DFRobot 60W Adjustable DC-DC Buck Converter Module High Power 60W Buck Converter With Over Current Protection - RS7636

Description:

A buck converter is an efficient DC-to-DC power conversion circuit designed to reduce a higher input voltage to a lower, regulated output voltage, while simultaneously increasing the output current. Unlike linear regulators, which dissipate excess power as heat, buck converters utilize a switching topology to minimize power loss, achieving significantly higher efficiency. This makes them ideal for applications demanding substantial power delivery without excessive heat generation.

The core components of a buck converter are a semiconductor switch (typically a MOSFET), a diode, an inductor, and a capacitor. The switch rapidly turns on and off, controlling the proportion of the input voltage applied to the inductor. During the switch's "on" state, the inductor stores energy, and during the "off" state, the inductor releases this energy to the output. The diode prevents reverse current flow. The inductor and capacitor work together as a low-pass filter, smoothing the pulsating voltage and current from the switching action into a stable, low-ripple DC output.
