Recom is offering a series of switching regulators for low power applications as a supplement to its Innoline non-isolated point-of-load converters. On the basis of its compact design with measurements similar to TO220 size and a pin-out identical to the well-known analog 78xx series linear regulators, it represents an alternative to the analog standard solution.
Efficiencies of up to 97% are claimed and consequently, there is no necessity for cooling (heatsinking). With specifications that otherwise correspond to those of conventional linear regulators, the developer is offered a finished part without having to worry about thermal problems. This switch-mode converter is as simple to use as the widespread analog 78xx linear regulator, requires no external components and avoids the problem of heat generation, since the internal losses are so low that they are not significant - unlike with a linear solution.
All the usual output voltages are offered as standard, but non-standard voltages and customer-specific solutions are also readily available. Input voltage ranges from 1,5 to 34 V; output voltages, 1,8, 2,5, 3,3, 5,0, 6,5, 9, 12 V; output current is 500 mA (1A type in preparation); measurements, 11,5 x 7,5 x 10,2 mm; SIP3 pin-out - same as TO220 linear regulator; operating temperature range, -40 to +70°C, full load, up to +85°C with a de-rating to 80% load.
