KEHIPI

KEHIPI 10 pcs DC 4.5-24V to 5V Buck Converter 3A Power Adapter

SKU CH-9STH-RDHEJ

Pack of ten buck converters stepping 4.5–24 V down to selectable 5 V at up to 3 A with 97.5 % efficiency

  • Wide input range suits many DC sources
  • Fixed 5 V output selected on board back
  • Up to 3 A current for demanding loads
  • 5 % efficiency reduces heat waste
  • Ultra-low 0.85 mA quiescent current saves battery

Ten-piece buck converter kit

The KEHIPI kit supplies ten identical step-down modules that accept DC 4.5-24V and deliver a regulated 5V rail at up to 3A. Each board measures 20 x 11 x 5 mm and uses 2.54 mm pitch solder pads for power and control connections. The synchronous design runs at 500KHz and achieves 97.5% efficiency at 6.5V to 5V, 0.7A.

Makers needing multiple fixed 5V rails

Hobbyists powering microcontrollers, sensors or USB devices from 12V or 24V sources can solder a board directly onto a perf-board or header strip. The enable pin draws only 0.85mA quiescent current, so a permanent battery connection is practical. Builders who require adjustable output above 5V, reverse-polarity protection or over-voltage shutdown should select a different module.

Solder-ready boards with selectable fixed outputs

The back-side jumpers let you choose 1.8V, 2.5V, 3.3V, 5V, 9V or 12V without any external components. At 12V in and 1.5A out no extra heatsink is needed; at full 3A load the temperature rises about 40°C, so forced air or a larger copper pour is advised. Short-circuit protection is present but not intended for continuous abuse.

Questions about this item

What input voltage range must my power source provide for the KEHIPI buck converter to operate?

The module accepts a DC input range of 4.5-24V, so any source within that window — such as a 12V battery or 24V supply — will work.

Will the 2.54 mm pin spacing on this converter match the perfboard I already use for prototypes?

Yes, the welding-hole spacing is 2.54 mm, which is the standard pitch used on most perfboards and breadboards.

How can I verify the converter is regulating correctly after I solder it in place?

Measure the output with a multimeter; you should see the selected fixed voltage (1.8V, 2.5V, 3.3V, 5V, 9V or 12V) or your adjusted value between 0.8-17V, with ripple around 20 mV under load.
