This switching step-down (or buck) voltage regulator takes an
input voltage of up to 23 V and reduces it to 5 V with a maximum
output current of 3 A. It has 22-AWG input leads with stripped
and tinned terminations and a 3-pin “JR”-style servo connector
on the output lead. This type of buck (step-down) voltage
regulator is commonly used in the RC hobby industry, where it is
called a “Battery Elimination Circuit” (BEC). It can convert a
higher voltage, such as from a motor battery, to a lower 5 V
level for powering devices like RC receivers and servos,
removing the need for a separate battery. This switching
regulator takes an input voltage between 5 and 23 V and reduces
it to 5 V, providing up to 3 A of output current. However, the
maximum achievable output current of the regulator depends on
many factors, including the ambient temperature, air flow, heat
sinking, and the input voltage. Note that the ferrite bead shown
in the product picture might not be included. - input voltage: 5
