MT3608 DC-DC Boost Converter Module
—The MT3608 is a step-up (boost) converter module that raises a lower DC voltage to a higher one, typically turning a single lithium cell into a 5V or 12V rail.
Specifications
- Input 2-24V, output adjustable 5-28V
- Up to 2A output depending on ratio
- Efficiency around 93%
- Trimmer potentiometer sets output voltage
- Output must be higher than input — it cannot step down
What you can build with the MT3608 DC-DC Boost Converter Module
- Running 5V electronics from a 3.7V lithium cell
- Powering 12V devices from a battery pack
- Portable and wearable projects
- Solar-powered nodes needing a fixed rail
Compatibility
Used with any project needing a higher DC rail than its source. Set the output voltage with a multimeter before connecting a load. A boost converter cannot step down — pair it with a buck converter if the input range crosses the output.
Shipping
Dispatched from New Zealand with courier delivery nationwide, including rural addresses. Prices are in New Zealand dollars.
