The 80999173 (R-78AA3.3-0.5SMD) is a high-efficiency, non-isolated buck switching regulator in a surface-mount package suitable for automated production. It operates over a wide input voltage range of 4.75V to 32V to deliver a nominal 3.3V output current of 0.5A. The output voltage is adjustable from 3.0V to 5.5V, and the converter achieves an efficiency of up to 91%, reducing the need for external heatsinking. The device also incorporates remote on/off control, continuous short circuit protection, and thermal shutdown. Its high reflow temperature tolerance makes it ideal for battery-powered, industrial, medical, and automotive applications.
