The PT-PC021 is a DC-DC step-down switching regulator based on the MC34063. The small size and 500mA output makes it ideal for small projects.
Specifications:
Size: .93"x .93"
Input Voltage: 5v to 24v
Output Voltage: 2.5v to 12v
Max Output Current: 500mA continuous, 1.5A Peak
Efficiency: 84% @ 500mA
Voltage In should be at least 2V greater than Voltage Out. The PT-PC021 comes with a free carrier board with screw terminals for power in and power out.
