Description

Product Overview

The LM2596 is a popular “Buck” converter that efficiently converts a high input voltage into a lower output voltage. Unlike traditional linear regulators (like the L7805), this switching regulator is highly efficient and generates much less heat. It is a must-have for any hobbyist’s toolkit for powering 5V projects from 12V batteries or 24V power supplies.

Arduino & Power Wiring


  • IN+: Input Positive (4.5V to 40V)

  • IN-: Input Negative (GND)

  • OUT+: Output Positive (1.23V to 37V)

  • OUT-: Output Negative (GND)

  • Adjustment: Turn the onboard Blue Potentiometer clockwise to decrease the output voltage.

    (Note: Always use a multimeter to set the desired voltage before connecting it to your project)
