TRACOPOWER TEC 2 DC-DC Converter, 5V dc/ 400mA Output, 18 → 36 V dc Input, 2W, Through Hole, +95°C Max Temp

Keep the balance of power in your electric circuit using this DC-DC converter from Traco Power. It accepts a wide input voltage range from 18 to 36V DC and steps it down to a safe output level of 5V DC. With built-in resistance to shock, vibration and thermal shock, this piece of gear packs a triple threat against faulty conditions in your system. You can mount it in a pinch by soldering its pins through the holes on your board.

• Isolation voltage of 1.6kV DC between input and output sources for electrical safety
• Mean time between failures of 6,620,000 hours for lasting operation
• Minimal output ripple and noise of 75mVp-p for clear signal delivery
• Integrated short-circuit protection with continuous automatic recovery to minimise downtime

• Audio-visual devices
• Aerospace engineering
• Telecommunications networks
• Data centres

A maximum start-up time of 20ms means you can be sure this converter gets to work quickly when it receives a command.

With an efficiency rating of 83%, this converter releases minimal energy waste, eliminating the need for a heatsink on your board.
