    Description

    The voltage regulator is used to automatically regulate voltage level.  It will reduce the input voltage to the level you’re targeting and keeps that same level while supplying power to your sensors.

    Specs

    Voltage Range

    3V – 30V

    Mechanical Measurements

    0.705″ wide x 0.454″ tall x 0.130″ thick.

    Pinout

    Connect the pins of the sensor to the OUT side of the MB7986.

    Pin 1 of the sensor connects to Pin 1 of the voltage regulation board.

    This repeats for each pin of the sensor. (i.e. Pin 2 to Pin 2, etc.)

    Connect the pins of the reading device to the IN side of the MB7986.
