This compact DC-DC buck-boost converter automatically steps voltage up or down to deliver a stable 3.3 V output from a wide 2.5–15 V input range. With a maximum output current of 600 mA and ultra-low 180 µA quiescent current, it's perfect for battery-powered projects and embedded systems that need a reliable 3.3 V rail.

The module's tiny 17 × 13 mm footprint makes it easy to embed into custom designs. It operates at up to 1.2 MHz switching frequency for efficient conversion, with stable output voltage that won't drift over extended operation.

Key Features

  • Automatic Buck-Boost – Seamlessly steps voltage up or down to maintain 3.3 V output
  • Wide Input Range – Accepts 2.5–15 V DC input
  • 600 mA Peak Output – Sufficient for microcontrollers and peripherals
  • Low Quiescent Current – Only 180 µA, ideal for battery-powered applications
  • Compact Size – Just 17 × 13 mm for easy integration
  • Low Output Ripple – Less than 50 mV peak-to-peak at full load

Specifications

  • Input Voltage: 2.5–15 V DC
  • Output Voltage: 3.3 V (±0.1 V accuracy)
  • Max Output Current: 600 mA peak
  • Output Ripple: <50 mV peak-to-peak (full load)
  • Quiescent Current: 180 µA
  • Operating Temperature: −40 °C to +85 °C
  • Storage Temperature: −40 °C to +125 °C
  • Operating Humidity: 20–90% RH (non-condensing)
  • Isolation: Non-isolated
  • Service Life: 30,000 hours
  • Dimensions: 17 × 13 mm

Pinout

  • Vi+ – Power input (2.5–15 V DC)
  • Vi− – Input ground reference
  • Vo+ – Regulated 3.3 V output
  • Vo− – Output ground reference

Ideal For

  • Providing stable 3.3 V power to microcontrollers and sensors
  • Battery-powered projects using Li-Ion, Li-Po, or multi-cell AA/AAA batteries
  • Embedded systems requiring efficient voltage regulation
Warning: Input voltage must not exceed 15 V. Do not sustain loads at or above 600 mA for extended periods, as this may reduce module lifespan or cause damage. For higher load currents, increase the minimum input voltage to ensure stable operation.

Package Contents

  • 1× DC-DC Automatic Step Up-Down Power Module (3.3 V / 600 mA)

Jargon buster

Plain-language definitions for the technical terms used above.

boost converter
A boost converter is a switching power circuit that raises a lower input voltage to a higher output voltage. It is used when a device needs more voltage than its power source provides, for example running a 5 V sensor from a 3.3 V supply.
DC
DC means direct current, where electricity flows in one constant direction, as supplied by batteries, USB ports and many plug-pack power supplies. When a product specifies DC, it runs from a DC supply rather than mains AC, so you need to provide the correct voltage and polarity.
