Product description: S13V10F5 - step-up/step-down converter - 5V 1A - Pololu 4083
Step-up/step-down voltage converter with 5 V output voltage and 1 A current capacity. The input voltage range is from 2,8 V to 22 V. This type of inverter makes it useful in applications where the supply voltage can vary considerably, as with batteries. The efficiency of the regulator ranges from 85% to 95% and can deliver aprox. 1 A depending on the input voltage. It is equipped with undervoltage lockout, output overvoltage protection and overcurrent protection. The over-temperature shutdown function also helps prevent overheating damage, and the soft-start function limits the inrush current and gradually increases the output voltage during startup.

Module terminals
The module has three terminals: input voltage (VIN), ground (GND) and output voltage (VOUT). The input voltage (VIN) is used to supply the converter with a voltage from 2.8 V to 22 V. The VOUT connector carries the 5 V output voltage from the inverter. There is a goldpin solder strip included in the set. With it you can plug module directly into contact board.
Typical inverter efficiency
The efficiency of an inverter, defined as (power output) / (power input), is an important measure of its performance, especially when it comes to battery life or heat generation.
Maximum continuous output current
The maximum output current achieved by the controller varies with the input voltage, but also depends on other factors such as ambient temperature, airflow, and heat absorption. The graph shows the maximum output currents that the regulator can deliver continuously at room temperature, without airflow or additional heat dissipation.
Resting current of the system
The resting current is the current that the inverter uses to power itself, and the graph shows this as the input voltage.
