PSU2-Adj Three Terminal Adjustable Switch-Mode Voltage Regulator

This is an adjustable 1A switch-mode voltage regulator. The output voltage is adjustable between 0.8 and 6V. It is a high-efficiency replacement for popular three-terminal linear regulators. It is pin-to-pin compatible with the common LM7805 linear regulators. The maximum output is 1A of continuous current. It is a true drop in replacement for a TO-220 style regulator.

All the required capacitors are included on the module, no external capacitors are required.
No heatsink required, even at 1A continuous.
The output voltage guaranteed to be within +/-1% of the adjusted value..
The module has thermal shutdown and current limit protection.
Definitely no heatsink required.
The board is small in size and breadboard friendly, making it an ideal solutions for breadboard prototyping.

On a Red PCB to make identification easier.
