  • OUT+ output positive pole
  • OUT-output negative pole

output and input

Input voltage range: DC 3.2V to 46V

It is recommended to use within 40V! (The input voltage must be more than 1.5V higher than the output voltage. It cannot be boosted)

Output voltage range: DC 1.25V to 35V, continuously adjustable voltage, high efficiency (maximum 92%)

The maximum output current is 3A.

The actual measured load regulation rate at 12V input and 5V output current is less than 1% when the current is 1A.

Note:

  • This is a buck module, the input voltage must be higher than the output voltage.
  • If the output is below 2A, you don’t need to add a heat sink for a long time.
  • If the output current is greater than 2.5A (or the output power is greater than 10W), please add a heat sink when working for a long time.
