This RVFM breadboard power supply provides both 3.3 and 5V DC to suit all popular microcontrollers such as the Arduino. The board will accept 6.5 to 12V DC input. It provides two regulated outputs which can be jumper selected to be 3.3V, 5V or Off. There is a USB A socket so that the device is ideal for powering development boards such as the Arduino. There are two sets of header pins which plug into the breadboard allowing you to minimise the number of tie points you use or to maximise the stability of the PSU. More header pins are available on the top of the board if you need to use flying lead connections. The board is equipped with an on/off switch and a power indicator LED.

Q. Hi, Would this be suitable for use with a 12v leisure battery ? When fully charged the battery shows 13.5v, so this is a little over the recommended 12v input. It's for use with a Mega 2560 on a mobile test rig. No datasheet available so I'm unsure of input tolerances. Keith
A. Hi Mari, thank you for your question. The manufacturer only states a maximum 12V so it may be worth adding a protection diode to only allow 12V in case it damages the unit. We would suggest 50-0478.
