Matek PDB-XT60 with Dual BEC – Professional 5V & 12V Power Distribution Board
Streamline your drone build and ensure rock-solid power delivery with the Matek PDB-XT60. Engineered for high-current efficiency, this Power Distribution Board (PDB) acts as the central nervous system for your multirotor, distributing raw battery power to up to 6 ESCs while providing clean, regulated voltage for your sensitive electronics.
Built on a heavy-duty 4-layer 2oz copper PCB, the Matek PDB is designed to handle high amp draws without overheating. With an integrated XT60 socket and synchronized 5V/12V BECs, it eliminates "wire nests," reducing weight and improving the overall reliability of your FPV racer or cinema rig.
Key Highlights:
-
High-Current Distribution: Designed to support 3S–4S LiPo inputs, providing stable power to 4 ESCs at 25A continuous (or 6 ESCs at 15A).
-
Dual Synchronous BECs: Features a high-efficiency 5V (2A) output for flight controllers and receivers, plus a filtered 12V (500mA) output specifically for noise-free FPV video.
-
Integrated XT60 Mounting: The PCB-mounted XT60 connector provides a secure, low-resistance battery connection, saving space and simplifying your frame layout.
-
Visual Status Indicators: Dual onboard LEDs provide instant visual confirmation that your 5V and 12V regulators are functioning correctly.
-
Short-Circuit Protection: Tolerant to brief short-circuits, protecting your expensive flight stack from accidental wiring mishaps during the build process.
-
Clean Video Filtering: The 12V linear regulator is optimized to minimize "lines" in your FPV feed, ensuring a crystal-clear image for your camera and VTX.

Power Configuration Note:
-
On 4S LiPo (14.8V): The 12V BEC provides a steady, regulated 12V output.
-
On 3S LiPo (11.1V): The 12V output will follow the battery voltage minus approximately 1V (e.g., ~10.1V).
Pro-Builder Tip:
The Matek PDB-XT60 features standard 30.5mm x 30.5mm mounting holes, allowing you to stack it directly beneath your flight controller. To keep your video feed as clean as possible, use the dedicated VCC/GND pads for your high-power components and keep signal wires away from the high-current ESC traces!
