The smallest boost module worth buying - an MT3608 on the HW-045 board, about 36 x 17 mm, with a multiturn trimmer and four solder pads. It takes 2-24V in and can be set anywhere up to 28V out, switching at 1.2MHz with efficiency up to 93%. Note what the 2A rating means: it is the chip's internal switch limit measured on the input side, so useful output current falls as you boost harder - roughly 1A when lifting a 3.7V cell to 5V, but only a couple of hundred mA taking 5V up to 24V.

Key features

  • MT3608 on the HW-045 board, approx. 36 x 17 mm
  • 2-24V in, adjustable up to 28V out
  • 2A is the internal switch limit, not output current
  • 1.2MHz switching, efficiency up to 93%
  • Under-voltage lockout, current limit, thermal shutdown
  • Boost only - it cannot produce less than its input
