Description
**Core Function:**
This component regulates electrical current within a system, ensuring consistent voltage output across connected circuitry. Designed for integration in systems requiring precise power stabilization to protect sensitive components and maintain operational reliability.
**Technical Specifications:**
- **Electrical Characteristics:** Operates within input voltage parameters of 10–24V DC. Output stabilized at 5V ±0.1%. Maximum load capacity is 3A under optimal thermal conditions.
- **Thermal Management:** Passive heat dissipation via integrated aluminum heatsink structure; no active cooling provided, suitable for ambient air temperatures below 75°C during prolonged use.
- **Connection Interface:** Standard screw terminal design supports wire gauges up to AWG16 for input/output connections, ensuring secure electrical contact during installation.
**Physical Dimensions & Material Properties:**
Metal housing constructed from anodized aluminum offers durability and electromagnetic shielding—dimensions are compact at 45mm x 30mm x 12mm. Mounting holes allow attachment using M3 screws; weight is approximately 42g.
**Technical Notes / Limitations:**
- Suitable only for low-voltage DC applications — not compatible with AC systems or high-frequency loads.
- Heat dissipation efficiency drops significantly above ambient temperatures of ~80°C, requiring external cooling solutions in such environments.
- Internal components rated to handle brief current spikes up to +20% above max threshold (3A), but sustained overcurrent will lead to failure or degradation.
- Not waterproof — must be housed appropriately if exposed to moisture or harsh conditions outdoors or in industrial settings.
