TRACOPOWER Switching Regulator, Through Hole, 0.6/6 V dc Output Voltage, 3 A Output Current, 1 Outputs

Change up your power supply to suit your equipment with this switching regulator from Traco Power. It's a versatile option that takes an input voltage between 4.5 and 14V DC and turns it into a steady output between 0.6 and 6V DC. By converting 93% of its load, the component minimises energy wasted as heat, so you can skip the hassle of hooking up a heatsink. Tucking it onto a busy PCB is no issue, thanks to its compact SIP-5 format. As it's protected against short circuits, this converter steers clear of damage caused by electrical faults.
