RECOM DC-DC Converter, 800μF Maximum Capacitive Load, 90 to 97% Efficiency - RPM-3.0 Series - RPM5.0-3.0-CT
For safe and steady power distribution to your PCB-connected components, count on this DC-DC converter from RECOM. It first rids the input voltage signal of noise and ripple, then steps it down from between 3 and 17V DC to a stable 5V DC output. This gives low-voltage components like sensors a supply they can use safely. The unit's compact 3.75mm depth means it takes up just a little space on your circuit board. As it comes in a durable metal case, you can rest assured it can take care of itself in harsh industrial settings.
