Design and Construction

The HLK-PM01 features a compact PCB-mountable design with an enclosed construction that helps protect the internal switching power-supply circuitry. Its small size allows it to be integrated directly into electronic control boards and embedded devices.

The module uses a switching power-supply topology to convert AC mains voltage into a regulated low-voltage DC output. Compared with conventional linear power supplies, the switching design provides improved efficiency and reduced heat generation.

The isolated output makes the module suitable for applications where electrical separation between the mains input and low-voltage electronics is required.

Working Principle

The module receives AC mains power at its input and converts it into a stable 5V DC output through a high-frequency switching conversion process.

The AC input is processed by the internal power-supply circuit and converted into a controlled low-voltage DC output. The switching architecture helps maintain efficient power conversion while reducing heat generation.

The module includes protection against output overload and short-circuit conditions, helping protect the power supply and connected circuitry under abnormal operating conditions.

Input and Output

The module is designed to accept a wide AC input range of approximately 90V to 264V AC, allowing it to operate across common mains-voltage environments.

The output is a regulated 5V DC supply suitable for low-power electronic circuits.

Typical applications include powering:

• Microcontrollers
• Sensors
• Relay modules
• IoT devices
• Display modules
• Communication modules
• Control circuits
• Automation electronics

The connected load should remain within the module’s rated power and current limits.

Power Rating

The HLK-PM01 has a stated power rating of 3W. At a nominal 5V output, this corresponds to approximately 600mA maximum output current under suitable operating conditions.

For reliable long-term operation, the connected load should remain within the manufacturer’s specified limits. Actual available output power may depend on input voltage, ambient temperature, enclosure design, and operating conditions.

Protection Features

The module includes protection features designed to improve reliability:

• Overload protection – Helps protect the power supply when the output load exceeds its rated capability.
• Short-circuit protection – Helps protect the module if the output is accidentally shorted.

These protections should not be treated as a substitute for correct wiring, fusing, and electrical safety practices.

Environmental Conditions

The module is designed for the following stated environmental conditions:

• Operating temperature: -20°C to +60°C
• Storage temperature: -40°C to +80°C
• Relative humidity: 5–95%

Important Safety Information

This module connects directly to hazardous AC mains voltage. Installation, wiring, testing, and enclosure design should be performed by a qualified or experienced person.

Always disconnect mains power before handling the module. Maintain adequate creepage, clearance, insulation, enclosure protection, and fuse protection as required by the application.

Do not touch the input-side circuitry while the module is connected to mains power. The low-voltage output should also be treated according to the isolation and safety requirements of the final product.
