In order to fill the gap created by TI's recent announcement to discontinue their Power Trends switching regulators (PT78ST100, 78SR100, etc.), RECOM are introducing a 1:1 compatible SMD product line. The R-78T series will help customers avoid costly re-designs who are still using Power Trends switching regulators.

Based on the R-78-family, the low profile "Open Frame" modules feature high efficiency of up to 95% and wide input voltage range of 7V to 42V. These features make the modules suitable for portable or battery operated applications requiring a space-saving device. Due to the regulators' high efficiency, fans or heat sinks are not needed and they can be reliably operated at temperatures between -40°C and +85°C without derating.

The series delivers optional regulated 3.3V/1A, 5V/1A or 12V/1A in continuous operation, but can also handle peak currents up to 1.5A for 10s. The modules measure 23 x 27.2 x 10mm or 23 x 29.4 x 8mm and are pin-compatible with other 78 series SMD switching regulators and SMD TO-220 linear regulators.

The devices are supplied for fully automatic assembly optional in "tape & reel" or "tray" and are designed for the reflow soldering process. The warranty period is 3 years.
