Pin Configuration

  • HI-LINK 5V 0.6A Power Converter Module Documentation
  • Pinout Description
  • The HI-LINK 5V 0.6A Power Converter Module has a total of 4 pins, which are labeled as IN, OUT, GND, and Vin. Each pin has a specific function, as described below:
  • Pin 1: IN (Input)
  • Function: Input voltage connection
  • Description: This pin is used to connect the input voltage source (typically a battery or a DC power supply) to the module. The input voltage range is typically between 7V to 24V DC.
  • Connection: Connect the positive wire of the input voltage source to this pin.
  • Pin 2: Vin (Voltage Input)
  • Function: Input voltage sense
  • Description: This pin is used to sense the input voltage and provide feedback to the module's internal voltage regulator. It is not necessary to connect anything to this pin unless you want to monitor the input voltage.
  • Connection: If you want to monitor the input voltage, connect a voltage sensing wire to this pin. Otherwise, leave it unconnected.
  • Pin 3: OUT (Output)
  • Function: Output voltage connection
  • Description: This pin provides the regulated 5V DC output voltage from the module. The output current is limited to 0.6A.
  • Connection: Connect the positive wire of your load (e.g., microcontroller, sensor, or other device) to this pin.
  • Pin 4: GND (Ground)
  • Function: Ground connection
  • Description: This pin provides the common ground connection for the module and the load.
  • Connection: Connect the negative wire of the input voltage source and the load to this pin.
  • Connection Structure:
  • To connect the HI-LINK 5V 0.6A Power Converter Module, follow these steps:
  • 1. Connect the positive wire of the input voltage source (7V to 24V DC) to Pin 1 (IN).
  • 2. Connect the negative wire of the input voltage source to Pin 4 (GND).
  • 3. Connect the positive wire of your load (e.g., microcontroller, sensor, or other device) to Pin 3 (OUT).
  • 4. Connect the negative wire of your load to Pin 4 (GND).
  • 5. If desired, connect a voltage sensing wire to Pin 2 (Vin) to monitor the input voltage.
  • Important Notes:
  • Make sure to use a suitable input voltage source within the specified range (7V to 24V DC).
  • The module can only deliver a maximum output current of 0.6A. Ensure that your load does not exceed this current rating.
  • Use proper wiring and insulation to prevent electrical shock, short circuits, and other hazards.
  • By following these connection instructions and guidelines, you can safely and effectively use the HI-LINK 5V 0.6A Power Converter Module in your IoT projects.
