HLK-PM01 AC to DC 5V Power Module

HLK-PM01 Pinout

TheHLK-PM01is a small size low costAC to DC converterwhich can take in 110V/220V AC at 50/60 Hz and give 5V 3W output. The module is can be used in designs which run on 5V and needs to be powered form the AC mains.

Where to use HLKPM01

TheHLKPM01is commonly used in places where a microcontroller circuit has to be powered directly from AC mains. Most digital circuits operate at a voltage of 5V, this module canconvert the AC mains to 5Vwith an efficiency of 70%. The module also meets the UL,CE requirements hence can be used in commercial products and should be free from ripple and noise.

However the module can source only a maximum of 600mA as continuous current, so if you circuit requires anything more than that then consider theHLK-5M05module which can source upto 1A.

How to use the HLKPM01

The HLKPM-01 module is a circuit by itself. Inside the thick black box there are circuits to convert your AC mains directly to 5V DC. So using it is pretty simple. You just have to connect the AC mains terminals to the AC pin and we will get a 5V regulated voltage at its output terminals.

The module also has built-inshort circuit protectionandover current protection. But, still you might consider adding some external protection circuits based on your Power regulation and application. Commonly a fuse and aMOVis used on the input side to protect the module from voltage and current spikes.
