Overview
MATEKSYS PM20S-2 Power Module is a power module designed for consistent and efficient power distribution. It uses 100V DC components and supports 9V to 85V DC input (also shown as 4~20S LiPo), with built-in 85V TVS protection. The board integrates 2 independent step-down (buck) voltage regulators with multiple output options, providing typical continuous output current up to 15A and peak current up to 22A.

Details

MATEKSYS PM20S-2 takes 9–85V DC input (4–20S LiPo) and provides two independent step-down BEC outputs in a compact 61×40×15mm module.

The MATEKSYS PM20S-2 power module uses clearly labeled VIN, V1 and V2 solder pads and a compact 61 x 48 mm footprint for clean wiring in builds.

MATEKSYS PM20S-2 provides selectable OUT-1 and OUT-2 voltage options via onboard solder jumpers and a VIN sense output marked 1/26 VIN (0–3.3V).
