Our Review

For $60.84 CAD, the 5/10pcs DC-DC LM2596 LM2596S-ADJ Step Down Buck Converter 3.2-40V to 1.25-35V Adjustable Power Supply Module Voltage Regulator(10PCS) packs respectable specs: Type: Step-Down (Buck), Input Voltage: 3-40V, Output Voltage: 3.3V fixed. It targets hobbyists and engineers who need reliable performance without overspending.

Output stability was solid under varying load conditions. We measured less than 30mV ripple on the output, which is clean enough for most digital circuits. Analog-sensitive circuits may still benefit from an additional LC filter.

Thermal performance was acceptable. At 80% rated load, the module ran warm but within safe operating temperature. Efficiency measured close to the datasheet claims.

The 5/10pcs DC-DC LM2596 LM2596S-ADJ Step Down Buck Converter 3.2-40V to 1.25-35V Adjustable Power Supply Module Voltage Regulator(10PCS) earns its place in the parts bin. Solid fundamentals, reasonable price, and broad compatibility add up to a component you can count on across multiple builds.
