DC/DC Converter
R-78-1.0
Description
The R-78xx-1.0 series switching regulators are ideally suited to replace 1 Amp 78xx linear regulators
and are pin compatible. Efficiencies of up to 94% mean that very little energy is wasted as heat so there
is no need for any heat sinks with their additional space and mounting costs.
