MT3608 DC-DC Boost Regulator

Easily Boost 5V to 12V or More

Generate up to 28V DC power from a standard 5V USB input! This model features a MicroUSB input connector, so the module can be easily powered by merely plugging it into a standard 5V USB power supply or battery power bank. The module also includes solder pads on both the inputs and outputs.

The DC-DC voltage regulator is a constant frequency, current-mode step-up converter intended for small, low power applications. The MT3608 device switches at 1.2MHz and utilizes tiny components to minimize the overall module size. Internal soft-start circuitry results in small inrush current and extends battery life.

MT3608 Boost Regulator Specifications:

Maximum Output Current: 2A (recommended 1A continuous operation)
Input Voltage: +5V USB, or 2V - 24V DC
Maximum Output Voltage: 28V (Output voltage must be greater than input voltage)
Maxiumum Efficiency: Up to 97%, typically 93% at Vout=12V, Vin=5V, Iout=200mA
Dimensions: 30 mm * 17 mm * 6 mm

Operating Instructions:

• Connect the module to a +5V USB power supply or USB power bank through the micro USB connector, or attach Vin+ and Vin- to a +2V to +24V DC power supply
• Connect the Vout+ and Vout- to an appropriate load
• Adjust the potentiometer to vary the output voltage. Turn counter-clockwise to increase the voltage
• Input voltage should not exceed the 24V maximum input voltage Output voltage should not exceed the 28V maximum output voltage.
• Output voltage level must be greater than the input voltage level
• Peak output current should be limited to 2A maximum

Easy Hookup - Wired or MicroUSB Input
