DC-DC USB Boost Step-up Converter 0.9V-5V to 5V
In Stock
Categories: Converters
Description
Key Features:
✔ Ultra-Wide Input Range – 0.9V–5V → 5V output (supports nearly dead batteries!). ✔ USB-A Output – Directly powers/charges smartphones, Arduino, Raspberry Pi Zero, etc. (max 500mA). ✔ High Efficiency (Up to 96%) – Minimizes energy waste for battery-critical apps. ✔ Auto Start/Stop – Powers on at ~1V, stops at ~0.7V to protect batteries. ✔ Tiny Size (22×17mm) – Fits into tight spaces (e.g., battery holders, solar chargers). ✔ No Wiring Needed – Plug-and-play with USB-A male port (or solder pads for custom projects).
Applications:
-
Emergency Phone Charger – Boost 1x AA/AAA/NiMH to 5V for USB devices.
-
