RoHS 10/10 conform (100% lead free)
High reflow temperature SMD package
Adjustable output voltage
Short circuit protection, thermal shutdown
Remote ON/OFF control
very low shutdown current
DC/DC Converter
R-78AA-1.0
The R-78AAxx-1.0SMD series are manufactured without lead and meet the requirements for
RoHS 10/10 as well as the increased reflow soldering temperatures associated with vapor phase
soldering, making these high efficiency switching regulators ideally suited to modern pick-and-
place mass production. The efficiency of up to 94% means that very little energy is wasted as heat.
The additional features of remote on/off control and adjustable output voltages will find many uses in the
battery-powered, industrial, medical and automotive markets.

Optional Diode Protection Circuit
Optional Protection 1:
Add a blocking diode to Vout if
current can flow backwards into
the output, as this can damage the
converter when it is powered down.
The diode can either be fitted
across the device if the source is
low impedance or fitted in series
with the output (recommended).
