MT3608 5–26V Boost Regulator with Wired and Micro USB Input

Easily Boost 5V to 12V (up to 26V)

Generate up to 26V 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 a small inrush current and extends battery life.

Alternate Part: We also carry an alternate version of the MT3608 Boost Module, complete with only a Wired connection. See our other MT3608 Boost Regulator module.
