PULS UK's non-isolated step down DC DC converter converts input voltages to pre-settable output voltages

At present, linear regulators are commonly used to reduce DC supply voltages, but these operate by bleeding off excess power as heat and therefore waste a considerable amount of energy. The technology used in the PULS YD25.241 delivers much greater levels of efficiency and also dramatically reduces the heat generated within the host device. PULS UK's YD 25.241 is a non-isolated step down DC/DC converter that has the ability to convert input vo... [more]
