Adafruit PowerBoost 1000 Basic - 5V USB Boost @ 1000mA from 1.8V

PowerBoost effortlessly fuels your demanding portable projects. This compact DC/DC boost converter module transforms input from as low as 1.8V into a stable 5.2V DC, ideal for 5V setups. With a robust 4A converter, it efficiently delivers over 1A from minimal inputs, echoing the performance of our distinguished 5V 1A USB adapters.Enhanced with a 5.2V output, it compensates for resistance in extended cable runs and high-load scenarios, ensuring consistent power delivery. It's compatible with all 5V devices like Arduino, Raspberry Pi, and Beagle Bone, preventing power issues during intense draw.At the core of PowerBoost is a TPS61030 boost converter, renowned for features such as low battery detection, a 4A internal switch, and synchronous conversion, ensuring top-tier efficiency. With an easy-enable pin, disconnection is immediate by grounding, ensuring on-demand power management.Specifications highlight its capability: 1.8V inputs yield 1000mA+ output, increasing with more potent batteries. A low battery LED triggers at sub-3.2V levels, providing timely alerts. Dedicated Apple/iOS resistors facilitate efficient 1000mA charging for iPhones and iPads.The integrated breakout offers simple connections for inputs, control pins, and outputs. The high efficiency of over 90% assures minimal power loss, equipped for a wide range of projects from robotics to Arduino systems. The package includes a ready-to-use PCB, JST jack, terminal block, and USB A jack, empowering straightforward integration for power customization.
