## Description

A high-efficiency DC-DC step-down (buck) converter that accepts 6–24 V input and delivers a stable 5 V output at up to 16 A. With over 90% conversion efficiency at typical loads and output ripple below 20 mV, it provides clean, reliable power for demanding applications. The module includes over-temperature protection (125 °C), output short-circuit protection, and a thermal pad on the back for soldering to a large copper area to improve heat dissipation during sustained high-current operation. Key Features Wide Input Range – 6–24 V DC input, stable 5 V ±1% output 16 A Maximum Output – Plenty of current for motors, servos, and LEDs High Efficiency – Over 90% at 12 V input with 1–16 A load Low Ripple – Less than 20 mV output noise Built-In Protections – Over-temperature (125 °C) and short-circuit protection Thermal Pad – Solder to copper pour for enhanced heat dissipation Control Pins – EN (enable/disable), AGND (control ground), and PGOOD (power-good status) Control Pins EN – Enable/disable output via microcontroller IO pin (use a 1 kΩ series resistor) AGND – Single ground point for microcontroller control PGOOD – Outputs 5 V when output is normal, 0 V during fault or short circuit Specifications Input Voltage: 6–24 V DC Output Voltage: 5 V DC ±1% Max Output Current: 16 A Output Ripple: <20 mV (1–16 A load) Conversion Efficiency: >90% (12 V input, 1–16 A load) Static Current (EN floating): <2 mA Static Current (EN grounded): <3 µA Operating Temperature: −25 °C to +70 °C Over-Temperature Protection: 125 °C Short-Circuit Protection: Yes Dimensions: 30 × 26 × 8 mm Ideal For Robotics — powering multiple servos and motors from a single battery Drone systems and ESC power distribution High-power LED lighting Automotive and 12 V system electronics Prototyping with high-current 5 V loads Package Contents 1× DC-DC Buck Converter Module (6–24 V to 5 V / 16 A)
