This PWM buck (step-down) DC/DC converter module provides 1.25V to 36V continuously adjustable output voltage at up to 8A peak / 5A continuous current with high efficiency, low ripple and excellent line and load regulation. An onboard multi-turn potentiometer is used to adjust the output voltage level.
It features a 3-character digital display which displays the output voltage. An onboard trim potentiometer can be used to calibrate the display if needed.
This module is ideal for regulating 12V, 18V or 24V battery voltage down to the 12V, 9V, 5V or 3.3V levels required by many electronic circuits. For example, it could step a 12V car battery down to 5V for USB-powered devices such as cell phones or Arduino microcontrollers.
Features:
- Adjustment method: first correct input power (between 4-40V) then multimeter to monitor the output voltage and adjust potentiometer (usually clockwise turn boost, buck turn counterclockwise),
- Input: IN+ input positive IN- input negative
- Output: OUT+ output positive OUT- output negative
- Static power consumption is only about 6mA.
- Connection: Welding, plus pin can be directly soldered after the PCB.
- Short circuit protection: current limiting, thermal protection, self-recovery.
- Non-isolated step-down (BUCK)switching regulator.
- Short circuit protection: Current limiting, self-recovery
- Potentiometer adjustment direction is as Clockwise (increase) and Anti-clockwise (decrease)
- Non-synchronous rectification
