TINY DC-DC Power Module – Input 8-28V DC – Output 5V DC 1A

This tiny power module is an easy-to-use integrated power solution that combines a  3A DC/DC  converter chip with inbuilt power MOSFETs, an inductor, and passives into a 3-pin, through-hole package. The standard  TO-220  pin-out allows a much-improved replacement of linear regulators packaged in this industry-standard footprint. The circuit provides much higher efficiency and output current without the need for a heatsink. This is an easy replacement of the  LM7805  linear regulator with higher input voltage and output current than LM7805. Operating supply  8-28V DC, output  5V DC  at 1A. The project is built using the  TPS54302  chip from Texas instruments.
