Design a Custom BoardAbout This Component
Fixed 5V linear voltage regulator in TO-252 package rated for 1A output current. Features thermal overload protection, short circuit protection, and safe operating area protection. Typical dropout voltage of 2V at 500mA makes it suitable for powering microcontrollers, sensors, and other 5V logic circuits from 7-25V input supplies.
Package: TO-252-2 · 3 pins
Why does this need a breakout?
TO-252 power MOSFETs require careful hand-soldering due to the large drain tab and tight 4.56mm lead spacing, making a breakout board essential for reliable prototyping. This board converts the package to breadboard-compatible headers and standard 0.1-inch pitch, eliminating soldering risk and enabling rapid circuit iteration for power switching applications.
