ElectroCraze UBEC 5A
High-current switch-mode UBEC delivering 5A continuous at a selectable 5V or 7.4V output from an 8–48V input. Built for multi-servo setups, large RC aircraft, hexacopters and robotic platforms.
- 5A continuous output, 5V (default) or 7.4V via solder pad
- Very wide 8V–48V input range
- ON/OFF control through the CTL pad
- Green LED power indicator
- Compact 22 × 14 × 7 mm board
The ElectroCraze UBEC 5A is the high-current variant for demanding RC and robotics applications that need more servo power. It steps your LiPo battery voltage (8V–48V input) down to a regulated 5V or 7.4V at up to 5A continuous, which suits multi-servo setups, large RC aircraft, heavy hexacopters and advanced robotic platforms.
The switch-mode design minimises heat and maximises runtime. Built-in overcurrent, short-circuit and overheat protection keep your downstream devices safe, and a green LED confirms the UBEC is powered on.
Key Features:-
- High-efficiency switching: switch-mode design reduces heat and power loss
- 5A continuous output: handles high-demand servo loads
- Overcurrent protection: protects against excessive load currents
- Short-circuit protection: safe auto-shutdown on short-circuit events
- Overheat protection: thermal shutdown before component damage
- Dual voltage output: select 5.0V or 7.4V by soldering a PCB pad
Output Voltage Selection:-
The default output is 5V. Solder the 7.4V PCB pad to switch the output to 7.4V. Check your receiver, servo or flight controller's voltage rating before choosing 7.4V.
ON / OFF Control (CTL Pad):-
| CTL Signal | UBEC Status |
|---|---|
| 0V or not connected | ON |
| 8V – 48V applied | OFF |
Wiring:-
- Input: Vin → Battery (+), G → Battery (−)
- Output: 5V or 7.4V → Load (+), G → Load ground (−)
- CTL: leave open or at 0V for ON, apply 8V–48V for OFF
Applications:-
Large RC airplanes • Hexacopters & octocopters • RC helicopters • Robotic arms & platforms • Multi-servo systems • Advanced flight controllers
