10-Pack MT3608 DC-DC Step-Up Boost Power Module 2A Adjustable
10-Pack MT3608 DC-DC Step-Up Boost Power Module 2A Adjustable
10-Pack MT3608 Adjustable DC-DC Step-Up Boost Power Modules
Upgrade your electronics projects with this 10-pack of MT3608 DC-DC Step-Up (Boost) Power Modules. Each compact module uses the MT3608 boost converter IC to efficiently raise a lower input voltage to a higher, adjustable output voltage — perfect for hobbyists, engineers, and makers working with microcontrollers, Arduino projects, battery-powered devices, and DIY power supplies.
Key Electrical Specifications
- Input Voltage Range: 2V – 24V DC
- Maximum Output Voltage: Up to 28V DC
- Common Output Targets: 5V, 9V, 12V, 24V (adjustable via onboard potentiometer)
- Maximum Output Current: 2A
- Conversion Efficiency: Up to 93%
- Module Dimensions: 36 mm × 17 mm × 14 mm
- EU LVD Compliance: Low voltage — below 50V AC or 75V DC
How to Use
Connect your input power source (2V–24V DC) to the IN+ and IN− terminals. Then rotate the onboard potentiometer to dial in your desired output voltage. The output voltage will always be higher than the input voltage — that's the nature of a boost (step-up) converter.
Tip: If the output voltage cannot be adjusted and appears equal to the input voltage, turn the potentiometer counterclockwise 20 or more full turns to re-initialize the boost function (hold the potentiometer facing you and turn counterclockwise).
Important Usage Notes
- Do not exceed the maximum input voltage of 24V to protect the module.
- Peak output current should not exceed 2A to ensure safe and stable operation.
- For best thermal performance, avoid prolonged operation at maximum current without adequate ventilation.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is an MT3608 DC-DC step-up boost power module used for?
A: The MT3608 step-up (boost) converter module is used to increase a lower DC input voltage to a higher DC output voltage. It's widely used in DIY electronics, Arduino and Raspberry Pi projects, portable battery chargers, LED driver circuits, and any application where you need a higher voltage than your power source provides.
Q: Can I use these MT3608 modules with a single-cell LiPo or Li-ion battery?
A: Yes! Single-cell LiPo/Li-ion batteries typically output 3.0V–4.2V, which falls well within the 2V–24V input range of these modules. You can boost that voltage up to 5V, 9V, 12V, or higher as needed for your circuit.
Q: How do I adjust the output voltage on the MT3608 module?
A: Use a small screwdriver to turn the onboard potentiometer. Clockwise rotation increases the output voltage, while counterclockwise rotation decreases it. Always use a multimeter to verify the output voltage before connecting sensitive components. If the output seems stuck at the input voltage, rotate counterclockwise 20+ full turns to reset the boost function.
Q: How many modules are included in this listing?
A: This listing includes a pack of 10 MT3608 DC-DC step-up boost power modules, making it ideal for stocking up for multiple projects or sharing with a team.
