Description
What it is
The LTC1871 100W Boost Module is a step-up voltage converter that uses the LTC1871 integrated circuit. It allows the input voltage (3-35V) to be increased to a regulated output (12V) between 3.5V and 35V. The module includes a voltmeter LED to display the output voltage and a heat sink to manage the heat generated during operation.
Features
- Input Voltage: 3-35V
- Regulated Output Voltage: 12V (3.5-35V)
- Maximum Power: 100W
- Includes voltmeter LED
- Includes heat sink
What it is for
The module is ideal for powering high-power LEDs, LED lighting applications, and electronic projects that require a voltage boost. It can also be used to power electronic devices with higher voltage requirements than the main power source.
