Recom Switching Regulator, Through Hole, 9V dc Output Voltage 28V dc, 500 mA Output Current

RECOM Switching Regulator, 9V DC Output Voltage, 12 to 28V DC Input Voltage - R-78E Series - R-78E9.0-0.5

This switching regulator from RECOM adapts supply voltages to suit your PCB-mounted devices. Its step-down switching function works with input voltages between 12 and 28V DC, so it's compatible with many power sources. The device's precise line regulation of ±0.5% means it provides a stable 9V DC output voltage, so you GET a reliably smoothed electrical supply. For system safety, this regulator comes with integrated short-circuit protection. This feature means it resets itself automatically after electrical faults, so you can restart your machines quickly.
