A DC-DC buck-boost converter module that accepts input voltages both higher and lower than the desired output, delivering a stable regulated output up to 5A. Two onboard potentiometers let you set the output voltage and maximum current independently.

Specifications

  • Input Voltage – 6–35V DC
  • Output Voltage – 1.0–33V DC (adjustable, can be higher or lower than input)
  • Max Output Current – 5 A (adjustable from 0.05 A)
  • Max Input Current – 7 A
  • Conversion Efficiency – Up to 90% (measured at 12V in, 19V/2.5 A out)
  • Adjustment – Voltage potentiometer + constant current potentiometer
  • Size – 70 × 39 × 32 mm

Board Layout

  • 1 – Input +
  • 2 – Input −
  • 3 – Constant current indicator LED
  • 4 – Constant current adjustment potentiometer
  • 5 – Output +
  • 6 – Output −
  • 7 – Output indicator LED
  • 8 – Output voltage adjustment potentiometer

Ideal For

  • Bench power supply projects
  • Embedded system power regulation
  • Battery charging and solar applications
Note: Add a heatsink when operating at high power to avoid overheating. Leave margin on input and output current ratings for continuous use.

  • 1× DC-DC Buck-Boost Converter Module

Jargon buster

Plain-language definitions for the technical terms used above.

boost converter
A boost converter is a power circuit that raises a lower input voltage to a higher output voltage. It matters here because the board can power a sensor that needs a higher supply voltage while still using a single connector for power and data.
LED
A light-emitting diode is a small electronic component that lights up when current flows through it in the correct direction. In this kit, LEDs create the flashing effect, so polarity and correct soldering matter for the project to work.
potentiometer
A variable resistor usually turned with a knob or shaft to create an adjustable electrical signal. It is often used for inputs such as volume, brightness or position, so it helps beginners learn how a microcontroller reads changing values.
