R-78S Series

RECOM's initial eval board allows engineers to efficiently test the R-78S switching regulator. This regulator is capable of boosting AA batteries or external inputs to 3.3V, making it suitable for low-power IoT applications. It includes jumper headers for measuring current and voltage to estimate battery life in active and standby modes.

Introducing the R-78S Series: Another groundbreaking solution from RECOM, the world’s leading brand for low-power converter modules.

The R-78S is a short-circuit-protected 100mA boost switching regulator that will deliver a stable 3.3V output from an input voltage down to 0.65V, guaranteeing last-gasp performance from a 1.5V battery.

In standby mode, the converter draws only 7mA.

The evaluation board is powered by a single AA cell and allows users to measure input and output current and voltage to calculate the efficiency and determine battery life in both active and standby modes.

The R-78S is packed with features you won’t find anywhere else and is ideal for IoT. It’s time to switch to the best.
