DC–DC Converter (Step-Up MT3608)

The MT3608 DC–DC Step-Up Converter is a high-efficiency boost converter that increases lower DC voltage to a higher level. It is ideal for powering 5V systems from a 3.7V Li-ion battery in robotics and IoT projects.

How It Works?

The MT3608 uses a boost switching regulator that stores energy in an inductor and releases it at a higher voltage. It ensures a constant output even when input voltage fluctuates, making it perfect for battery-powered devices.

Key Features

  • Input Voltage: 2V – 24V DC
  • Output Voltage: 5V – 28V (adjustable)
  • Max Output Current: up to 2A
  • Efficiency up to 93%
  • Compact and ideal for portable applications
