Traco Power DC-DC Converter, Short-Circuit Protection, Aluminium Housing - THL 15WI Series - THL 15-4811WI Use this DC-DC converter from Traco Power to make sure your electronic applications never run out of juice. It steps down an input voltage between 18 and 75V DC to a regulated output voltage of 5V DC that you can use to charge smartphones and laptops. An internal LC-type filter smooths out interference and ensures you get noiseless signal transmission. This component comes with short-circuit, over-voltage and overload protection, so you don't need to worry about faults causing damage. Through-hole mounting gives you a firm attachment to your PCB that won't shake loose in vibrating systems.
