Recom Switching Regulator, Through Hole, 6.5V dc Output Voltage, 8 → 32V dc Input Voltage, 500mA Output Current,

The Recom R-78xx series are highly efficient, non-isolated switching regulators. They offer a high-quality product low cost in production quantity. Their low-profile design enables them to be used in numerous applications from distribution supply systems, controllers and sensors, robotics, medical and telecommunications.

The convertor has a high-voltage input range and there is no need for heat sinks, due to little energy being wasted. It has a wide input range with short circuit protection and no external components are needed to work efficiently.

• Low cost, high quality
• Very low profile
• Pin compatible with LM78xx linear regulators
• High efficiency, non-isolated, no need for heatsinks
• Requires no external components
• Fully Protected for short circuit, overload and over temperature
• Low ripple and noise
• Compact size, ensuring space saving

Convert input voltages to outputs that suit your devices with this RECOM switching regulator. It switches inputs between 8 and 32V DC to a 6.5V DC output, giving you a stable power supply. With its 3.25W power rating, the unit provides energy-efficient voltage conversion that suits portable power sources like batteries. Integrated short-circuit, overload and overheat protection means you can be sure there's minimal risk of damage to your system from sudden faults.

• ±0.4% line regulation rating provides a constant output voltage for a reliable power supply
• Dimensions of 11.5 (L) x 10.2 (D) x 7.55mm (W) for easy installation in compact systems
• Converts up to 88% of input voltage for low heat production
• 30mV maximum ripple voltage for minimal disruption from electrical noise

• Mobile phones
• Portable lighting systems
• Wind turbines
• Telecommunications

Ripple refers to the amount of current variation that remains in your power supply after conversion. High ripple levels waste energy and can cause your equipment to work inefficiently or not at all.
