output voltage stays to ±0.4% of its 5V rating to provide a stable and reliable energy supply.

Features & Benefits


• Energy-efficient design minimises heat build-up, removing the need to install a heat sink
• Compact dimensions of 11.5 (length) x 7.55 (width) x 10.2mm (depth) for PCB setups with limited space
• Through-hole mounting solders directly onto your board to minimise the risk of disruption from movement

Applications


• Medical equipment
• Power supply units
• Lighting systems
• Automation industry

What's the difference between switching regulators and linear regulators?


Switching regulators convert voltages more efficiently than linear alternatives. You don't need to install extra capacitors to use switching regulators as you would to use linear regulators.
