Description

The Matek Systems 12S Pro BEC (Battery Eliminator Circuit) is engineered to provide reliable and stable power conversion for advanced drone and UAV platforms operating on high-voltage systems. With a broad input voltage range of 9V to 55V, it directly supports up to 12S LiPo batteries, making it suitable for industrial drones, long-range FPV setups, and heavy-lift applications. Its robust design incorporates TVS protection against voltage spikes, ensuring the longevity and safety of your onboard electronics.

Utilizing a synchronous switching step-down (buck) regulator, the 12S Pro BEC achieves high power conversion efficiency, typically ranging from 88% to 96%. This efficiency minimizes heat generation, allowing the unit to deliver a continuous output current of up to 5A, with peak capabilities reaching 9A for sudden power demands. Pilots can select between three regulated output voltages—5.2V, 8V, or 12V—to precisely match the requirements of flight controllers, FPV cameras, video transmitters, and other auxiliary components. Integrated thermal shutdown, overcurrent protection with self-recovery, and short-circuit tolerance (for 2 seconds) further enhance its operational resilience and safeguard connected devices during unexpected events.

Key Features

  • Synchronous switching step-down (buck) regulator for high efficiency (88% to 96%).
  • Ultra-low output ripple: 30mV (5.2V @ 5A) and 60mV (12V @ 5A) for clean power.
  • Wide 9V to 55V operating input range with transient voltage suppression (TVS) protection.
  • Configurable output voltages: 5.2V, 8V, or 12V (default 5.2V) to suit various components.
  • Sustained output current up to 5A, with a peak current capability of 9A.
  • Integrated overcurrent protection with automatic self-recovery.
  • Output short-circuit tolerance for up to 2 seconds, enhancing system safety.
  • Thermal shutdown protection prevents overheating under heavy loads.
  • Compact dimensions (35 x 24 x 5.5mm) and low weight (5g) for easy integration.

Applications

  • High-voltage FPV and freestyle drones (5S-12S setups)
