Pololu 12V, 2.8A Step-Down Voltage Regulator D30V30F12

The 12V, 2.8A Step-Down Voltage Regulator D30V30F12 is a compact, highly efficient synchronous switching step-down (buck) regulator. It can handle an input voltage of up to 45V, and effectively lowers it to 12V. Despite its small size of 17.78mm x 20.32mm, this regulator can deliver maximum continuous output currents ranging from 1.5A to 3.5A, depending on the input voltage. One of the key features of this regulator is its optional enable input, which can put the device into a low-power state. This results in a minimal current draw of between 10µA to 20µA per volt on VIN. This makes it an energy-efficient choice for a variety of applications.Another unique feature of this regulator is its reverse voltage protection. This safety feature helps prevent damage to the regulator and any connected devices in the event of a reverse voltage incident. Furthermore, the regulator also includes a power-good output. This feature provides an indication when the regulator is not able to maintain the output voltage adequately.The 12V, 2.8A Step-Down Voltage Regulator D30V30F12 is designed with pins spaced 2.54mm apart. This makes it compatible with standard solderless breadboards and perfboards, providing flexibility and ease of use. Whether you're working on a hobby project or a professional application, this regulator offers a reliable and efficient solution for voltage regulation needs.
