XL4015 Adjustable DC-DC Step-Down Module 5A

XL4015 Adjustable DC-DC Step-Down Module 5A The XL4015 is a fixed frequency PWM buck (step-down) DC/DC converter operating at 180 KHz. It can efficiently drive a 5A load while maintaining low ripple and excellent line and load regulation. Designed for simplicity, it requires a minimal number of external components and includes internal frequency compensation along with a fixed-frequency oscillator. The PWM control circuit adjusts the duty ratio linearly from 0% to 100%. It features built-in overcurrent protection, which reduces the operating frequency from 180 KHz to 48 KHz in the event of a short circuit. Additionally, an internal compensation block is incorporated to minimize the need for external components.

XL4015 DC-DC Step Down Module with Voltmeter 5A The XL4015 power module is a DC to DC step-down (BUCK) power module that operates at a switching frequency of 180kHz. In such high frequency, it provides smaller sized filter components compared with low frequency switching regulators. This DC-DC switching buck converter is capable of driving a 5A load with excellent line and load regulation. The main switching component is XL4015, an adjustable output version switching regulator. It is an efficient switching regulator and the output efficiency is significantly higher in comparison with the popular boost regulators. At higher input voltages, the regulator operates at a switching frequency of 180kHz, thus allowing the overall board size to be smaller and space-saving. It is a high-power switching module with a toroidal ring inductor. Specifications: • Input voltage: 4 – 38V • Output voltage: 1.25 – 36V (adjustable) • Output current: Maximum output current 5A • Note: The higher the voltage, the load current increases. Try to use it within 4.5A. • Output power: It is recommended to use within 75W • Note: Heat sink required if output power exceeds 50W • Efficiency of this regulator up to 96% • Note: Efficiency is related to input, output voltage, current, and the voltage difference • Load regulation: 0.8% • Voltage regulation: 0.8% • Adjustable potentiometer onboard for output voltage adjustment. • Power LED indicator • Thermal Protection enabled. • Short circuit proportion: limited to 8A. • Dimension: 54*23*18 mm (L*W*H) Pinout: Pin Name: Description IN+: Positive input (Unregulated or Regulated) IN-: Negative input (Ground) OUT+: Positive Output (Regulated) OUT-: Negative Output (Ground) Package Includes: • 1x Step Down Module Documents: • Datasheet Relate Products: • Arduino | Shields

Allow extra height for inductor & capacitors; keep airflow around heatsink. Usage Notes & Safety Non‑isolated buck: input and output share ground—avoid ground loops. Keep VIN ≥ VOUT + ~2V for stable regulation. For >50W loads, attach the heatsink and ensure airflow; consider bolting to a metal plate. Add an input fuse and TVS or MOV if used on automotive lines. When using USB‑A , set output to exactly 5.00V before connecting devices. For battery charging: only use CC/CV batches and set correct limits. Quality & Testing Each unit is visually inspected and function‑tested (no‑load and 5V/12V load check). Ripple/thermals depend on load profile; for critical builds, validate on your bench. Shipping & Handling Packed in antistatic bag with padding. We recommend storing modules in dry conditions and avoiding mechanical stress on the inductor and trimmers. Batch Variations Notice CV‑only vs CC/CV: Some lots include current‑limit functionality (LM358 op‑amp on board), others are voltage‑only. We stock CV by default unless “CC/CV” is explicitly stated on the label. Voltmeter & buttons: 3‑digit vs 4‑digit display; 1–2 buttons for IN/OUT toggle. Heatsink: May or may not be pre‑installed. Layout: Small differences in silkscreen (e.g., HW‑316 vs HW‑064). If a specific variant is required, please confirm with our team before ordering.
