TRACOPOWER TEL 8 DC-DC Converter, 5V dc/ 1.6A Output, 9 → 18 V dc Input, 8W, Through Hole, +80°C Max Temp -40°C

Drop voltages in a jiffy with this DC-DC converter from Traco Power. It accepts inputs between 9 and 18V DC, so it's widely compatible with low-voltage electrical circuits. A maximum response time of 500μs ensures it's quick to give you a steady output of 5V DC. This means you can efficiently feed power to components such as sensors, controllers and LEDs. The unit's functional insulation and an internal input filter cut ripple and noise to no more than 55mVp-p. This reduces interference, so sensitive electronics work reliably. Through-hole mounting gives you a straightforward way to connect this converter to a standard PCB.

• 81% efficiency means it doesn't waste power by generating heat
• Works in temperatures between -40°C and +80°C, to handle industrial applications
• DIP16 package with dimensions of 24.1 (L) x 14 (W) x 8.5mm (D) means it's compact
• Continuous short-circuit protection guards against rogue currents

• Instrumentation
• IT equipment
• Industrial automation

Yes. This is a regulated unit, so its maximum variation is 0.8% on the input and 1% on the load.
