Recom REC3A DC-DC Converter, 5V dc/ 600mA Output, 18 → 36 V dc Input, 3W, Through Hole, +100°C Max Temp -40°C

The REC3A series from Recom is a cost efficient general purpose isolated DC-DC Converter with a built-in Class A EMC filter. The converter is designed to run from industry standard 24 V or 5 V unregulated supplies and is typically used to provide an isolated, short circuit protection. The converters are designed for industrial applications, can drive high capacitive loads and operate over the full -40°C to +85°C temperature range without derating.

• 2:1 Input voltage range
• Efficiency up to 81%
• Continuous short circuit protection
• EMI Class A without external components
• No minimum load required

For stable power delivery to your PCB-linked kit, use this DC-DC converter from RECOM. It steps down supply voltages ranging between 18 and 36V to give you a balanced 5V output needed by components like sensors. Thanks to the plastic housing, the device handles wear and impact without breaking a sweat, making it useful in harsh environments. The material is also non-conductive, so it doubles as an insulator to prevent electric shocks. Thanks to a mean time between failures of 2,429,000 hours, you can rest assured that this unit will stand the test of time.

• Broad operating temperature range between -40°C and +85°C for use in demanding conditions
• Power rating of 3W for use in light-duty applications
• Efficiency of 81% for increased productivity with minimal energy lost to heat
• Integrated class-A EMC filter removes ripple and interference for noiseless signal transmission

• Consumer electronics
• Factory automation
• Personal computers

This unit has a 2kV DC isolation voltage, which means it creates a barrier between the input and output to protect your appliances from sudden high-power surges.
