RECOM Switching Regulator, DC-DC Converter Type, 220μF Maximum Capacitive Load - R-78E-0.5 Series - R-78E5.0-0.5


When you need to pull back the throttle on your power supply, try this switching regulator from RECOM. It steps down an input voltage between 7 and 28V DC to a low-key 5V DC output. Thanks to a cool 92% efficiency rating, you can be sure it's not losing excess energy to heat. This means it doesn't need a heatsink, helping this small wonder keep to compact dimensions of just 8.5 (D) x 8.5 (W) x 11.6mm (L). Plus, at a super-light 1.9g, it fits comfortably on even the most crowded PCB without throwing its weight around.

Features & Benefits


• Short-circuit protection keeps your components safe in the event of a fault
• Wide operating temperature range of -40°C to +85°C for compatibility with demanding settings
• Through-hole mounting method makes installation quick and easy
• 2.5W power rating for use with low-power systems
• Vibration resistant to 2G so it can handle heavy-industrial environments with ease

Applications


• Robotics systems
• Electrical engineering
• Gaming equipment

How long will this product last?
