The largest fan in the 5V USB range, this 90mm cooling fan provides maximum airflow for electronics projects. Simply plug into any USB port for immediate cooling — no drivers or setup required.
The USB connector can be cut off to wire the fan directly to a 5V power source. While there's no built-in PWM or feedback pin, you can control fan speed using a motor controller, H-Bridge, or MOSFET. As an inductive load, a flyback diode is recommended to protect your circuitry.
Key Features
- Plug-and-Play USB Power – Connect to any USB port for instant cooling
- Direct 5V Wiring Option – Cut the USB connector to wire directly to a 5V source
- Largest in the Range – 90mm fan delivers the most airflow of all sizes
- Standard 25mm Depth – Common form factor compatible with most fan mounts
- Protective Grills – Front and back grills included for safety
- Secure Mounting – Includes screws and nuts for easy installation

Jargon buster
Plain-language definitions for the technical terms used above.
- motor driver
- An electronic circuit that lets a low-power controller switch and control a motor that needs more current than the controller pins can safely provide. Checking motor driver support matters because pumps and motors usually cannot be connected directly to a microcontroller output.
- PWM
- Pulse Width Modulation is a way for a digital pin to simulate variable output power by switching on and off very quickly. It matters for controlling things like LED brightness, motor speed, or servo-style signals from a microcontroller pin.
