For example the AMSR1-78Z step-down converters accept wide inputs ranging from 4.75-18VDC to 6.50-18VDC that step down to tightly regulated (\u00b10.6%) output voltages starting as low as 1.5 to 5VDC, within efficiency rates as high as 94%.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0Amazingly it is also pin-to-pin compatible with the TO-220 package, and does not require a <a href=\"http:\/\/www.hilltech.com\/products\/power_components\/heat_sinks.html\">heat sink<\/a>, input and output capacitors or any of the other external components associated with traditional linear regulators.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0The technical and cost benefits of the AMSR1-78Z&#8217;s feature rich design include:<\/p>\n<p>\u00b7 simplified design process by eliminating the need to add ancillary components;<\/p>\n<p>\u00b7 designed to operate at full output power without <a href=\"http:\/\/www.hilltech.com\/products\/power_components\/heat_sinks.html\">heatsink<\/a>;<\/p>\n<p>\u00b7 high efficiency that eliminates the need for forced air cooling below +85\u00b0C;<\/p>\n<p>\u00b7 continuous output short circuit protection;<\/p>\n<p>\u00b7 more efficient use of valuable PCB board space.<\/p>\n<p>For more information, contact:<\/p>\n<p>Alena Kamin<br \/>\nCustomer Service Manager<br \/>\nHill Technical Sales<br \/>\n216 West Campus Drive<br \/>\nArlington Heights, IL 60004\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<br \/>\nTel: +1- 847-255-4400\u00a0 ext 13<br \/>\nFax: +1-847-255-0192\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>You my also visit: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.hilltech.com\/\">http:\/\/www.hilltech.com\/<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>DC-DC is Pin-pin compatible with the TO-220 package, and does not require a heat sink, input and output capacitors or any of the other external components associated with traditional linear regulators.<br \/>\n <a href=\"https:\/\/blog.hilltech.com\/?p=59\">Continue reading <span class=\"meta-nav\">&rarr;<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[178],"tags":[224],"class_list":["post-59","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-news_hill_tech","tag-dc-to-dc"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v25.6 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>AMSR1-78Z: Smallest DC- DC switching regulators with 1A output current -<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/blog.hilltech.com\/?p=59\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"AMSR1-78Z: Smallest DC- DC switching regulators with 1A output current -\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"DC-DC is Pin-pin compatible with the TO-220 package, and does not require a heat sink, input and output capacitors or any of the other external components associated with traditional linear regulators.
