Meet the MP1584EN Mini DC-DC Step-Down Module, a compact and highly efficient power regulator perfect for your electronics projects. This buck converter takes a higher input voltage and safely steps it down to a lower, adjustable output voltage. Its small size and high switching frequency make it an ideal replacement for older, bulkier regulators like the LM2596. Whether you're powering an Arduino, creating a custom battery-powered device, or need precise voltage for your DIY project, this module delivers stable and reliable performance. Key Features High-Efficiency Conversion: With up to 92% conversion efficiency, it minimizes power loss and heat generation. Wide Voltage Range: Accepts an input voltage from 4.5V to 28V and provides an adjustable output from 0.8V to 20V. Adjustable Output: Features an onboard potentiometer for fine-tuning the output voltage to your exact needs. Compact & Lightweight: Measuring only 22mmtimes17mm, it fits easily into space-constrained projects. High Switching Frequency: A 1.5MHz switching frequency allows for smaller external inductors and capacitors, contributing to its miniature size. Common Applications DIY mobile power supplies Powering microcontrollers like Arduino, ESP32, and Raspberry Pi Battery-powered cars, drones, and robotics LED lighting drivers Telecommunication and networking equipment Any project requiring efficient voltage reduction Specifications Chip: MP1584EN Input Voltage: 4.5V - 28V Output Voltage: 0.8V - 20V (Adjustable) Output Current: 3A (Max), 1.8A (Recommended continuous) Conversion Efficiency: 92% (Max) Switching Frequency: 1.5MHz Operating Temperature: −45°C to +85°C Dimensions: Approx. 22mm x 17mm x 4mm
