This kit will allow you to operate your project with a +12vDC battery. Perfect automotive or robotics applications. This power supply allows up to 1.0 A load current with the heat sinking provided (battery used will determine actual allowable current). Current limiting is included to limit the peak output current to a safe value and a thermal shutdown circuit prevents the regulator from overheating. Provides +5vDC fixed and +6 to +9.5vDC variable output wellregulated and filtered.
