A USB to DC boost converter cable that steps up 5 V from a USB power source to either 9 V or 12 V output, selectable via a built-in switch. A digital LED display shows the current output voltage. Simply plug the USB end into a power bank, USB charger, or any 5 V USB source to power 9 V or 12 V devices on the go.

Key Features

  • 5 V to 9 V / 12 V Boost – Selectable output voltage via switch
  • LED Voltage Display – Shows current output voltage
  • USB Input – Compatible with power banks, USB chargers, and USB ports
  • DC Round Head Output – Standard barrel connector for common devices
  • 0.8 m Cable Length – Convenient reach for most setups

Specifications

  • Input Voltage – 5 V (USB)
  • Output Voltage – 9 V or 12 V (switchable)
  • Max Output Current – 1 A at 9 V / 0.8 A at 12 V

  • 1× 3.3 × 1.35 mm Adapter

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.
