400W Boost Constant Current Module

A 400W Boost Constant Current Module is a DC-to-DC step-up converter designed to increase a lower input voltage to a higher, adjustable output voltage while also maintaining a constant output current. This type of non-isolated module is useful for applications where a stable current is essential, such as driving high-power LEDs or charging batteries.

Feature:

• Boost (Step-Up) Conversion: This is its core function. It takes a lower DC input voltage and “steps it up” to a higher, adjustable DC output voltage. This is essential for powering devices that require more voltage than the available source, such as a 12V car battery.
• Constant Current (CC) and Constant Voltage (CV) Modes: The module can operate in two modes. It acts as a constant voltage source when the load’s current draw is below a certain threshold. However, if the load attempts to draw more current than a user-defined limit, the module switches to constant current mode, automatically reducing the output voltage to maintain the set current level. This is crucial for applications like battery charging and driving LEDs.
