Description
The R-78xx-Series high efficiency switching regulators are ideally suited to replace 78xx linear
regultors and are pin compatible. The efficiency of up to 97% means that very little energy is wasted as
heat so there is no need for any heat sinks with their additional space and mounting costs. Low ripple and
noise figures and short circuit, overload and over-temperature protection round off the specifications of
this versatile converter series. This R-78xx-0.5 is fully certified to EN55032 EMC Standard and for
IEC/EN-60950-1 + AM2 Safety.
