Our Review

After integrating the Automatic Step Up Down DC Power Supply AT30 Converter Buck Boost Module Replace XL6009 4-30V to 0.5-30V 1Pcs into several test builds, we found it to be a capable component for the price. Key specs include Type: Step-Down (Buck), Input Voltage: 3-40V, Output Voltage: 3.3V fixed.

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.

Overall, the Automatic Step Up Down DC Power Supply AT30 Converter Buck Boost Module Replace XL6009 4-30V to 0.5-30V 1Pcs fills its role well. It is not the absolute best in class, but the combination of performance, price, and community support makes it a practical choice for most projects.

What We Like

  • Low quiescent current preserves battery in sleep mode
  • LED indicators show power and charging status
  • Built-in protection circuits prevent damage
  • Compact module saves board space in tight enclosures

Watch Out For

  • Electrolytic capacitors age and degrade over years
  • Battery capacity degrades after hundreds of charge cycles
  • Output ripple may affect sensitive analog circuits
