Matek PM12S-3 PDB Power Module
Power your most demanding large-scale FPV drone or UAV with the Matek PM12S-3, a professional-grade Power Module and Distribution Board. This PDB is engineered to handle extreme high-voltage systems up to 12S LiPo and deliver clean, reliable, and powerful regulated voltage through three independent BECs. It’s the ultimate power solution for X-Class racers, heavy-lift cinelifters, and large fixed-wing FPV aircraft.
Three Powerful, Independent BEC Outputs
The PM12S-3 is designed to be the central power hub for your entire aircraft, featuring three robust BEC (Battery Eliminator Circuit) outputs:
- A massive 15A adjustable BEC that can be set to 5.2V, 6V, or 8V. It’s powerful enough to drive a full suite of large, power-hungry digital servos without flinching.
- A reliable 4A 5V BEC, perfect for providing clean power to your flight controller, receiver, and GPS module.
- A strong 4A 12V BEC, ideal for FPV cameras, high-power video transmitters, and other 12V accessories.
Extreme Voltage & Power Handling
Built for high-power systems, this PDB accepts a wide input voltage range from 9V all the way up to 55V (3S-12S LiPo). It also includes built-in TVS protection to help absorb dangerous voltage spikes, adding a layer of security to your entire FPV drone electronics system. The board features a current sensor signal passthrough pad for use with a flight controller.
High-Efficiency & Reliable Design
Matek has engineered this power module for maximum efficiency (up to 96%) and reliability. Each BEC features thermal shutdown, short-circuit tolerance, and overcurrent protection with self-recovery. It’s a professional-grade drone part designed for mission-critical applications where power system failure is not an option.
Important Installation Note
Please be aware that this PDB has no protection for reversed input polarity. You must be extremely careful to wire the main battery input correctly to avoid permanently damaging the board and any connected components.
