LTC3780 10A DC-DC Automatic Buck Boost Converter Module-Adjustable Step Up Step Down Power Supply

LTC3780 10A DC-DC Automatic Buck Boost Converter Module with Adjustable CC/CV & UVLO Protection

TheLTC3780 10A DC-DC Buck Boost Converter Module is a high-performance automatic step-up/step-down power supply designed to deliver a stable output voltage even when the input voltage fluctuates above or below the desired output. Powered by the Linear Technology LTC3780 controller IC, this intelligent converter automatically switches between buck (step-down) and boost (step-up) modes without interrupting the output, making it ideal for automotive, battery-powered, solar, industrial, and DIY power applications.

Unlike conventional DC-DC converters that only boost or only buck the voltage, the LTC3780 seamlessly regulates the output voltage whether the input rises or falls. This makes it particularly suitable for automotive systems where battery voltage can vary from approximately 10.5V to 14.4V, ensuring sensitive electronics receive a constant and reliable power supply.

The module features Constant Voltage (CV) and Constant Current (CC) adjustment, allowing precise control over output voltage and current. An integrated Undervoltage Lockout (UVLO) function protects batteries from deep discharge by automatically shutting down the output when the input voltage falls below the user-defined threshold.

Designed with premium components, a replaceable input fuse, low ESR capacitors, and an efficient aluminum heatsink, the LTC3780 converter achieves up to 98% conversion efficiency, making it suitable for battery charging, LED driving, solar systems, laboratory power supplies, robotics, embedded systems, and industrial automation.
