MuRata 5v Switching Regulator (for 48K models)

MuRata Switch Mode 5v Regulator (replaces 7805)

A direct replacement for the cheap but inefficient 7805 found in the Spectrum. A high-efficiency switch mode regulator, so wastes very little power as heat (the Spectrum’s heatsink is NOT needed when this regulator is fitted)

• High efficiency 5v 1.5A output
• Short circuit protection
• Over current shutdown
• Over temperature shutdown
• Modified by us for horizontal mounting – This Murata 5v Switching Regulator (for 48K models) is essential for Issue 2 boards in rubber key cases due to space constraints  (Optional on other Spectrum 48k boards. See HERE for the unmodifed vertical mounted version)
