Pololu 5V Step-Up/Step-Down Voltage Regulator S7V7F5

Der Pololu step-up/step-down Spannungsregler S7V7F5 ist ein Schaltregler (auch Schaltnetzteil (SMPS) oder DC-DC-Wandler bezeichnet), der eine Buck-Boost-Topologie verwendet. Die Eingangsspannung kann zwischen 2,7 V bis 11,8 V liegen und wird je nach Bedarf auf einen festen 5 V-Ausgang mit einem Wirkungsgrad von ber 90% verringert bzw. erhht.

— This flexibility in input voltage is especially well-suited for battery-powered applications in which the battery voltage begins above 5 V and drops below as the battery discharges. Without the typical restriction on the battery voltage staying above the required voltage throughout its life, new battery packs and form factors can be considered. For instance, a 4-cell battery holder, which might have a 6 V output with fresh alkalines but a 4.8 V nominal voltage with NiMH cells and a 4.0 V output with partially discharged cells, can now be used for a 5 V circuit. In another typical scenario, a disposable 9V battery powering a 5 V circuit can be discharged to under 3 V instead of cutting out at 6 V, as with typical linear or step-down regulators. In typical applications, this regulator can deliver about 1 A continuous when the input voltage is higher than 5 V (stepping down) and 500 mA continuous when the input is lower than 5 V (stepping up); please see the graphs at the bottom of this page for a more detailed characterization. The regulator has short-circuit protection, and thermal shutdown prevents damage from overheating; the board does not have reverse-voltage protection. For an adjustable-output version of this regulator, consider our step-up/step-down voltage regulator S7V8A. Features:

• input voltage: 2.7 V to 11.8 V
• fixed 5V output with +5/-2% accuracy
• typical continuous output current: 1 A when stepping down; 500 mA when stepping up (Actual continuous output current depends on input voltage. See Typical Efficiency and Output Current section below for details.)
• power-saving feature maintains high efficiency at low currents (quiescent current is less than 0.1 mA)
• integrated over-temperature and short-circuit protection
• small size: 0.35? 0.475? 0.1? (9 12 3 mm)
