SmartElex PowerBoost 500C DC DC Boost Converter Module
The SmartElex PowerBoost 500C DC DC Boost Converter Module is a compact and efficient solution for powering 5V electronics from a single 3.7V Li-Ion or Li-Poly battery. This boost converter module steps up the battery voltage to a stable 5.2V DC, ensuring consistent power for microcontrollers, sensors, and portable devices.
Its built-in battery charger allows your project to run uninterrupted while the battery is being recharged. With an internal 2A switch (~2.5A peak limit) and the ability to supply up to 500mA output current, the PowerBoost 500C offers dependable performance for on-the-go applications.
The onboard low-battery LED indicator provides a clear visual alert when the battery voltage drops below 3.2V, helping protect your power source and maintain reliable operation.
Features:
• Synchronous operation: Disconnect output by grounding the ENable pin.
• 2A Internal Switch: A 3.7V LiPoly/LiIon battery produces 500mA or more.
• Low battery indicator: A red LED illuminates when the battery voltage falls below 3.2 volts.
• iOS Charging Support: Onboard data resistors allow for 500mA iPhone/iPod charging.
• Full Breakout: Easy access to the battery, control pins, and power outputs.
• High efficiency: 90% or more, with a quiescent current of 5mA when activated.
• Power drain is only 20µA when disabled.
• Built-in battery charger keeps your project running while it recharges.
• 5.2V output is ideal for powering 5V projects.
